    DR. STRANGE VS IRON MAN!..No, not that Dr. Strange.

    Spoilers ahead.

    This time Iron Man actually faces a real "Super villain" and he is kind of awesome. Which doesn't mean his plan makes that much sense but I guess it is the thought that counts. What happens is this, Dr Strange needs to get out of jail to meet up with his daughter. Why? Just because he wants to see her. Then he takes a turn for the worse and decides to try and take over the worlds because EVIL! Iron Man is actually kind of in the shadow here. Which is odd because he did some cool stuff in the beginning and afterwards became a side character almost.. or at least that is how it felt.

    Jack Kirby's art is always welcome... always.

    4/5. Solid issue.

    Edit: I looked it over again and realized that he didn't decide to take over the worlds for no reason. He did it to give to his daughter. My bad.

I look forward to seeing his progression from villain to hero and I wouldn't be surprised if the seeds for that transition are as a result of the end of this issue.This comic move...

      The insidious Doctor Strange makes his first appearance in this issue of Tales of Suspense and unfortunately it's a bit of a bum note to start off on. Like a lot of villains thus far in the Marvel canon, motives are sketchy and powers are even more ambiguous. Far from what he would eventually become under the guise of Steve Ditko (though it's popularly thought that this incarnation has nothing to do with the actual Dr. Strange created by Steve,) Lee and Kirby's Strange is something of a mad scie...
