Marvel Comics

Jed MacKay's Doctor Strange run (2023–2024) is the most critically acclaimed take on the character in a generation — a series that launched in the immediate aftermath of the 'Death of Doctor Strange' event and rebuilt the character from the ground up. MacKay writes Strange as a genuinely fallible, deeply human figure whose mastery of magic comes at a cost, exploring the emotional and ethical dimensions of his role with a sophistication rare in contemporary superhero comics. With Pasqual Ferry's stunning artwork giving the Sanctum Sanctorum and Strange's mystical conflicts a fresh visual identity, this run is already being discussed as among the definitive modern takes on Marvel's Sorcerer Supreme.
