Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Strange Days Indeed
The Essential Dr. Strange #3 contains the start of the titular character's own comic book. It starts out reasonably strong, but then descends into some below average stories.

The art is really the high-point of this collection. This is one title where I am sad that it is only a b&w reprint as the colors in such an eldritch tale are more important than in a typical superhero book. Here, the normal panel configuration of a comic book is shattered, increasing the surreal and mystic nature ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Essential Preservation of Stories
Marvel has developed a series of reprint books in its "essential" series, with the comic book pages reduced to their black-and-white essentials. Many issues are crammed into this trade paperback, and for those interested in preserving the basic artwork as well as the stories, it's an excellent way to review them without having to find and preserve the early issues of the comic book.

The Doctor Strange comic book reached a high point about the time where Frank Brunner was the principal ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Solid B-list comics
Doctor Strange had an up and down career as a comic-book. Its high points, in my opinions, were the classic and never-equalled run by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko reprinted in the first Essential Doctor Strange; the Lovecraft-inspired run mostly drawn by Barry Windsor-Smith and Frank Brunner (reprinted in Essential Doctor Strange vol. 2) and possibly the Marshall Rogers-illustrated run that will (hopefully) be reprinted in a later volume. Luckily, there are plenty of good moments in between these high marks, ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - not a bad distraction
First of all, let's set the terms of this review. I was aware that this was b/w prior to ordering it and I was okay with that. Also, I had never read even a single issue of Doctor Strange, so I really have no frame of reference with regard to the comic's legacy. At age 30 it has probably been nearly 2 decades since I've read comics at all (although I was a passionate Marvel fan back in the day). Because I spend the bulk of my time reading more complex scientific and literary material, I occasionally like ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Black & white reprints of classic four-color comics...?
I honestly don't get the appeal of these books. Why bother making (or reading) black & white reprints of classic four-color comics...? I mean, yeah, the stories are still great and the original comics are hard to find, but a huge part of what made these comics great was the eye-popping artwork, including the bright primary colors: reading them in dull B&W is just plain wrong. Sure, the printing costs are lower, so you can get more pages for your money, but it's more pages of boring, not more pages of ... Read More
