While looking around, Doctor Strange notices that he&#8217;s not alone in his new dwelling. After further investigation, he discovers that <strong>Tyanon<\/strong>&#8216;s familiar is in the house, attempting to open a portal for his mistress to enter into the Earthly plane. Can our freshly trained sorcerer figure out how to prevent an invasion stemming from his new house?<\/p>\n<p>This was a fun story with neat illustrations by Vokes that seem to mix Mignola with Saturday Morning cartoons. It&#8217;s a neat, previously untold tale of Doctor Strange&#8217;s first day in his now-famous brownstone. Interestingly enough, this story was set to be printed in 1998&#8217;s <em>Marvel Universe <\/em>&#8211; but that series was canceled before this issue was published. Luckily, it&#8217;s been brought out of the Marvel Vault and dusted off for our enjoyment!<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cyberspacecomics.com\/blogimages\/recommendometer4.gif\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">On Ebay<\/span>: <a href=\"http:\/\/stores.ebay.com\/CyberspaceComics__W0QQ_sacatZCyberspaceComicsQQ_sidZ13296653?_nkw=%22doctor+strange%22&amp;submit=Search&amp;LH_TitleDesc=1\" target=\"_blank\">Doctor Strange<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/stores.ebay.com\/CyberspaceComics__W0QQ_sacatZCyberspaceComicsQQ_sidZ13296653?_nkw=%22roger+stern%22&amp;submit=Search&amp;LH_TitleDesc=1\" target=\"_blank\">Roger Stern<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/stores.ebay.com\/CyberspaceComics__W0QQ_sacatZCyberspaceComicsQQ_sidZ13296653?_nkw=%22neil+vokes%22&amp;submit=Search&amp;LH_TitleDesc=1\" target=\"_blank\">Neil Vokes<\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">On AtomicAvenue<\/span>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.atomicavenue.com\/atomic\/SellerIssues.aspx?XT=1&#038;T=doctor+strange&#038;S=cyberspacecomics\" target=\"_blank\">Doctor Strange<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Because publishers want you to buy their product every month, comics are typically serial in nature.
