“Almost a Good Idea...”

The classic Marvel quartet reunites in this 2005 five-issue limited series, with Kevin Maguire's cover presenting Doctor Strange conjuring a glowing magical effect at center, flanked by a scowling Hulk looming large behind him, Namor the Sub-Mariner to the left, and a sword-wielding Silver Surfer to the right. Giffen, DeMatteis, and Maguire — the creative team behind some of Marvel's most beloved ensemble work — bring their sharp sensibilities to "Almost a Good Idea...," promising the kind of character chemistry that made this lineup so compelling in the first place.
