Doctor Strange #175

This December 1968 issue of Marvel's Doctor Strange arrives with a cover that plunges the Master of the Mystic Arts straight into supernatural peril — a colossal, grinning demonic face looms over the scene as Doctor Strange, bound by swirling golden energy bands, struggles against the threat promised by the tagline "Unto Us… the Sons of Satannish!" Below, a frightened civilian and a woman look on helplessly amid a chaotic cityscape, while a smaller inset shows Strange summoning his power against the darkness. The cover, rendered by Gene Colan, Marie Severin, and Tom Palmer, balances dread and dynamism in a way that captures late-'60s Marvel horror-adventure at its most imaginative, with Roy Thomas and Gene Colan steering the interior story.
