Doctor Strange #19
In "Lo, the Powers Changeth!", Doctor Strange faces a cosmic threat as Xander and the Creators unleash their scheme to unravel existence, culminating in a devastating earthquake. With time itself turned back by Strange’s desperate magic, he confronts the Ancient One’s offer of oneness—and chooses a path of independence, losing his Sorcerer Supreme title in the process. Written by Marv Wolfman and brought to life with dynamic art by Alfredo Alcala—pencils, inks, and lettering—this pivotal 1976 issue features a cover by Gene Colan and Klaus Janson, capturing the mystical stakes in bold, expressive detail.
