Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme #6

In "The Faust Gambit Part II: Demonic Re-Possession," Doctor Strange faces a chilling supernatural threat as the marriage of Sara Krowler to Nikolai Mordo becomes a pivotal step in a dark ritual orchestrated by her father, Viscount Heinrich Krowler. Written by Roy Thomas and R. J. M. Lofficier and brought to life with moody intensity by Tom Sutton’s art and Christie Scheele’s colors, this 1989 Marvel classic deepens the stakes of mystical conflict with a plot rooted in sacrifice, legacy, and forbidden magic. The cover by Butch Guice captures the tension with a haunting, dramatic portrait that perfectly frames the story’s escalating dread.
