Doktor Strange der Magier #5

In "... während die Welt wartet!", Strange finds himself caught between realms as Umar’s machinations draw him back into the fray—aided by Clea and Victoria Bentley’s desperate gambit. With Dormammu’s defeat sealed by his own vow, the balance of dimensions trembles, and a surprising offer from Dr. Benton threatens to pull Strange into a new kind of battle—one not fought with magic, but with medicine and memory.

In his European castle, Baron Mordo schemes to steal the secrets of his former master, The Ancient One, by sending his spirit to Tibet to have Hamir poison the Ancient One’s food. From his New York sanctum, Strange feels the danger and answers Mordo’s challenge with a spirit-form duel that tests their mastery of magic. The Ancient One later warns Strange that Mordo remains a threat—forever, as long as he lives.
