“Nightmare!”

In "Nightmare!", Doctor Strange faces his most terrifying trial yet as he ventures through a hidden underground tunnel, only to confront a deadly disintegrator ray and the cunning sorcerer Yandroth. With his mind already slipping from his body, Strange must battle not just Yandroth’s monstrous Ultra-Spectrum Laser, but the towering Voltorr—a lightning-powered robot that threatens to end him for good. Written by Jim Lawrence and Dan Adkins, with art and inks by Dan Adkins, and a cover by Gil Kane, John Romita, and Frank Giacoia, this 1975 Marvel classic delivers a pulse-pounding clash of magic and machine.

Strange continues thru the underground tunnel until he comes to a large set of doors. Upon getting them open, he finds a "Disintegrator" ray is waiting for him. After he takes it out with the "Flames of Faltine", Yandroth realizes his magic is more "potent" than he "calculated", and uses an "Ultra-Spectrum Laser" to incinerate Strange's brain! But as Yandroth gloats to the imprisoned Victoria, he doesn't realize that Strange is not dead, but has mentally left his body. Things soon come down to a running fist-fight, until Yandroth summons "Voltorr"-- a large lightning-wielding robot!
