Marvel Collectors' Item Classics #14
In "The Mysterious Molecule Man!", Doctor Strange confronts a spellbinding deception that tests his mystical senses and wits.

Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Steve Ditko, with colors by Stan Goldberg and letters by Art Simek, this 1968 classic features a striking cover by Jack Kirby and John Verpoorten, inked by George Roussos and John Verpoorten.

Strange practices the art of levitation. Meanwhile, in faraway Asgard, home of the Norse Gods, Loki, God of Mischief, plots as always. He contacts Strange and tries to convince him that he is a prisoner of Thor, who is evil and deceiving his father. Strange uses a spell to take Thor's hammer, but on examining it, can sense no trace of evil. Realizing he's been had, Strange battles Loki, who later swears vengeance against the mage.
