“While the World Spins Mad!”

In "While the World Spins Mad!", Doctor Strange confronts a chilling mystery that blurs reality and illusion, beginning with a near-fatal accident and spiraling into a surreal encounter with a doppelgänger who claims he’s already lost. Written by Barry Smith and Stan Lee, with art by Barry Smith and inks by Dan Adkins, this 1972 Marvel Premiere issue delivers a mind-bending tale of identity and unseen forces. The striking cover by Barry Windsor-Smith and Frank Giacoia captures the eerie tone of a story where the line between mind and madness is dangerously thin.
