“Enter: Dr. Strange!”

"Enter: Dr. Strange!" kicks off with a delightfully absurd clash when a family of space-traveling hillbillies, the Ding-a-Lings, crash-land in Asgard and start causing chaos. Thor answers the call, ready for battle—until Sif steps in with a surprisingly effective distraction: Hostess Fruit Pies. Sal Buscema’s dynamic art, inked by Joe Sinnott and lettered by Irv Watanabe, brings the cosmic silliness to life, while the cover by John Romita and Marie Severin, inked by Romita and Frank Giacoia, captures the zany energy of the invasion. A 35-cent adventure from 1978 that’s equal parts myth and mischief.
