With Steve Ditko's haunting art and Stan Lee's sharp storytelling, this 1972 Alan Class issue delivers a chilling psychological twist, as Strange outwits his foe not with magic, but with a mind game. The cover by Joe Maneely captures the dread with a striking, shadowed image of a man trapped in darkness.
In "The World Beyond," Doctor Strange, exhausted from battling supernatural threats, slips into sleep without securing his defenses—only to awaken imprisoned in the Nightmare World. Trapped by the ancient entity Nightmare, who boasts of his boredom and hunger for new prey, Strange must outwit his captor using only his wits. The story unfolds as a tense psychological duel, where reality itself becomes the battleground.
