“The Bouncing Ball of Doom!”

In Strange Tales #131, Steve Ditko and Stan Lee deliver a pulse-pounding chapter of the Sorcerer Supreme’s journey, as Stephen Strange flees across the far East, pursued by Mordo and his growing army—unaware that Mordo’s strength now springs from the dark realm of Dormammu. With the Wraiths closing in, Strange must rely on cunning and illusion to vanish from sight, setting his sights on a desperate escape to New York City. The cover, a dynamic collaboration by Bob Powell, Steve Ditko, and Jack Kirby, captures the tension with a striking, otherworldly flair.
