“The Tribunal!”

In "The Tribunal!", Stephen Strange is sent to the Amphora—a mysterious, demon-guarded vase—to free the imprisoned Zom, a being bound by chains of living bondage. With Umar on Earth destroying his home and summoning the Ancient One, Strange must navigate betrayal and ancient power as Zom’s vengeance threatens to turn against him and his mentor. A bold, visually striking tale from Stan Lee and Marie Severin, with full art and colors by Severin, and a cover by her as well.

The Ancient One sends Strange to the Amphora, a large vase guarded by fiery demons in order to free Zom, a being imprisoned by Eternity. Umar comes to earth, destroys Strange's house and summons The Ancient One. Strange unleashes Zom who he persuades to follow him to Earth. The Ancient One lures Umar to Stonehenge where he defeated Dormammu in the past. Strange surprises Umar who flees back to The Dark Dimension, where Zom cannot find her! Zom had been bound by chains of living bondage by Dormammu and seeks vengeance, but with Umar gone he turns his anger against Strange and his mentor.
