“Moment of Truth”

"Moment of Truth" in Terrific! #20 (1967) delivers a gripping chapter in Dr. Strange’s ongoing battle against Mordo, with Steve Ditko handling writing, art, inks, and lettering for a deeply personal and visually striking tale. As Strange returns to his Greenwich Village sanctum only to find it infiltrated, he must rely on cunning and the remnants of his mystical knowledge—only to trigger a trap that exposes him to Dormammu’s reach. The story unfolds with quiet dread, anchored in the tension between faith, perception, and the unseen forces at play, all rendered with Ditko’s signature precision. The cover by Jack Kirby and Chic Stone captures the moment’s intensity with dynamic energy.

Dr. Strange reaches his Greenwich Village home safely but discovers one of Mordo's followers has taken over his sanctum. In a hidden cave in Tibet The Ancient One's servant questions the meaning of his ailing master's word "Eternity". Strange bluffs his way into his sanctum but when he attempts to consult the All-Seeing Eye he discovers it's been booby-trapped, sending a signal to Mordo and Dormammu of his whereabouts. Strange battles Mordo, but soon realizes his foe is more powerful than usual; when Dormammu speaks through Mordo he comprehends why as he vanishes from sight.
