Uncanny Origins #12

In "Physician, Heal Thyself!", Stephen Strange's descent from a brilliant surgeon into a bitter, disillusioned man begins when a tragic accident ends his career. Seeking redemption, he turns to the mystical arts under the Ancient One, only to find his path shadowed by rivalry with fellow student Baron Mordo. Written by Len Wein and illustrated by Mark Campos, with colors by Bob Sharen and letters by Jack Morelli, this 1997 Marvel origin story explores the roots of one of the Marvel Universe’s most enigmatic sorcerers. The cover, by Marcelo Campos, captures the weight of Strange’s transformation.
