Dear Dr. Strange,
Thank you for being a doctor who is actually a medical doctor. There aren’t many of those in comics. The only other one I can really think of is Dr. Midnite.
I think outside of that, your origin kinda sucks. Talented yet egotistical doctor gets in car crash and damages his hands so bad he can’t perform surgery anymore, travels world looking for cure, foils murder attempt on hobo’s life, turns out hobo knows magic and teaches it to doctor. I’m surprised that after all this you didn’t just magically heal up your hands.
I played a lot of Marvel: Ultimate Alliance back in the day, and one of the trivia questions was “Where is the Sanctum Santorum located?” I’m still amazed that it has a street address in Greenwich Village. As a haven for all types of totally destructive and unstable magical artifact, should it really be housed in someplace other than a magical pocket dimension that only you can access?
Yours,
Keith McGuffey
