American Comics Update: The Good Doctor Collection: Strange Tales #112-113
*Marvel: I always thought it a bit odd that after the launch of Dr Strange in Strange Tales #110 and #111, two issues followed that didn’t feature the Master of the Mystic Arts. I don’t know… maybe they were waiting for reader feedback to come in. Nevertheless, there is much to enjoy in Strange Tales #112 & #113. The Eel and the Plantman may not be Marvel’s most evil or cosmic villains, but both went on after their debut appearances here to become regular denizens of the MU. Plenty of the Fantastic Four in #112, and the debut of Doris Evans (remember her?) in #113. Both issues feature superb Steve Ditko fantasy back-ups.
