American Comics Update: The Good Doctor Collection: Strange Tales #118-124: Human Torch, Dr Strange
*Marvel: A good period for Strange Tales from the Good Doctor Collection. In #118-124, not only do we get a stream of the Torch’s more famous villains, such as the Wizard, the Plantman, the Beetle (in his first appearance in #123), and Paste-Pot Pete, there’s also some beautifully crafted self-contained Dr Strange tales in the back by Lee & Ditko. And there’s a whole host of guest stars: the Thing and the rest of the Fantastic Four, Iceman in #120 and, in the Dr Strange story in #123, Thor & Loki (giving us a chance to see Ditko’s unique interpretation of those Asgardians).
