American Comics Update: The Good Doctor Collection: Strange Tales with the Human Torch, the Thing and Dr Strange
*Marvel: A chunky selection from the Good Doctor Collection this week, featuring Strange Tales between #116 and #134. Gradually, the Thing joined the Torch in the lead feature, with some excellent tales involving the Puppet Master, Sub-Mariner, Quicksilver & the Scarlet Witch, the Beatles (yes, those Beatles!), the Mad Thinker, the Watcher and more. And the back-up is those lovely little Dr Strange stories by Lee and Ditko, initially self-contained but developing into a long saga involving Dormammu, Clea and Baron Mordo.
