In December, Marvel will relaunch the Doctor Strange series once again with Dr. Strange: Surgeon Supreme, by Mark Waid and Kev Walker.
Strange, of course, was originally a world-renowned surgeon until an accident crushed his hands. While on a quest to receive mystic healing from the Ancient One, he took a different path, learning sorcery and becoming the Sorcerer Supreme. But what would happen if Strange's hands were no longer injured? The new book aims to explore just that.
In Waid's current run, Strange's surgical prowess was required to aid his magical skills in order to stop a horde of demons from infecting humankind.
