Scott's Take: Strange Vol 1: I Belong to Death by Jed Mackay

Strange Vol 1: I Belong to Death by Jed Mackay picks up after The Death of Doctor Strange. Doctor Strange is dead and his wife, Clea, is heartbroken. She has agreed to become the Sorcerer Supreme and take his old job. She has to deal with new threats that have arisen since the forces of evil think its open season now that Doctor Strange is dead. She will be a different kind of Sorcerer Supreme. She is more violent than her late husband and does not have the ties to the hero community that her husband had. She was raised to be a warlord and New York’s magical villains are about to learn what that means.  She also has another goal in mind--- to bring Doctor Strange back from the land of the dead. Not that death is going to give up him without a fight.

Featuring great art and tons of action, this is a different kind of book. Clea is a rather different kind of character and it works well in this volume. I am looking forward to the second volume when they do release it. It is currently untitled and it is unknown when it will release.

 

My reading copy came by way of the OverDrive/Libby app through the Dallas Public Library System.
