What a Strange cover! I love it! Ohhmmmmm.
Mmmm- Marvel magic mystical masterpiece!
OMMMMMMMMMM! Shhh, let's keep it down, Doc is communing with the universe. Love the multi-tone usage, too! So many great tricks to make this cover pop with Sorcerous Power. The little details, like putting stars in the empty Eye of Agamotto holder, are top-notch. Spellbinding!
Truly mystical! Congrats, Bill! And I fully agree with you that, despite the short run, the Rogers/Austin team created one of the definitive versions of Doctor Strange...
"A tantric exercise Clea, it's quite useful for, err, mystic growth"
A perfect sentence for Freudian reading. Change the last words to, my stick growth. Well, Magicians are known to be fond of using their wands. Cannot remember Stephen ever using his in a comic (most were pg in nature) but am sure hes got one hidden away.
Magnificent cover by the masters - congratulations my friend !!!!
Incredible pickup.
Spectacular Bill, Rogers on Dr. Strange is amazing!
I can honestly say this is spectacular.
Incredible cover !! This creative team is at the top of their game !
Stunning cover, huge congrats!
Fantastic. Iconic. A perfect Dr. Strange image. It fits your collection beautifully. Congrats, Bill!
Wow I love Marshall's small but important run on Dr. Strange and this is his best cover. Like most of his career he seemed to only work on a book for less than 12 issues but he had a great style and Austin inks are perfect as always.
Oh my... I love this. Congratulations!
Incredible! Love the details of the title shadows. Congrats!
Best Dr Strange cover ever? Quite possibly the best I've ever seen. This is perfection!
Truly magical!
MYSTICAL and MAGICAL!!!
Every little thing he does is magic … Not least, being able to assume that pose :) Congrats on this iconic Strange cover, Bill!
Love this! I believe this all too short run with Marshall/Austin really became one of the best known and loved set of stories with the good Doctor.
Wow, easily my favorite Rogers/Austin Dr. Strange cover, and an iconic masterpiece, huge congrats!!✨
Simply incredible Doc image. Bravo!
My moment of zen!
WOW, Great cover by Rogers and Austin!!
WOW, Great cover by Rogers and Austin!!
Quintessential Dr. Strange, back when his vibe matched perfectly with the country's zeitgeist!
Magical cover Bill. Wow!
Prime (non Batman) Rogers/Austin Dr Strange cover for sure. The title benefited from so many excellent artists under Roger Stern's tenure.
Really nice to see you add this to your spectacular collection. As a title (and character), Doctor Strange probably doesn't get as much attention for its history of great art the way some other titles do. Most of us can rattle off all the great artists that worked on books like X-Men, Spider-Man, or Avengers. Yet most of us don't think of DS in that way. But just think about the line-up over the years. Ditko, Windsor-Smith, Colan, Kane, Brunner, Golden, Nowlan, Paul Smith, and of course Marshall Rogers. This cover is about as good as it gets from one of those all-stars. Congratulations buddy!
Superior cover in a superior collection - and don't forget Everett also had a short run on Dr. Strange!
It's a shame we didn't get to see a longer Dr. Strange run from the Rogers/Austin team!
Your write up is perfect, and this cover is AWESOME!!!
Fantastic!
BOOM! Heluva drop, Bill!
Wow! A Marshall Rogers Dr. Strange cover! His run was iconic!
The music Rogers and Austin make is decidedly GROOVY!
Hypnotic! Rogers and Austin's Marvel mystic masterwork! So many levels of depth with the smooth inks against the screen tone areas to expand the setting beyond the confines of what we perceive with just our eyes.
dang, that is an awesome piece of art, congrats!!!
What a wonderful cover - I have to get me some Dr. Strange stuff as well. Very nice!!
An amazing cover by the legendary team of Rogers and Austin. The use of screen tones here is superb. What a great piece! Congratulations!
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Love seeing all that texture and work on the page--every centimeter of the cover was considered and handled in a thoughtful way. Such care and craft is remarkable. Congrats!
Fantastic Dr. Strange cover! It's up there!
Stunning cover of the sorcerer Supreme. Congrats Bill
One fo the all-time classic and greates Doctor Strange covers and not coincidentally, also happens to be done by one of the all-time classic penciller & inker teams. Not only is this an exquisite masterpiece of form and design by Rogers, but TONS of credit must be given to inker Terry Austin, because he brought so much and was responsible for the overall finished look of Rogers' art on every project they worked on together.
Gorgeous addition to a great collection!!
So perfectly magical and mystical! An amazing portrayal of Doctor Strange by an incredible artistic team!! In fact, this post of yours inspired me to watch Multiverse Of Madness again tonight. Major congrats!
Killer Bill! Love it!
The combo of pure art with the screentone...must be some MAGICAL viewing. Classic Doc pose, and doesnt' he have just the best title lettering ever?! Talk about matching the character! Awesome stuff, Bill - congrats!
Bill,
Congratulations on a truly amazing and iconic Dr. Strange piece! Roger's symmetry and design is always wonderful and with the addition of Austin's inks, it is a true work of art and a fantastic cover. Very jealous!
I BELIEVE!!! One of your best posts ever. Truly spectacular! Congratulations!
Holy smokes. That is stunning!!
Absolutely iconic image! Stunning!
Doctor Strange really is my favorite Marvel character... you know cause i'm a weirdo! This is such a fantastic cover Bill!
The Eye of Agamotto at the bottom really throws it over the edge for me! Just superb composition! And the cosmic background... It's just such a well done Strange cover! Congrats!

Yes, this is just perfect. How I lament that Rogers left us at such a relatively young age.
superb fantastic wonderful cover!!!!!
Very beautiful cover, of the Bronze Age, congratulations Bill
Terrific scan - you can tell that's its old school!
A big part of the elements of the Doctor Strange's universe in one cover by two superlative artists!!!!! I love it, thats all!!!!! Huge congratulations in this new amazing addition to your colllection!
If you were to picture in your head what you'd want in a Dr. Strange cover it would probably be identical to this. Actually, this is probably better. Fantastic pickup, Bill.
Stunning
A truly iconic cover of the good doctor! The pose and composition come together for such a beautiful end result. I'm channeling some very STRANGE vibes from this piece!
A majestic image! Fantastic!
Having fallen in love with this art team on their Detective Comics run, I was super excited when I found out Rogers and Austin were teaming back up to take on Doctor Strange. Except for its briefness, it was as good as I'd hoped. Big congrats on getting this superbly iconic cover.
Marshall Rogers at his best!
Wow - an outstanding example!!
Perfect Dr Strange cover!
Absolutly hypnotic cover Bill !
Rogers and Austin work on this one is Top
Another gem to your big big gallery...
The early 80's Marvel Covers are amazing and iconic! I absolutely love the textures on this piece. It must be increcible to look at in person. Congrats.
At least as good as anything I saw at SDCC! Monster pickup
WHATTHEAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH !!!
You sandbagging son of a gun. Wowwwwwww!!!! I'm done. Crazy love this piece. What a staggering collaboration. I'm so pleased for you Bill. GrapeApe approved. 4 stars cuz that's how high I go !!!!!
Lots to love here but especially (for me) the background.
And, man, the published cover does not do justice to the original.
Another beauty in your incredible collection ~ Congrats Bill!
Marshall Rogers was just so darn talented. From Batman to Silver Surfer, I could not get enough of his work. This Doctor Strange cover is a perfect example of how amazing he was. Congrats!!!
Great cover, the tones and spot blacks really make the negative space pop!
Fantastic cover Bill. The background work done by Austin really adds to the magic that is this cover.
With all the symmetry, I could see Rogers putting more effort into the design than actually drawing. Austin zipped the heck out of this piece.
I think this is the single best Dr. Strange oa I've ever seen. A visual masterpiece that uses every effect to its fullest. Wow, Bill!!!
Classic cover with Dr Strange, great pickup!! Congratulations
What a spellbinding cover!!! Congrats Bill!
There's no such thing as the perfect Doctor Strange cover...oh...nevermind. Congratulations on landing the perfect Doctor Strange cover!
Just jaw-dropping, so many interesting techniques employed on this cover. Big congrats, and thanks for sharing Bill!
Love the use of screentones here, and the blue really helps give the image some additional depth. Crazy to think how much of that was washed out in the final published version. Congrats!
The shading on this cover is incredible. Great piece!
Perefection if you are looking for Dr. Strange doing Strange things. Love the art, the symmetry, everything. This is a stunner! Congrats
Staggeringly cool cover, from a top artistic team operating at their peak prowess, on one of my favorite characters. Extra points that the more intrusive cover dress elements (including the despised UPC box) are missing from the board, which really showcases how great the art is!
Strange and Hypnotic !!!
beautiful cover with master level page building. i really do enjoy how the cover appears full with a sense of calm. the attention of details from the lighting scope on the bottom ball of magic is mastefully detailed on the rest of the cover. i could go but i rather just say, you have a home run good buddy. thanks for sharing.
Fantastic cover!!! Congrats
I remember seeing this advertised, it was so exciting the Batman dream team on Strange, it didn't disappoint. This cover distills the thrill!
¡Ay, caramba! Very, very nice!
Epic cover!!!
I have a soft spot for Marshall Rogers, possibly because I loved those old Englehart/Rogers Detective issues so very much.
However, whlie the Detective run may have been more seminal and may have had a bigger effect on the character, by the time they got to Dr. Strange, the amazing team of Rogers/Austin had gotten even better, and was creating even more spectacular imagery, including this quite iconic gem. Congratulations on a magical aquisition.
What does Doctor Strange look like? He looks like this. Rogers and Austin perfectly capture the essence of the character.
What an iconic cover from the dynamic duo of Roger's & Austin.
