DOCTOR STRANGE: MARVEL'S WEIRDEST SUPERHERO MOVIE EVER
Doctor Strange has been a niche interest ever since he sprang from the peculiar brain of Spider-Man artist Steve Ditko in 1963. While writer Stan Lee provided the mystical gobbledegook (“By the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak!”), the series’ main attraction was Ditko’s vertiginously inventive artwork. Ditko was no hippie, but his ahead-of-its-time blend of Eastern mysticism and trippy visuals made the Sorcerer Supreme the counter culture’s favourite superhero: he was namechecked by Pink Floyd, T. Rex and Ken Kesey’s Merry Pranksters, and beloved by aficionados of hallucinogenic drugs and progressive rock. Still, his adventures were never among Marvel’s top sellers and he’s always been a tough nut for Hollywood to crack. But with great box office comes great responsibility, and Marvel has recently gambled on more obscure characters, Guardians Of The Galaxy, Ant-Man, with knockout results ($773 million and $519 million worldwide respectively). “If we had just made Iron Man 7, people might be getting tired,” says president of Marvel Studios Kevin Feige. “That’s why we want all the movies to be distinct. Doctor Strange is unlike anything we’ve done before.”
