Doctor Strange Page #3

You were misled, my son.

As for Mordo,

I fear he must be watched.

Have you ever held a blade in your life?

To save lives, yes,

but not to take them.

I'm sorry, Mordo.

I didn't mean to...

You insect!

That's quite enough, Mordo.

Why do you interfere?

You are here to train him,

not kill him.

What good is a sorcerer supreme

who cannot defend himself?

What did he mean by that?

Unimportant for now.

What is important

is what you have just accomplished.

Which is what, making him mad?

No. That is easy.

What is difficult is your ability

to absorb Mordo's magic

and then turn it against him...

a unique gift granted to very few.

Mordo obviously didn't appreciate it.

Which is why I will be taking over

your training.

No argument from me.

Wong, what's going on?

The Ancient One will explain

when we reach the city.

The city?

But how are we going to get there?

What just happened?

We're here. That's all it takes.

You had me trek

all the way to Tibet

when you had a back door

the whole time?

You could not have gone

this way until now.

Come. There is more to see.

The space we occupy here on Earth

is shared by many others...

entire worlds.

We are not aware of them,

for they exist

in separate dimensions.

However...

each dimension has a gateway,

one that leads only to this place:

The sanctum sanctorum.

It is called the nexus...

the center of all other dimensions.

As sorcerers,

it has become our duty

to defend it.

From what?

Dormammu.

He consists of corrupted magic,

and dwells in the dark dimension,

a world consumed

by his brutal appetite.

Dormammu crossed over long ago

with a legion of creatures,

and seized the nexus.

This gave him control

over all other dimensions.

But you stopped him.

Not us... the Ancient One.

He drove Dormammu

back into his own world

and sealed the gateway.

And his creatures?

We have slain all but one.

The wing mark.

It will only awaken on the day

of its master's return.

Where is it now?

On its way to the city.

But you're pretty confident

Dormammu can't break

through this, right?

He cannot,

but his influence on the creatures

is unmistakable.

He is coming... somehow.

Do you feel it?

Step away from the nexus,

Stephen.

But if he answers here, then we...

What was that?

Dormammu.

I've seen that face before.

You what?

Where?

In the hospital

when I examined a child.

She was in a coma,

and I saw what she saw.

A child?

Yes, but she wasn't the only one.

There were many,

all having nightmares

of that same face.

Yes.

The answer is there.

In dreams, the pure mind of a child

can sometimes see

through the veil

of other dimensions.

Dormammu has found a way

to reach through that veil.

But, Ancient One,

what does this mean?

If enough veils are passed,

it is a way into our world:

Through the windows of the mind.

We have but one option:

Kill the children before

he can come through.

No, Mordo.

That is never an option.

Wait.

If I could wake them up,

what would happen then?

The windows of the mind

would close.

Go. Try.

We will remain behind

to defend the sanctum.

I will go with him

in case a warrior is needed.

Here.

I have something for you.

Stephen?

The number of patients has tripled.

What are you doing?

Checking other hospitals.

I want to see how widespread this is.

Every coma ward,

they're filled to capacity.

It's okay, Camille.

It's over.

The wing mark.

It is here.

You're safe now.

You dare enter my realm?

I come to offer my help.

Why turn away

from the Ancient One?

Because the Ancient One

has turned away from me.

I could imprison you here...

like the children.

Then Dr. Strange

would then release me,

like the children.

And what is it you offer?

Mordo! Something's wrong.

I think Dormammu

is making his move.

Mordo! We have to...

Are you injured?

I'm okay.

What happened to Mordo?

He has joined Dormammu.

Miro! Adena!

The creature is upon us!

Prepare yourselves.

Adena, home.

Retreat to safety.

No. I will not leave you, Master.

I see you have found

your true place, Mordo...

as the lap dog of Dormammu.

Master!

No.

No!

Not my master.

Wong, we have to find Mordo.

You will need the Eye... of Agamotto

to find him and his master.

But that belongs

to the sorcerer supreme.

Exactly.

And with it, you can unlock the power

that dwells deep within you.

No. Not me.

I don't want it.

Which is why it is your destiny.

So the torch has been passed.

And now it will be extinguished!

Not before the Ancient One is avenged.

Wong!

Bow to the true master, Strange.

My master is dead.

And you will soon follow.

You have failed me.

Wong!

Go, Stephen.

You are all that is left.

Dormammu must be stopped!

Come! The gateway is now open.

Spread into the night.

Feast! Multiply!

For this world is ours!

Who are you?

I'm Dr. Strange,

sorcerer supreme!

You are a child fighting a god!

Yes!

Stephen, listen to me.

Dormammu is a creature

of pure magic.

Use that against him!

Pure magic. Pure magic!

You wield the power of a god?

Then give it to me... all of it!

No! It's not possible!

Well, that is not what I meant,

but nice work, Stephen.

The creatures.

They're still out there.

And we will have long days ahead.

Stephen?

You look...

You look great.

Things have changed for me.

I'm so glad.

But how did you know I was here?

You always come here, Gina.

Wait. Your hand.

It's healed. How did it...

It's a long story.

But I want you to know

that you were right.

It is time I start giving back.

I don't understand.

You will.

Stephen?

Are you all right?

Yes.

I am.

How's the scouting been going?

Very good.

I have discovered

several new prospects...

young, but very promising.

One in particular...

a woman named Clea.
