Doctor Strange Gets a New #1 From Jason Aaron and Chris Bachalo After Secret Wars
Thor writer Jason Aaron and veteran X-Men artist Chris Bachalo will team for Doctor Strange, launching after the events of Secret Wars, Entertainment Weekly reports.
"We wanted a Doctor Strange who was always having to work for what he gets, and to show that when he shows up and uses his powers, it's not like Captain America throwing his shield or Thor throwing his hammer," Aaron says of what makes this version of Doctor Strange different. "Strange has to worry about repercussions that those other heroes don't have to worry about, because he's a Sorcerer Supreme. We're talking about the forces of magic. So whatever he does has repressions. Any of this stuff with magic, there's always a cost to it. I think that's kind of the only rule of magic we ever really talk about—everything he does, there's a price to it. So he always has to kind of balance those skills and worry, "if I save the day here, what repercussions will that have for me, or elsewhere in the world? We liked him having to deal with that, and liked him being able to get his hands a little dirty, rather than just having him stand around, waving his hands and saving the day."
