This is cool. This is right at the beginning of The War of The Seven Spheres, in which many nigh omnipotent mystical beings such as The Vishanti, The Trinity of Ashes, The Octessence, The Seraphim, and so forth engage in a 7,000 year long battle. Dr. Strange is one of the highest prized due to his abilities and is sought after simultaneously. He escapes them all.
Thank you for helping!

Just found my scanned Dr Strange collection 😄Strange battling his old mentor, Ancient One, who was summoned by Eternity. Strange makes The Ancient One realize who he is and wins, in away 'beating Eternity''.
to clarify the scan three posts up, strange didn't shoot himself. he was shot after, what he called, the toughest battle of his career. the wound was nearly-fatal, and strange left his body to the care of wong whilst going "astral" for, apparently, the hell of it.
what i don't understand, from that issue, and what i hope is clarified in coming months, is exactly why he needed what he went after in order to accomplish his intended mission. he's the effin' sorceror supreme. he's separated himself and spider-man from space and time, then reconstructed them from absolutely nothing. why can't he just magic this away? [if you don't know what i'm referencing, you didn't buy the issue. good read, and good art. get it.]

I'm almost positive that he did so because he wanted to test the healing power of some serum.
Hold on, I'll post the comic.

I'll scan it and post it....why do I think he allowed himself to be shot?
GARH!
Ok, I read it again.
I admit I don't know where I got that Strange shot himself, but when he was shot, he didn't call it the toughest battle he's ever faced. How he got shot was by Hitler's cursed gun that was able to penetrate his auto-shields because of all the weird shit about it (ahem...PIS). Also, um...Dormammu and Umar combined were unable to break into Strange's house...but a common thug was? WTF?
As seen here.
Strange said the God of Suffering called "Otkid the Omnipotent" whom he had to fight FOR the elixir was one of the hardest battle of his career. (If memory serves me, Otkid was something close to Shuma G in his own realm).
As shown here.

Yeah, I read that Strange The Oath #01, right. That thug even said it was harder to break into the baxter building.
Silver Surfer has said that he could not break into Strange's house.
But, some random thug can? Nah...I bet the thug is someone else or someone new who is very powerful.

Yeah, it was awesome. Strange litterally remade spiderman and himself, body, mind and soul...from nothing.

when i was referencing strange's "toughest battle of his career," i forgot the part where that happened a month or so before he got shot... whoops. i see where my sentence didn't make much sense.
That comic was just damned confusing.
Here, Eternity tells Strange that he (strange) is the most powerful humanoid in existance, and being as such Strange is disrupting the MULTIVERSAL balance of power. Basically, Strange is so powerful that he's throwing the multi-verse off balance.
