Alright, I've had quite enough Dr.Strange hype.

Sure, he's a master time manipulator, a master of molecular control. Sure he's blown up dimensions/universes. Sure he was said to be so powerful that he's messing up the balance of the multiverse. Sure his blasts are said to rival the power of a supernova....BUT COME ON! I'm TIRED of the ball licking!

No more Dr.Strange vs Galactus bullshit. Strange is not Abstract just because he has one or two abstract-like feats. He's not more powerful than Odin, he's not more powerful than a lot of people. Stop hyping him so damned much before you force a backlash.

From here on, Strange shouldn't be allowed to fight people above Surfer unless he's on a team.

This shit is just getting old.

I agree... do I need to confirm this again and post the same scans for the 500th time, just to prove a point!!

I think not.

It was much better when people thought Strange would lose to Ironman and I'd prove them wrong. Hell, I had to argue that Blade wouldn't beat Strange.

But, now, he's up against everyone and it's getting old.

I think people are just jealous of the DS respect thread.

😕 Weren't you behind a lot of this hype, with the DS respect thread?

So bascically, you supported Dr.Strange until he was getting put against foes he couldn't possibly beat?

Spoiler:
In the new series "The oath" Strange is shot by a seemingly human level thug in his own home.... i guess not a normal thug, but certainly not an abstract level

becuase the gun the guy used once belonged to hitler, and all that negative spirit energy was able to pierce his force field........knocked my freaking socks off, cuz im like here is a guy who parries blasts from actual demons like mephisto, and really bad mojo guys like Dorrmamu on a reg basis, but an evil gun is gonna take him down?🤨

makes sense to me

honestly, seeing strange

Spoiler:
get shot

I was like, FINALLY!!!!! THEY GOT HUMANS + GUNS RIGHT!

The guy's a beast at the end of the day but there seem's to be alot of misconceptions and understanding about him out there he's only human at the end of the day.

During the Hulk Amenesty he almost got defeated by a spaceship that grabbed him..haha oh lord.

the problem has ALWAYS been that strange is CAPABLE of ludicrous feats. but at the same time, he can seem quite vulnerable. he is enormously difficult to place in any level because more than any character he is defined by who is writing him.

since no one has really been able to get a good, consistent handle on him, he has not been able to sustain a long term book.

it's too bad -- i love the idea of the character. i'd like to see a good, consistent portrayal of him thta doesn't have him pis'ing to wanda or battling in any way against the IG.

🙁

Your first paragraph almost makes it seem like you're being sarcastic. 😂

that's hilarious. that was my ORIGINAL thought, but the rest of the post made me think he was sincere.

hmmm, indeed . . . the little piggy may have pulled one over ole leo's eyes . . .

😖hifty:

Who cares how powerful he is he still dresses like a fruit.

Listen: every now and then, one special hero is selected to be dipped into the Hype Force and come out more powerful than anyone -- comic reader or editor -- has ever dared to dream.

Batman
Wolverine
Now it's Stephen's moment.

The rest of you are just gonna have to wait your turn.

To me, and I've read every Strange comic along with about 80% of his other guest appearances, I'd say Strange's normal power setting is probably above or at Thanos' power level....maybe higher when he uses black magic(he's twice as powerful when he uses white and black magic). With prep, he can run into Odin-esque territory of power.

He can't beat Galactus even though he one shot k.o'd him, he wouldn't be able to do it again if Galactus went totally all out.
