QBP #046 - Doctor Strange Sorcerer Supreme #34

Quarter-Bin Podcast #46

Doctor Strange Sorcerer Supreme #34, Marvel Comics, cover-dated March 1991.

"Is There a Doctor NOT in the House?" by Roy & Dann Thomas, with art by Dan Lawlis and Jim Sanders III, with Chris Ivey.

Strange, Druid, Doom, and Doom. There are so many doctors in this issue you'd think it was a medical convention. How many Doctors does it take to screw in a light bulb? That answer is sadly not revealed in this issue, but there are TWO Doctor Dooms in it! And did we mention the cameo appearance by Scarlet Witch? And the journey to Tibet? What can all this mean?
