69-Word Review of “Doctor Strange”

ds_endless_possibilities_poster

If you don’t care that you’ve seen this movie before (*cough* “Iron Man” *cough*, etc.), you will find it enjoyable and very funny. Marvel is sticking too close to its formula. This movie could have really delivered in a lot of ways, but chose to play it safe and instead color by (psychedelic) numbers. And I did enjoy the white female Ancient One, but I felt bad doing so.

The First Time I Heard Of Doctor Strange……

…..was in this “rockcomic” album from Buddah Records, which I had at the age of four or so in 1972. It’s called “Spider-Man: From Beyond The Grave.”

It was a full-length album. The album cover folded out into a centerfold comic pictures that matched the album. So you could “read” the story while listening.
