Doctor Strange #4

Doctor Strange #4 takes a fun break away from the magical couple to focus on Wong and W.A.N.D. The characters are portrayed in a fun manner and the art team highlights the capabilities of these magical secret agents. Read Full Review

It's all about Wong as the ongoing story for ‘Doctor Strange' gains a bit more depth with our gaze leaving the Stranges behind for the moment. A fun issue with solid fantastical artwork that works as both a one-off but also an important piece of the overall puzzle. A showcase of how to mix a more classic approach with a more modern story arc focus. Read Full Review

Doctor Strange #4 focuses on an investigation. It initially seemed like an odd choice to separate this issue from Strange himself and put more emphasis on Wong and Pandora. It could come across as filler or a side story. Instead, it is about as on track as the plot could get Read Full Review

Macdonald delivers some impressive, fun and beautifully detailed art throughout the issue. The location changes are beautiful and help showcase the scope of WANDs mission. Read Full Review

After this issue, this storyline is barreling forward full steam ahead, and it doesn't look like it plans on pulling any punches. Read Full Review

Doctor Strange #4 takes a second breather issue in a row to show readers all they ever wanted to know about the Agents of WAND. Despite the lack of Doctor Strange in his own title (he only appears in the last panel), this issue serves as a good primer for WAND fans. That said, Marvel is either going through massive retooling for this series, or MacKay doesn't have a Doctor Strange story to tell and is simply treading water. Read Full Review

I wasn't in love with the art, but even so this book was enough of a delight that I would happily start picking up a W.A.N.D. series

All the way through, I was having a blast with this mad, magical version of Steranko's Nick Fury comics and thinking, "Man, this needs to be its own miniseries!" Then that uppercut of a final scene landed, and it reframed my whole picture of this volume. I am more than satisfied with Stephen and Clea continuing on cutesy one-off adventures if we're gonna cut back to WAND every so often to push the big picture plot forward. And if that plot is headed toward a husband-wife showdown, I doubt I'll be disappointed by the resolution.

This was probably my least favorite issue of the series, but I still enjoyed it. Wong has never been a character I would go out of my way to read a book about, and there isn't that much to help that case here. However, the adventure the himself, Pandora, and Zee go on is pretty fun and I thought it was funny when Billy immediately backtracked after finding out who Wong was. So far, I think one of the things holding this series back is the art. When you read MacKay's Moon Knight, you have the outstanding Alessandro Cappuccio drawing (most of the time). Here, Pasqual Ferry has been the regular artist for the first three issues, and I can't say I'm the biggest fan of his art. It has moments where it's pretty good, and others where it's just no t my favorite. I was interested when I found out there would be a guest artist on this issue, but I think I might like Ferry's art better than MacDonald's. After the next issue, it seems Issue 6 will have Juan Gedeon as the guest artist and I can only hope his art fits better with the story. more

It doesn't bode well for this run having a Wong filler issue so early on. I don't really give a damn about Wong or the tattooed lady.

What the hell is this? A Doc Strange comic with no Doc Strange? Why? Did we really need a WAND filler issue? What real information was generated in this issue that we couldn't have gotten in two pages? This is garbage and unfortunately, I'm dropping this title. This is sad because I really enjoyed the Clea Strange run, but this doesn't have any of that gravitas.

So… once again let me begin by saying I loved he Strange run, loved The Death of Doctor Strange little mini event and I loved he start of this run. However this issue felt like it should have been a separate W.A.N.D. book and not part of this run. You do not hear from Doctor Strange at all in this book till a picture of him on the last panel. This book follows Wong around as he works for W.A.N.D and they are investigating the fact that someone is murdering magic villains all over the place. That is pretty much it. This one was a little bit of a struggle to get through. I hope they get this series back on track with the next issue.
