Doctor Strange from Strange Tales #133
Script: Stan Lee • Letters: Sam Rosen
First Appearance: Shazana, the Queen
Villain: Shazana
Guest Appearance: Ancient One, Clea, the Queen
Cameo: Baron Mordo, Dormammu
Letters Page: Page One
Baron Mordo and Dormammu consult with each other on their next move to find and defeat Dr. Strange. Meanwhile, the young woman named Clea fears for the life of Dr. Strange, who happens to be launching through multi-dimensions before landing in a strange world far away from Earth. He meets a young woman who says she was Queen of this region before her half-sister, Shazana, led a coup and took over. Dr. Strange offers to help, but when the pair go to greet Shazana, she overwhelms Dr. Strange, who is still weak from his inter-dimensional traveling, with her mystical powers. She imprisons her half-sister, and is determined to make Dr. Strange suffer further. She is distracted by a spell Dr. Strange casts, which buys him some time to recuperate.
Dr. Strange uses his powers to see the past through the eyes of Shazana's pet. He sees a scene unfold in which Shazana stole a magical globe from a magician. She killed the magician and used the globe's spells to take over the land, then hid the globe under her throne. With his mystic eye, he coordinates with the rightful Queen to help him take over Shazana's power. They make it to her throne room and destroy the globe, causing Shazana to lapse into insanity. The Queen takes over her duties, and thanks Dr. Strange before he goes back into the dimensional stream to get back to Earth.
