Marvel Comics Promises To Reveal The Sorcerer Supreme's Killer In Conclusion Of DEATH OF DOCTOR STRANGE

In last week's Death of Doctor Strange #1, we witnessed the shocking death of the Marvel Universe's Sorcerer Supreme. The five-issue series comes our way from writer Jed MacKay with art by Lee Garbett, and promises to explore the mystery behind Strange's demise and introduces the dangerous new threats that emerge when Earth is left without its' fierce mystical protector. The final issue of the series will arrive in January where the murderer’s identity will be revealed.

The Marvel Universe stands at the brink of destruction and the deadly new trio of villains, the Three Mothers and their master, the Peregrine Child, are about to claim victory. Will Strange’s murderer have the last laugh? It all comes down to one last trick from the young, time-travelling Doctor Strange. MacKay, now signed as an exclusive writer for Marvel Comics, promises that this final chapter will open the door to an exciting future for Doctor Strange and Marvel's magical heroes.

"The Death of Doctor Strange will be reaching its conclusion at #5, but it's end will be the beginning for a whole new set of stories on the magic side of the Marvel universe," MacKay says. "The ups and downs of its five-month run have been a treasure to work on, but the folks at Marvel have been filling my pockets more exciting projects coming down the pike in the future, so stay tuned!"

Marvel Comics has also announced that January will see the release of Death of Doctor Strange: Bloodstone written by Tini Howard with art by Ig Guara. In that, Elsa and her brother, Cullen, will have to put their issues aside not only to protect Earth but also to welcome the latest addition to the Bloodstone clan: their long-lost sister! Her awesome set of powers and unique Blood gem have placed a target on her back, and the worst horrors from beyond this realm are on the hunt.
