The Demon and Doctor Strange



The Demon is one of those characters that brings out the best in artists.  His hellish appearance allows them to take plenty of creative licence while still retaining the classic look of the character.  Jack Kirby, John Totleben, John Byrne, Mike Mignola, Bruce Timm, Val Semeiks and others have given us many varied takes on Etrigan, each one cool in its own way.

This would be a fun match up to see, I think.  They are each well versed in the mystic arts, but have vastly different styles of utilizing that knowledge.

    Thanks Guys... hopefully the best is yet to come! We haven't even gotten to the larger size covers yet (around issue #134), so stay tuned!

    I was a DC/Marvel kid growing up which is why they will always be widely featured here - especially early on... but as time goes on you will see more and more characters from other publishers. Issues #86 and #91 coming up should please you.
