Following the surprising events of September 22's (which you can read about in our spoiler-filled Death of Doctor Strange #1 rundown), the next issue is exploring the ramificatio♒ns of what happened and sets up wh💛at could happen next.

🐻And as you can expect, it's ful🐈l of spoilers if you haven't read the first issue.

Be prepared for spoilers about The Death of Doctor Strange #1.

First off, here's⛎ preview by writer Jed MacKay, artist Lee Garbett, and colorist Antonio Fabela:

Following the death of Doctor Strange, a younger version of the Sorcerer Supreme - from his time as a first-year student in the mystic aꦛrts - has appeared. We're nicknaming him 'Doogie Strange,' and he has his hands full - literally - in this The Death of Doctor Strange #2 preview with his older self's one-time lover, Clea🧔.

Doogie Strange wouldn't know much of her, however, as given the clues from his costume he comes from a time where he had only just glimpsed her as a🦹 captive prisoner of Dormammu, rule𒁏r of the Dark Dimension.

She's grown a🌜 lot since then, becoming the Sorceress Supreme of the Dark Dimension.

They have no time to get better acquainted from the looks of this The Death of Doctor Strange #2 preview, however, as they - ൲along with the others who amassed following the older Strange's death - are confronted by three all-new Marvel villains called 'The Three Mothers.'

Created by MacKay and G🥂arbett, the Three Mothers lo♍ok like something out of a Clive Barker nightmare - and their arrival is something Marvel itself is comparing to the debut of Thanos' Dark Order.

Check out Garbett's design🉐s for the Three Mothers - the Wyrd,﷽ the Crown, and the Crawling - here:

The arrival of the Three Mothers and Clea could all be tied to the death of the older Doctor Strange, which resulted in a breakdown of a barrier spell he, as Earth's Sorcerer Supreme, placed on the planet to prevent extra-dimensionꦚal invasions. Three other dimensions broke through at the end of The Death of Doctor Strange #1 already, but these appearances would signal more.

For Clea's Dark Dimension, this comes at a particularly sensitive moment as its despotic tyrant, Dormammu (Clea's uncle), was recently defeated in the finale of 'The Last Annihilation' in (the series's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:surprise final issue) which might leave a power vacu🐷um back in his home real๊m. 

The Death of Doctor Strange #2's primary cover i🦹s by Kaare Andrews. There will be variant covers by Joe Jusko (a re-used Mar🍷vel Masterpieces art), Dan Panosian, RB Silva, and Todd Nauck. Check out the released The Death of Doctor Strange #2 covers so far here: 

The Death of Doctor Strange #2 (of 5) goes on sale on October 20. A pap🐼erback collection of all five issues is scheduled for March 15, 2022.
