TODAY'S TOSS-UP (6/15):
Who's rendition of Doctor Strange do you prefer, Steve Ditko's or John Byrne's?

Miller's Daredevil because it was a much longer run and i read it as a teenager; As good as JB is, Ditko's a better fit for the weird, surreal reality of Doc Strange.

Ditko is THE Dr. Strange artist for me.
Apparently I don't like Byrne's stuff very much! I must be here for the free
donuts or something?!

No one did Dr. Strange like Steve Ditko. While he may lack the technical skills of many other artists, his sheer imagination in those Strange Tales issues is just so impressive.
I can understand why some hippies of the late-60's thought that Steve Ditko was tripping on acid when he drew Dr. Strange. The book really is a psychedelic journey - no chemicals required.
(And, again, that's no knock on JB. It's just that everyone's Dr. Strange comes up short compared to Ditko's.)

I've rarely seen JB's Dr. Strange, so I'll go with Ditko. But should John ever take on the good Doctor on a regular basis that may change. I prefer Gene Colan's Dr. Strange over Ditko's however.

GOTTA give Dr. Strange to Steve Ditko. He draws Dormammu's realm like he's been there.

Ditko & Byrne on Doctor Strange (and Byrne & Byrne on Defenders) would be like heaven for me.
