Art in this book is one of the most beautiful I ever saw (in same vein as The Redeemer (Elektra vs Logan) but more epic in my opinion). Story is intriguing and ending more than satisfying.

I had an opportunity to purchase this one together with one other Dr Strange graphic novel. If you manage to get your hands on a copy I wholeheartedly recommend it.

This dysfunctional trio of troublemakers seem to always carry the end of the world around with them wherever they go. They get their asses kicked every issue and somehow still win in the end. Pretty cool story though.
