"I was over in Hollywood earlier this year mooching about, and I had a meeting at Disney and the conversation drifted around to Pixar animating a Dr. Strange movie… Now, wouldn’t that be nice."

Now honestly I have got to say I would love to see Pixar work on some Marvel solo films, Maybe making animated features or shorts. But as for Doctor Strange, I believe he deserves nothing less then a live action film. Also with confirmation from Stan Lee that Doctor Strange is indeed in the process of coming to theaters, I assume more news may come in the next few months.

Here are some other ideas he had involving Doctor Strange in the comic book world.

"Another story has started to take shape, probably just starring Dr. Strange and Clea… The name ‘Hollywood’ has a deeper esoteric meaning too. The wood of the Holly tree was used by Druids to make wands. I think Dr. Strange should get involved with The Light-masters of Hollywood.

"I recently suggested to Vertigo a Sandman/Dr. Strange cross-over as I think the characters go together well."

Now this idea I kind of liked.

"I also suggested to Marvel a Lady Gaga/Dr. Strange team-up. A comic and video combination on a new song. It’s only a matter of time before the fantastic visual world of Ditko’s Dr. Strange is brought to a wider public."



I just thought i would add this little part where he talks about Judge Dredd comics, Do to the upcoming reboot Staring Karl Urban

"There is a Judge Dredd short story I am working on as we speak. I haven’t drawn ol’ misery-guts for about twenty years… It’s amazing what you forget. Al Ewing is scripting from a story I pitched. He’s a great talent. I think he will go far."
