COMICS: Marvel To Publish New DOCTOR STRANGE Series In 2015

A new report has revealed that Stephen Strange will be getting his own ongoing series for the first time in years, with a creative team locked in and ready to go for a launch next year. Hit the jump for more details.

Though he's made frequent appearances in recent Marvel titles, including Jonathan Hickman's New Avengers and this year's Original Sin, Doctor Strange hasn't headlined his own comic since a 2006 miniseries. Well, that's set to change, with Bleeding Cool (they've been busy today) hearing word that the Sorcerer Supreme will get an ongoing series, expected to start in April or May 2015. The creative team has been confirmed, but remain a mystery to us and Bleeding Cool themselves. Though the Benedict Cumberbatch-starring film is likely still several years away, it's safe to assume that this will help boost publicity for the character, much like how Marvel reintroduced Guardians of the Galaxy with Marvel NOW! in January 2013 to generate interest in the team way ahead of the movie. Not sure when (or if) we'll hear confirmation of this rumour, but stay tuned to ComicBookMovie when the official news drops.

Enough with that character already. He's cool and would be okay in a team movie, but I don't see the point in making a film just about him.
Where's my Black Widow movie? Captain Marvel? Black Panter? I don't care about Strange or Ant-man at all...

I feel that Black Panther will be next. Looking forward to that choice now that the Strange casting is finally out of the way.

I will buy/read the comic if it has a quality creative team.
I think Cumberbatch will do a great job,he's a solid actor.
He has a good physical bearing to him,tall as I think Dr.Stephen Strange should be especially with his long Cloak Of Levitation.

Benedict also has a cool deep voice & as Dr. Strange it will be majestic sounding as he utters these phrases:
"By the Flames of the Faltine!"
"By the Sons of Satannish!"
"By the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth!"
"By the Ruby Rings of Raggadorr!"
"By the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak!"
"By the Deathless Vishanti!"
"By the Vapors of the Vishanti!"
"By the Eye of Agamotto!"
"By the Vapors of Valtorr!"
"By the Images of Ikonn!"
"By the Demons of Denak!"
"By the Fangs of Farallah!"
"By the Mystic Moons of Munnopor!"
"By the Shades of the Seraphim!"
"By the Omnipotent Oshtur!"
"By the fires of Ikthalon!"
"By the Wondrous Winds of Watoomb!"
"Hocus Pocus!"

Since marvel is cancelling FF, I hope the new creative team on Doctor Strange is James Robinson and Leonard Kirk.

Lets hope that the Cumberbatch rumor is fake and Marvel doesn't mention him as Strange for the movies during the liveblog.

Also its time for him to have a solo series now. Stories with him in it are always good. Especially when he's the focus.

I don't really care it this is only happening because of the movie. I've wanted a series with Doctor Strange for a while. Hope they get a good team for it.

I hope it's someone that's willing to go really creepy with it.
