What is the state of vampires in Marvel? I know the X-men had that big punch up with them like a decade ago, have the vampires been up to anything since then? Who’s in charge of vampires now?

I thiiiiiiiiiink there's some vampire-based event or series in the works? It seems like something that everyone keeps coming back around to for like an issue or two, then moves along to something else

Vampires have also been a big part of Moon Knight and X-terminators. Marvel is not hurting for vampire content lately.

agreed. so much of this series has been about clea thinking about strange (not that it hasn't been good, just saying), it'd be cool to see, now that strange is back, her just doing her own thing

The only reason the series isn't called Bats the Ghost Dog is Marvel are cowards.

I have been loving Strange, and I definitely hope Clea gets to still be a prominent character. I feel it is kinda like what is happening with Superman Son of Kal-El. It totally makes sense why you would replace an interesting lead with a straight white man commercially, but it is also a bummer.

Very interested to see how it turns out. Based on the track recond by the creative team probably well, but sometimes the bosses do what they do.

I mean, yes obviously Dr Strange was coming back. But just because it was inevitable doesn't mean it is necessary a thing to celebrate.

I think the writer guy said on Twitter that the only reason Clea is Sorcerer Supreme right now is so that the MALE (aka best) character can come back and Sorcerer Supreme so hard in her face and embarrass her that she cries and disappears into space.


obviously not really

Books great, I like the creative team, I even said the decision is likely from higher up? Come on, is being unhappy about one less female lead book really beyond the pale? I expect it will be well written and done in the best way possible.

I appreciate all the love shown to the writer because he posts in the thread, but the defensiveness is wild. For the recond Vulpes is one of my favorite current writers. Moon Knight rules, and Black Cat is gone too soon.

even if vulpes didn't post here, the book is still called Strange, and is a story about getting stephen strange back to life. there was no pretending at the outset that this would be a new status quo. stephen is still appearing in other books like this isn't even happening. this isn't like making sam the new captain america and then walking it back from chud backlash, and framing it like this is some anti woke agenda really doesn't read as correct in this instance

OK, I suppose I am just upset that I book I like will make a change I don't prefer much like another book I like is going through a change I don't prefer. A old character replacing a fresh new take on an extremely underused is pretty standard stuff. Great.

I think there's a good story to tell if Stephen is alive but Clea is still Sorcerer Supreme. I do hope that Stephen has to earn the title back somehow.

I really just want Clea to stick around is all.

Clea is badass. She really should stick around in some prominent capacity.

Whatever changes happen in Clea's book, I hope she keeps that "gently caress you I'm the Sorcerer Supreme and I'm going to raise the dead if I want to" energy. I feel like she's someone who will start clawing at the walls if she doesn't have someone to fight, and that's the hero I need right now.

Ooh. I like this idea. Like, the transfer of the title should be perfunctory, but Steven has pissed off so many cosmic entities that it just falls off like tape past its good-by date. And this is them getting back at him? Why? Something something, subtler touch for once, maybe exploiting a weakness, but ultimately it's magic it ain't gotta explain poo poo.

I think we are all missing the biggest question (covers aren't always canon) will Strange stay a silver fox? This is important.
