Doctor Strange #49
In "This Menace Reborn!", Doctor Strange faces a chilling twist when Baron Mordo strikes from the shadows in Morgana Blessing’s loft, only to be bested by Strange’s astral form taking refuge in Morgana’s white cat. But as the battle ends, Strange doesn’t realize Mordo has also escaped—his essence now bound to the same feline form, lurking in plain sight. Written by Roger Stern and brought to life with striking visuals by Marshall Rogers and Terry Austin, this 1981 Marvel classic blends supernatural tension with a clever, eerie reversal, all wrapped in a cover by Rogers and Austin.
