About the series
In 2012, Matt Fraction and Terry Dodson brought an offbeat, cosmic corner of the Marvel Universe to life with this short-lived but memorable two-issue series. A strange alliance of Doctor Strange, Namor, Silver Surfer, and Iron Fist—alongside Betty Ross—finds itself drawn into a conflict that feels both mystical and world-spanning. Published under the Marvel banner, this brief run showcases Fraction’s knack for character-driven weirdness and Dodson’s lush, dynamic art. It matters as a compact, high-concept team-up that leans into the oddball chemistry of its heroes without overstaying its welcome.
