Stephen Strange’s journey from an arrogant surgeon to the Sorcerer Supreme closely follows Strange Tales #110 (1963). After losing the use of his hands in a car accident, he travels to Kamar-Taj in search of healing. The MCU sticks to this origin by showing his struggles and doubts as he learns magic under the Ancient One. His training pushes him to let go of pride and embrace his new role as Earth’s protector. The adaptation highlights the mystical elements of the comics without losing focus on Strange’s character growth. It introduces the magical side of Marvel while staying grounded in his transformation.
