"BLOOD IN THE AETHER" STARTS NOW! After the Empirikul destroyed almost all the world's magic and nearly killed Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme must try and build himself back up. Witness the return of BARON MORDO! But what effect did the Empirikul attack have on him?!

Behold the return of Doctor Strange's classic rogues' gallery starting with...BARON MORDO!

"BLOOD IN THE AETHER" CONTINUES! Doctor Strange's Rogues Gallery continues take advantage of his weakness. THIS ISSUE- Satanna and Master Pandemonium put Strange through his own personal hell.

In the epic "Last Days of Magic," MR. MISERY helped Doctor Strange defeat the Empirikul. But don't misunderstand, Misery is no hero, and he aims to show Strange the meaning of his name.

Mister Misery is looking to inflict maximum pain on Doctor Strange by attacking one the Sorcerer Supreme's closest allies. But Strange won't stand for it and gets help from THOR!

Mister Misery has kidnapped Wong and is using everything Strange's friend and companion knows about the Sorcerer Supreme. A compromised Strange must find a way to defeat the sadistic entity without killing Wong!

SECRET EMPIRE TIE-IN! New York City is under attack by dark forces, and only Doctor Strange has a shot at saving it. But it's quite a longshot! And welcome new ongoing writer DENNIS HOPELESS (ALL-NEW X-MEN, SPIDER-WOMAN, JEAN GREY) and artist NIKO HENRICHON (Pride of Baghdad, NEW MUTANTS).

Clea comes back into Doctor Strange's life as he's picking up the pieces from the worst beating he's ever taken. And she's going to make that battle look like a walk in the park. Also in this issue… WHO ARE THE SORCERERS SUPREME?!

Evil is everywhere and the world needs the Sorcerer Supreme more than ever. But is the world ready for LOKI: SORCERER SUPREME? He has the cloak, the spells—he's even got Zelma Stanton as his assistant (and possibly more?) — but is this the chance he needed to become a hero, or is the god of lies dangerously close to unlimited power? And what happened to STEPHEN STRANGE?

Loki continues to protect the world from magical threats, but… That can't be all that he's after, can it? Stephen Strange certainly doesn't trust the God of Lies and Mischief. The play that Strange makes at the end of this issue will shake the Marvel U to its core!

Doctor Strange isn't getting anywhere taking Loki on by himself, so he's changing the venue. The former Sorcerer Supreme goes to Asgard for help, and they aren't exactly welcoming. But don't worry, Strange didn't come alone…YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHO GUEST-STARS IN THIS ISSUE!

LOKI: SORCERER SUPREME Part 4! Doctor Strange has acquired the biggest weapon he could imagine to finally take back his Sorcerer Supreme title from Loki. But will it be enough? The life of someone Stephen cares about lies in the balance, and where Loki goes, innocent life doesn't always stay safe…

LOKI: SORCERER SUPREME PART 5! Get ready for a super-powered wizard's duel in the Mighty Marvel Manner! Loki, Lord of Liars, versus Stephen Strange, the former Sorcerer Supreme! And this time, way more is on the line than the title. Will Loki gain the spell so dangerous, Stephen even hid it from himself? And how will Strange pay for the magic he'll need to defeat a god?
