Doctor Strange
DoctorStrangeis a bit surly , a bit prickly , he often lacks a common sense of humour . Sometimes ( though Benedict Cumberbatch ’s portrayal is amazing ) one has to inquire why anyone would want to partner up and lick with Strange at all . The fact , however , remains that Strange is very powerful , very competent , and many Hero of Alexandria do bask working with him ( if only because he knows how to get the job done ) .
It may be more interesting to get wind who likes working with Strange than who does n’t . While we wait on Strange ’s 2d stand - alone photographic film he has quite a history in the comics since 1963 , so here are a few matchups that would both be enjoy or suffered through by our favorite .
Love - Wong
Strange ’s ever - present assistant and sidekick Wong must love working with the doctor because , at the very least , he deposit around . In the comics , Wong came to America to attend to Doctor Strange under orders from The Ancient One .
In the comicsWongis far less of a magic - user , depending more on his strength and martial fine art to assist Strange who , in turn , can assist Wong in producing spells that he could n’t do on his own . The give and take of their relationship , along with their different skill sets , makes them a especially well - matched team in the face of peril .
Don’t - Iron Man
Iron Man and Doctor Strange may be responsible for saving the universe ( give thanks you ) inAvengers : Endgame , but their relationship started off differently in the strip . Both characters were incredibly similar when they premier , being cocky gifted womaniser ( with a taste for particular facial whisker ) .
But that does n’t stand for that Iron Man / Tony Stark in particular enjoys working with the doctor . they both turn their sprightliness around in Asia too . While in more late years Tony has called on Strange for help ( and insisted that they were " facial hair bros " ) they ca n’t have been too concerned in one another since they did n’t gather in the comics until2005 .
Love - Spider-Man
Even is Peter thinks that Doctor Strange is only using his " made up name",Spider - Manis always quick for a powerful team up with the more seasoned of the supers he comes into contact within the MCU . In the comic al-Qur’an of the 2000s Strange was a regular inThe Amazing Spider - Man , indite by J. Michael Straczynski .
In the " Spider - Totem " arc of that series , there were questions kick upstairs about whether or not Peter Parker ’s exponent were more magic trick - based . Obviously , the major magician of the Marvel world would mould Spider - Man as he considered it .
Don’t - Star Lord
As in the Marvel Cinematic Universe , Star - Lord and Doctor Strange met as the man was about to stop . In the 2015 Secret Wars plot line , Star - Lord ( along with Strange ) is part of a handful of survivors when the earth battles Children of Tomorrow .
They also meet up in the newInfinity Warstoryline of 2018 , where Strange summons Star - Lord and other to Central Park , in hopes of fight down Thanos . It seems that Star - Lord only sees unknown when the integral universe is prepared to collapse , which certainly does n’t make Quill fond of the wizard ’s company .
Love - Hulk
Doctor Strange is the first person Bruce die hard into when he finally return to worldly concern postAvengers Age of UltronandThor Ragnarok . He fall through the roof of the Sanctum Sanctorum and , as luck would have it , Strange and Wong are there and take both Bruce and his warning earnestly . In the comic book population Banner and Strange have been teaming up for many twelvemonth . The pair were even two of the founding members ofThe Defenders . In the comedian , the Hulk also work well with Strange because he is one of a few creatures that can " see magic " so the Hulk was capable to see Doctor Strange even when unknown was in his Astral Form .
Don’t - Thor
While Doctor Strange and Thor do n’t pass much clip together at all in theAvengersfilms , they have a long history of pairing up in the Marvel comic strip . Loki entered Strange ’s reality in 1964 and Asgardians have been plaguing him ever since .
In their first meeting , Loki really fob Strange into believe that Thor is malevolent . That ’s a rough source and definitely not a well-disposed first - sentence encounter for the God Of Thunder . Strange ’s family relationship withDr . Blake(Thor ’s comic Holy Writ land alter - ego ) was better , as they could connect as doctors .
Love - Clea
Clea , another sorcerer , and eventually a love interest of Doctor Strange , is rumour to be seem in the second Doctor Strange film . She has been a bearing in the Doctor Strange comic stories since 1964 . She demo up as a adherent of Strange ’s and their science work well together .
tot to that the fact that they obviously enjoy each other ’s company ( they had a ten - year human relationship in the comic strip ) that relieve oneself for a pretty successful squad and an pleasurable working environment .
Don’t - Daimon Hellstrom
Daimon Hellstrom has yet to bring together the MCU , but is slated to get his own television series . This , in part , would be due to his tenacious account in Marvel Comics . His kinship with Doctor Strange set about when he start working with TheDefenders . alas Strange and Hellstrom ’s kinship often sees them on opposite side of a dispute .
Hellstrom is a routine of a plotter which can make him not rottenly trusty and often working for the wrong side . It make it hard to build a good kinship with another squad member .
Love - Ancient One
The Ancient One , both in the MCU as well as within Marvel ’s comic Scripture macrocosm , discovered Doctor Strange , recognizing the power and goodness inside the self - focus on and self-important surgeon . The Ancient One was Strange ’s instructor , and it finish up being a very positive student / instructor human relationship .
Out on his own Strange sometimes buzz off in over his head and , more often than not , the Ancient One has a history of showing up in the notch of clock time to help her pupil out of a unsound situation .
Don’t - Valkyrie
Forget theValkyriewe all passion fromThor : Ragnarokand debate a character with a much one-time account . She became one of the first female members of The Defenders and a major actor in the 1970s . While she was always a Cuban sandwich , and work relatively well with the other squad member , she was much more dedicated to the team than Strange was .
She showed up much more often than Strange did . He would pass up team time to work on his own .
