@Boobster:
I. I assume your referring to the WWH vs Dr Strange Issue I've heard so much about on threads. I can't speak to that because I haven't read much Dr Strange in the last 20 years. But "Classic" strange (the one I read in my childhood to early 30's) easily contained and held savage hulk many times in Defenders.
2. he is plot and deities, that's what the charcater is about. Prep makes no difference to one who can control time.
3. I made no reference to Zom or Dormammu in that post. I specifically said Strange has defeated those who have called on Cyttork's power before and he has, Baron Mordo and several others (including Dormammu). His battle with Dormammu so weakened him it almost destroyed the dark dimensions and Strange had to save them as I recall. That's the whole reason Dormammu left Earth alone out of duty to Strange IIRC.
4. The whole idea of invoking others was a concept developed to make the mystics usable in team books. When you look at peak feats of Strange, Fate, Circe, Spectre (with major reality warping etc) they are obviously too powerful to be part of a team fight. But since they have to attain the power in team battle there can be more distractions to prevent them forming the spells to access. In a solo since they usually fight other mystics that attain power the same way the ebb and flow of such battle allows thme to access while tehir enemy is building their spell. It's actually a plot device to allow them to interact more.
5. I've never visited a Dr Strange respect thread to believe. For that matter the only respect threads for mystical characters i have visited are for Dr fate and Alan Scot, because I created them and put all the feats in them. Since everyone constantly says Strange is more powerful( my personal opinion is equal)and Fate could and was (through magic) as physically powerful as Superman there is no reason why Strange can't also. Not to mention Circe also has been.
Of course he can heal he doesn't have to be killed for the win, without the shield he can be physically harmed all it takes is enough to KO him for a second to move on. Though I honestly just noticed it's only one mystic and power at a time like gauntlet not an actual team battle. that makes quite a difference.
@Killemall:
I have no idea where my old Strange and Defenders issues are without a long search so I don't at the moment have the issue number or scan. I know the Dormammu fight was somewhere in the mid 100's of the Strange tales title. I was between 8 to 11 from memory so 1967 to 1970. I could look but I'm not even sure if they're in the boxes i have at my current house (many of which are in the attic and even that would be a challenge) or those at my parents place.
Circe could and has matched the Spectre , a LT level being and LT could affect Juggy just like Eternity has. Of course I didn't read through the entire OP so my whole stance is out of context.
