Dr. PTOR's ‎SanctumSanctorum 🤟 @sanctumblog.bsky.social · Nov 16
You know how #Marvel heroes go to #DoctorSTRANGE for mystical problems?

I'm a Doctor *OF* Strange.

I own and have read every appearance, & curated one of the WORLD'S LARGEST collections of Doc comics & artifacts.

Have a Q about anything Strange?
Knock on my #SanctumSanctorum door.

Photo of PTOR standing in front of the Sanctum Sanctorum window, promotional artwork for the 2016 Doctor Strange movie. 6 feet tall, 156 lbs or so. I had my hair cut and styled in a manner similar to Doctor Strange. I actually have natural grey streaks on the sides, but they are faint in the lighting provided. I have my facial hair of goatee, with graying chin, trimmed neatly. I am wearing a loose, black, short sleeve shirt with an interesting cross-hatch pattern of greys and white line segments that cover the area over my heart. A gray undershirt (and black pants & boots - unseen in this cropped image) tie the look together. Photo of PTOR standing in front of the comic-accurate Sanctum Sanctorum window, which I made, over 3 feet in diameter, mounted on the wall of my collectibles-room. The artwork of Steve Ditko, portraying the dimension of Eternity, is seen through the window beyond. I am holding a copy of EMPIRE Magazine that teased promotional photos for the 2016 Doctor Strange movie. Benedict Cumberbatch is shown on the cover, along with other MCU actors. I am 6 feet tall, 156 lbs or so. I had my hair cut and styled in a manner similar to Doctor Strange. I actually have natural grey streaks on the sides, but they are faint in the lighting provided. I am wearing a loose, black, short sleeve shirt. I am also wearing a custom-made silver ring that has the Sanctum Window design and other symbols on it. The SANCTUM SANCTORUM COMIX logo of my blog is superimposed over a photo of my custom-made, comic-accurate EYE of AGAMOTTO (made in 1987, sculpted with "Friendly Plastic" over a bisected MadBall, and covered in faux gold-leaf). It is permanently attached to a gold chain. The URL of my old blog is at the bottom: SanctumSanctorumComix.blogspot.com My SANCTUM SANCTORUM COMIX logo, created in the early 1990s, with the lettering in an interesting font, hovering over a comic-accurate Sanctum Window design and a glowing, grey-to-black background

(Yes)T-day's DOCTOR STRANGE garment:

I didn't wear a Dr. Strange shirt, but something "6 Dimensions of Dr.Strange" (like "6 degrees of Kevin Bacon" a mindset you can read about here-> sanctumsanctorumcomix.blogspot.com/2008/11/meth...).

Cover to MARVEL PREMIERE #28:
LEGION OF MONSTERS

Info in ALT
The cover to MARVEL PREMIERE #28 Art by: Nick Cardy and Irv Watanabe reproduced (in the hated "distressed" style) on a black tshirt. More about the cover in the alt text for the actual cover, BUT... WHY is this "6-Dimensions of Doctor Strange"? Well... as you can read all about it in my old blog post: https://sanctumsanctorumcomix.blogspot.com/2008/11/method-to-madness.html I collect anything that falls within the realm of Doctor Strange; 6-degrees of separation,so to speak. MAN-THING, GHOST RIDER, WEREWOLF BY NIGHT, heck... even the fact that they, like Doc got a shot at a solo title through the try-out auspices of MARVEL PREMIERE, all would lead to their being eligible. Still. I was collecting MAN-THING even BEFORE I discovered Doctor Strange, so while he fits the "6-Dimensions" parameters, he's "grandfathered" in. MARVEL PREMIERE #28 Art by: Nick Cardy and Irv Watanabe featuring THE LEGION OF MONSTERS MAN-THING, GHOST RIDER, WEREWOLF BY NIGHT. and MORBIUS the Living Vampire! Sadly, this didn't lead to an ongoing title, but the "Legion" have been referenced and brought back together on numerous occasions, sometimes with a slightly different roster, or with a different "team" name (like the Howling Commandos).

Here's a link to ALL of them.

I'll also link to them separately in the next few sheets.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Barry Miles, a friend of the BEATLES, & owner of Indica Books, in London, stands before posters & pages from books. At the bottom/right is a page from STRANGE TALES #146, as the Dread Dormammu invades the space of all that is...ETERNITY.

BUT, is it a RE-CREATION?
It may be.

More info in alt text.
DOCTOR STRANGE would be located just below what is visible. Looking closely at the image, it seems like it MIGHT be a re-creation of the comic page. I say this only because there's a ringed planet, like SATURN, in Eternity's left leg, and it doesn't QUITE match what's on the printed page. The comic page Saturn is more basic, while this photo has a Saturn that seems to have better perspective, BUT also touches the edge of Eternity's leg, where the comic one doesn't. A page from STRANGE TALES #146 by Steve Ditko. Look at that Saturn planet in Eternity's left leg. It doesn't quite match the one in the photo of Barry Miles bookstore. STRANGE TALES #146 Steve Ditko's final issue. Which featured the "death" of DORMAMMU & ETERNITY Spoilers: they both survived.

Today's DOCTOR STRANGE garment:

After my Brooklyn trip was aborted yesterday, I was sure they were going to try to send me out today - on the worst travel day!

So, I wore THIS shirt, with the most "menacing" Doc I could find.

The cover to NEW AVENGERS #14
Artist: Simone Bianchi
A note to tshirt printers... try to use the setting where it takes black (you can sample the tone/shade/color you want to select, but black is for a reason...) and have it use the SHIRT as the black. That way, it's a good black, and not that weird off-black you see in his background. I know the shades are probably inconsistent, and that makes it harder but it's worth the effort to do it well. New Avengers #14 Jonathan Hickman and Simone Bianchi A righteously bitchin' cover!

Today's DOCTOR STRANGE garment:

T-shirt featuring cover to DOCTOR STRANGE: DAMNATION by Rod Reis.

Posting this early, because it's going to be an insane day.

I'll explain in alt text.
Cover to DOCTOR STRANGE: DAMNATION by Rod Reis. So... I'm wearing this today because I'm 90% sure I have to drive to Brooklyn again, but in a sketchy van to deliver huge, custom Coat Drive boxes, & 600+ certificates that I rushed to hot-stamp yesterday. Work Pot-Luck is also today. I'll probably miss it. (But I'm supplying 2 sweet potato pies, and 1 coconut custard pie) Also have other design work to work on, and a production mock-up to present. Might be hell. DOCTOR STRANGE: DAMNATION #1 art by Rod Reis Mephisto looms over Las Vegas skyline. Doctor Strange is joined by BLADE, MOON KNIGHT, GHOST RIDER, & IRON FIST The city of sin gets its biggest sinner yet. When Doctor Strange raises Las Vegas up from its destruction during SECRET EMPIRE, he inadvertently opens a big door for the embodiment of evil, MEPHISTO! The devilish villain takes the city for himself and sets his sights on the rest of the world. It's going to take heroes from all over the Marvel Universe to defeat him, but there's nothing simple about fighting the lord of Hell.
