I like the starting premise: Stephen Strange has had his hands fully healed so he can resume practice as a neurosurgeon. Early issues play with him trying to find a balance between his medical practice and his responsibilities as the Sorcerer Supreme. A supporting cast of characters is set up at the McCarthy Medical Institute where he works on an as-needed basis, but before they can be even partially developed Strange gets distracted by a supernatural arms dealer and the series was prematurely canceled.

Waid is a solid and reliable writer, and I'm sorry he didn't get a chance to fully explore this concept and that Strange instead had to go through the pointless detour that is The Death of Doctor Strange. ( )
