Seven years ago, Stephen Strange was a respected surgeon, but an accident took everything from him. Losing his surgical skills, Strange sought a cure. When modern science failed, he turned to mysticism, leading him to Tibet, where he discovered a new world full of magic, opportunities, and dangers. In the present day, under the tutelage of the Ancient One, Strange continues his training in the mystic arts, becoming a skilled sorcerer. However, his arrogance and impatience stand in the way of reaching his potential, as he struggles internally with the decision to return to his normal life as a surgeon. He will have to use his new abilities and prove himself capable when Kaecilius, a sorcerer and lover of black magic, a former student of the Ancient One, emerges, wanting to unleash Dormammu on Earth. The confrontation reveals a much larger and more dangerous world than Strange knew, his destiny, paths to new futures, secrets of the Ancient One, and a lurking evil. It's up to Strange to decide how to proceed and whether he will ultimately return to his life as a surgeon or follow the path of magic.
