Hello everyone. I'm new to these boards but have been checking them out for some time. Hope you folks can help me!
Like Ian Levine and his obsessive quest to collect every DC, I'm on my way to collecting every appearance of Marvel's sorceror supreme, Doctor Strange. I already have nice copies of the Strange Tales run, as well as complete sets of all of Doc's solo series, all the Defenders, as well as all the cameos, crossovers and reprints listed in the Web Comic Books Database. I've checked on various Doc sites like Neilalien and The Sanctum Sanctorum for lists of collectibles and rarities, and have amassed quite a few in the last couple of years.
You can see a complete listing of my collection here: http://www.howardhallis.com/drstrange
My question is this: Anyone notice anything I'm missing? Any rare one shots, promotional items, or magazine appearances you don't see on my list? Although I try to collect every Doc comic reprint, I draw the line at expensive trades that only feature one Doc story, like the Marvel Masterworks of Spider-Man and Journey Into Mystery. Still, I'm trying to get every trade that has Doc as a major player or features him on the cover. I also know that all the foreign reprints will be nearly impossible to collect complete runs of, but any suggestions how to do this would be appreciated as well!
Thanks for your time and look forward to posting more in the future!

Welcome to the boards. I've never been a big Doc Strange fan, but that's one impressive collection.

Yeah, I have all the Marvel Treasury Editions. Besides #6 (the awesome Dr.Strange one I had as a kid which kind of inspired my insanity) and #16 (The Defenders), Doc also appeared in 3 more: #8: Giant Superhero Holiday Grab Bag, #12: Howard The Duck, and #22: The Sensational Spider-Man.
Anyone know if Dr. Strange appeared in "The Punisher Kills The Marvel Universe"? I don't want to shell out all that money for it if he isn't in it at all!

He could be in Fantastic Four KSA #3. He's not on the cover, but there were a bunch of Marvel characters in that issue. I can check when I get home if no one else does in the meantime.
Edit: Never mind, I see it on your list.

I have the All Access, and I really appreciate the heads up on the Death's Head II and Clandestine. 2 questions for you Lantern... The only Clandestine series I know of is from 1994. Was there an earlier one in 1985? Mile High doesn't have a listing. Also, any idea if the Death's Head II #4 is from the first or second series?
