Is it me or is Marvel lacking in supernatural titles at the moment?

You'd think Marvel would have one or two at the moment...

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun-Ash, Army of Darkness.

You asked for heros. You never said anything about sanity. Chameleon Boy, S:TAS

Marvel Knights gave Dr. Strange a shot a couple of years ago but it didn't go over too well. I'm all for the idea of more supernatural titles but I don't see too many people working regularly in comics that could do them well.

Straczynski has been itching to do a Dr. Strange project for some time now; even before his ASM run IIRC. Why it's never evolved into something I can buy and read........I don't know. But his upcoming Squadron Supreme MAXi-series tells me that if Marvel doesn't object to JMS tackling more of the obscure characters.......that Dr. Strange project must be an inevitability sooner or later...

As for a lack of supernatural titles..........the last big wave of them was the Midnight Sons line (Ghost Rider, Nightstalkers, Blaze, etc), all of which (except Ghost Rider) were axed during the mid-90's Marvel Implosion. The Strange Tales line from circa 1998 never got off the ground and died within a year (which stinks because most of those books were pretty decent). Very few projects since have worked either - most notably, the 3 (yes, 3) Blade series since the movies came out have all failed horribly.

I remember the Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme title. It started out great. Then came the Infinity crossovers. The book never had time to recover from a lame crossover story before then next one was up. I left the book as a result and was never moved to go back.

Wait, it SS an ongoing series or a limited series? I saw the 'i' but I can't tell if that's an error. Besides, if the Eternals can get an ongoing series I don't see why the SS can't. And it's long past time Alias stopped being the only ongoing MAX title.

I was wrong, it seems; it *is* ongoing. (Good!)
