Volume 4 -1st printing. "August 1957 to July 1958!" Collects Strange Suspense Stories (1952-1965 Fawcett/Charlton) #33-37.

Charlton Comics' Strange Suspense Stories boasted a host of talents: Bill Molno, Sal Trapani, Don Perlin, Bill Fraccio, Maurice Whitman, Charles Nicholas, Richard Doxsee and Gene Colan among many. The real jewel was Steve Ditko whose moody, individualistic touch came to dominate Charlton's supernatural titles and, of course, led to deserved fame over at Marvel and with a kid called Parker. But before that, Charlton's shining light was nowhere near as bright as in the run of Strange Suspense Stories, issues 33 through 37 (August 1957 to July 1958).

So don't miss your chance and check out our fourth five-comic volume!

As magic faced its last days, Mr. Misery helped Doctor Strange defeat the Empirikul. But that doesn't make Misery a hero. Not one bit.

The Sorcerer Supreme won't stand for that - but to bring the thunder down on Misery, he needs a little help from Thor! Then, Clea walks back into Doctor Strange's life just as he's picking up the pieces from the worst beating he's ever taken. Is she there to help - or will she make that battle feel like a walk in the park for Stephen? Plus: The dazzling debut of the Sorcerers Supreme!
