Dr. Strange is the sorcerer supreme in the MCU but will he be this powerful in the movie?

Hard to say. Strange could get pretty fucking powerful in his comics.

He should fit in fine in the movies. Dr. Strange villains are similar to Loki, magical tricksters.

Goddamn

When Doctor Strange inevitably receives heaps of praise and makes $500 million at the box office, will DC respond with a Doctor Fate movie?

Wow... Just wow... Outstanding... Practical effects really are better..

>trickster

That's underselling it. He's got a few human sorcerers he fights with, but other Dr. Strange villains conquer entire dimensions on a regular basis. If he's really powerful, they are ludicrously powerful.

>Sorcerer Supreme

position, already filled M80

No, because this is an origin story. And people often forget that Strange didn't start out as the Sorcerer Supreme in the comics either. His mentor, the Ancient One (who held the title of Sorcerer Supreme before him), was still very much alive early in Strange's comics.

Shuma-Gorath plz I'd like to see him tentacle rape some bitches

Who will be first, Dormammu or Shuma?

Almost certainly Dormammu. He's the nemesis, after all. I hope they do Shuma in a sequel, though.

yeah but honestly those guys aren't really much stronger than Loki.

Even though these guys can summon fire and make unbreakable magical contracts, they'll still crumple like wet tissue paper if the Hulk punches them and they'll still go flying from Thor's hammer.

Obviously Dr. Strange would be required to actually beat any of his own villains, though. As it should be. I can see it working in a movie where the avengers hold them off while Strange sets up some big spell or magical trap

>His mentor, the Ancient One (who held the title of Sorcerer Supreme before him), was still very much alive early in Strange's comics.

Yeah, up until Shuma-Gorath forced strange to murder the old guy. Kinda hope some version of that makes it into the movies.

>Even though these guys can summon fire and make unbreakable magical contracts, they'll still crumple like wet tissue paper if the Hulk punches them and they'll still go flying from Thor's hammer.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Peh, he is nothing compared to DOOM.

Strange spanked Doom's ass in the only magical duel they ever had.

Fuck that shit, give me a Sandman Mystery theater netflix show.

...

dormmamu could turn the hulk into a mote of dust if he thought about it m8

>that dialogue
What edge lord wrote this shit? Literally "my character can beat your character"

That was clearly a doombot.

Yes, dorammu has beaten Hulk before, and Hulk has beaten Dormammu before.

If it's in Dormammus dimension, he's pretty much unbeatable. But if the fight takes place on Earth, then hulk can beat him

If Dr. Strange does well then they may revisit Justice League: Dark or whatever it was called. Basically a team of supernatural characters.

>Hulk shatters Onslaught's armor
>takes everything Red Hulk has and walks away from unfazed
>gets one shot by a loser like Dormammu
>meanwhile Red Hulk knocks out the Watcher, kills Silver Surfer and rapes Dormammu

Bravo Marvel. This is why people don't read your shit comics anymore.

>If it's in Dormammus dimension, he's pretty much unbeatable. But if the fight takes place on Earth, then hulk can beat him

Dormammu's just as powerful in or outside of his dimension. The problem for him has usually been that he can't enter the Earth dimension due to wards or oaths. I don't think Hulk's ever beaten him without massive caveats: the pic you posted is from after Umar stole all of Dormammu's power.

Only if he has home field advantage.

You guys are way overestimating Dormammu just because he's pretty much omnipotent in his own domain so you can get single comic book pages of him doing crazy stuff. Outside of his home field he's a lot weaker

>loser like Dormammu
>immortal god-king of multiple dimensions
>loser

Dormammu's gotten some bad treatment in recent years, but he's an extremely powerful character.

the hulk has more power fluctuations than any other comic book character ever

One day he's getting beaten by Spiderman or Deadpool and the next day he's singlehandedly defeating every superhero in the world at the same time

I wonder if they will make Shuma the next big villain after Thanos.

he's supposed to OP as fuck outside the dark dimension also, writers just make him job

also fuck the hulk, what a garbage character

>Outside of his home field he's a lot weaker

You've been reading too much Bendis. Dormammu is stronger in the Dark Dimensions, but he is not much weaker outside of them. Dude channels power to billions of sorcerers across the multiverse when they call on him for magical spells. Why would he be cut off from his own power, regardless of what dimension he's in? No, his "weakness" is generally that he can't enter the Earth dimension so he has to use avatars, sendings, and puppets.

I don't think a tentacle eyeball thing would look very good in a movie, they would need to really nail the CGI for it to work

Probably not. Shuma's too remote and impersonal.

Shuma in a movie would basically look like the giant tentacle monsters from the end of Hellboy mixed with Sauron from LotR.

>Shuma-Gorath is an ancient force of chaos, the immortal, nigh-invincible and godlike ruler of nearly a hundred alternate universes, capable of energy projection, shapeshifting, teleportation, levitation, altering reality, and sympathetic magic among many other feats. He is described as being vastly more powerful than other mighty demonic enemies such as Satannish and Mephisto, and is capable of automatically destroying multiple galaxies through aura-pressure alone.[12]

Jesus Christ this is some Dragonball tier shit

cosmic marvel is best marvel tbqhwy

it just get so ridiculous

I fucken loove shadow the edgehog

So this guy is like the Cthulhu of Marvel?

More of an H.P. Lovecraft type monster, but Shuma Gorath was originally from Conan the Barbarian

>One day he's getting beaten by Spiderman or Deadpool
>thingsthatonly happened in your head.WEBM

Oh man, I'd love Shuma to be in these, that wacky motherfucker. Too bad the vibe of these movies seems to be kind of contrary.

>no one recogonizes the movie that the gif is from

Shuma Gorath? Yeah, basically. More Yog Sothoth or Azatoth if you want to get technical. The Dweller in Darkness is more along the lines of Cthulhu.

BUT CAN HE BEAT GOKU?

He successfully stole Hulks blood and escaped once, I call that a victory.

Spiderman and Hulk have fought countless times, usually hulk wins easily but sometimes spiderman is about to put him out of commission for a while and finish what he's doing

Shuma's not really wacky outside of MvC. He's more like something out of Lovecraft in the comics.

His power level will be a small fraction of what it is in the comics. Literally every hero and villain in the MCU has been downsized in terms of abilities and powers. And even when they are presented as fuckhuge powerful (Vision), it's squandered because the writers wrote themselves into a corner. You could argue that since this will be an origin story movie he'll just be understanding his powers, however, Hulk, Thor and several others haven't gotten stronger over the course of several years(nice to see Tony Stark progress in his suits and technology and AntMan being Giant in CW) the later movies, given that the MCU timeline somewhat follows its in world release date.
He's gonna be like Vision and Scarlet Witch: cool powers that will fit with the fights or plot and won't be too OP

When I was a kid i thought he was on Capcom's side.

>He successfully stole Hulks blood
Stop moving the goalposts, faghat. That's a far cry from beating him.

What price do they pay when they make a pact?

how about this one then

Yeah you caught me, I mainly know him from MvC.

From what Kevin Feige has said, Strange in the movies will have all his usual powers... it's just a question of degrees. Like, sure, Strange will still conjure up energy blasts, but how much force will they have? Are we talking "destroy a building" or "blow up a planet?" I'm guessing somewhere in between.

Truth be told, though, even if Strange's powers aren't at the high end of the scale in the movies, the sheer number of powers he has (including, according to Feige: energy blasts, shields, time manipulation, teleportation, flight, moving between dimensions, astral projection, calling on extra-dimensional entities for spells) will still make him one of the most powerful characters in the MCU through sheer versatility.

What do you mean?

>How to ruin characters with shitty writing

Lads, do you think Mads is gonna get possesed by Dormammu in the movie

i hope so

Like Faust, do they pay a price for making a pact with a demon to use their power?

That reads like the super high level astral HORRORS fan guide people made for D&D. It was full of shit like Nuclear and Neutron Golems and living solar flares made out of gods tears and shit, things that no matter how powerful your character was, whether through cheating or legit years of play, they would have a very bad time.

JUST

Fuck, this really looks good, and I've never been that much into capeshit, but Doctor Strange always looked pretty damn cool.

Best villain when?

Depends I guess

Making a contract with Dormammu for instance will allow him to use you as a vessel to enter the dimension since he can't normally do so

How does his dick look?

...

That only pissed him off.

You mean, the price for casting spells in Marvel? Yeah, sort of. There's basically two ways to use magic in Marvel: drawing on magical energy in your surroundings or calling on extra-dimensional beings for power. If you're drawing on local power, eventually that power gets used up and you have to find another source, along with other various downsides. Spells you cast by calling on other entities can be used pretty much whenever, and the only downside is what the entity asks in return.

The price varies from entity to entity. Some of them want to be worshipped. Some of them want you to act as their minion, furthering their own plots. Some of them will go all godfather on you, saying you owe them a favor to be called in whenever they feel like it. Dr. Strange's patron entities, the Vishanti, generally loan power to sorcerers they feel are doing good deeds, promoting stability and order. If they feel you drift too far away from these goals they cut you off from their power and don't turn the spigot back on until you toe the line again.

I'm hoping he's the villain of Ant Man and the Wasp.

Cool, thanks.

Thanks you too
