  • Awesome Moments:
    • Dormammu possesses Everett Stone, a willing human host, to meet with Doctor Strange on "Parley Day", a magically-enforced truce. Since they cannot fight, they merely talk. The issue turns into a Clip Show of all the times Doctor Strange has fought and defeated Dormammu. Then comes the twist: he hasn't been telling these stories to Dormammu. He's been telling them to Everett Stone. He then offers Everett a mysterium coin, which will break his bond with Dormammu. He accepts. He surgically removed a man's religion.
    • A jiangshi gang goes from tough and belligerent to polite and peaceful all because they realize they're talking to the Wong.
    • Stephen warns Tiboro against speaking to his wife impolitely. He says that he told off Victor von Doom for doing the same thing. And while he fears Doom, he does not fear Tiboro.
    • Stephen snaps when General Strange crashes Umar and Tiboro's wedding and Tiboro accuses him of being involved.
      Strange: Have you ever considered — Have you ever entertained the notion that after all the times I have defeated you — humbled you — driven you broken into the earth that I could have simply killed you and saved myself the trouble of dealing with you ever again?! That every breath you have taken since the moment of our first meeting is a gift that I HAVE ALLOWED YOU?!
    • Empowered by the power of the Dog God, Bats manages to bite the ghost of Victor Strange and tear him from Stephen's vampire body.
  • Funny Moments:
    • Dormammu shows up to officiate the wedding between his sister Umar and Tiboro. And he manages to make their wedding vows sound like a curse.
      Dormammu: Sister, do you take this coward, this snake, this creature utterly unworthy of being linked to the glory of our cosmic lineage? [...] Tiboro, so you take this crippled thing, this fleshly embarrassment to the name Faltine, this so-called "Warlord?"
      Tiboro: Dormammu, you overstep...
      Dormammu: "I do" will suffice, Tiboro.
      Tiboro: I do.
      Dormammu: Then on your own heads be it! Dormammu proclaims these two...wed! Let any who challenge my proclamation identify themselves so that I may annihilate them!
    • Clea being a Clingy Jealous Girl when she realizes that Black Cat has entered Stephen's home multiple times. And when she realizes Black Cat also has white hair, she accuses Stephen of having a type. But she mellows out when Black Cat yells at Stephen to finish the mission before happy hour at a bar and realizes Stephen would never be attracted to her.
  • Heartwarming Moments:
    • After Victor Von Doom manipulates him into losing the title of Sorcerer Supreme, Stephen considers enlisting General Strange to help him fight back. But he sees how happy and peaceful the General has become in Cobolorum and doesn't even ask.
    • After losing the title of Sorcerer Supreme and being betrayed by his brother, Blade, and the Vishanti, Clea promises Stephen that they will face this problem together as a couple. And this is after Mordo leaves implying that Clea will lose interest in Stephen now that he's lost his position and only stay with him out of pity.
