Doctor Stephen Strange appears first in Strange Tales issue #110 #111 and #14 and we finally receive his backstory in issue #15.
Dr Strange approaches the Ancient one so he can have the power to use his hands again so he can become a doctor. This is how we find out a little about his past, in that Stephen Strange was stuck up and selfish and didn't do much foe charity or care about much at all other than his well being.
However just like most super heroes, he was involved in a car accident that broke most of his bones. As a result of this, he can't practice medicine like he wanted to because of the state his hands are now in. The Ancient one refuses to help Dr Strange because of how his past has been portrayed. When Strange is leaving he comes across Baron Mordo who is conjuring Dormanmu (the most dangerous for who Strange ever faces). When Mordo realises Strange is spying on him, Mordo casts a spell on him so he can't speak about this to anyone. Then when Mordo and Strange go back to the Ancient one, Strange tries to tell him what Mordo is summoning, but simply can't. Then when Mordo leaves, the Ancient one releases the curses and tells Strange, that he has passed the test, the even in possible death, Strange still tried to tell the Ancient one what was happening.
Because of this, Stephen Strange then becomes a pupil of the Ancient one and starts to train with sorcerery and physical combat.
The Sorcerer Supreme
In issue #10 a demon that had been previously brandished from our dimension, is trying to force his way back into our dimension by passing through the mind of the Ancient one. To destroy the demon, Dr Strange must kill the Ancient one, therefore making Dr Strange the sorcerer supreme of the Marvel universe.
Powers
Doctor Strange gains his powers in multiple different ways, he's got them from beings such as the Ancient one, from books and through demons as well. However, he can still loose his powers and they can be taken away.
He has been described by Eternity as one of the most power characters. Even when his powers have been decreased he has still gone against many demons and gods and sorcerers.
Some of his powers include:
Teleportation
Reading Minds
Lift Objects
Telekinesis
Project energy blasts
Manipulate energy
Time travel
Look into both the future and the past
See energy in other dimensions
Pull people into dimensions
And there's many many more.
He is one of the most dangerous Heroes and should be feared by many as he is ranked as high as characters such as Galactus.
Doctor Strange will be portrayed by Benedict Cummberbatch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe movie in November 2016.
