Title: A truly deserving "art" book
Review: I’ve purchased all the Marvel Art Of books, but I had especially high hopes for Doctor Strange. The film was heavily marketed as a psychedelic visual feast in keeping with the character. So I expected amazing artwork – and was not disappointed.This is the best art book Marvel has done in some time. Some of the books, like Iron Man and Cap, have become repetitive. I love seeing the new armor appear in the movies, but you can only look at so many iterations in a book before they all run together. Strange is a shot in the arm because so much of the art is pure imagination. There is the usual coverage of costumes, and how well they adapted Strange’s, but this art book doesn’t rely as heavily on comparisons to the comics. There’s a lot of talk about capturing the “trippiness” of Ditko’s original work, but only a few direct comparisons. The section on the Dark Dimension, and how the director was inspired by a blacklight Doctor Strange poster from the 70’s was cool.The best parts of the book for me was how they not only showed alternative production designs, but went into detail on why they weren’t chosen. All of the books show a lot of design choices, but readers rarely get why the final design won out. For instance, there are some truly wild ideas included here for what the astral projection would look like. However, they decided to go with something simple because they didn’t want the audience to be distracted when characters are having conversations in astral form. There’s a similar section regarding Dormammu’s influence on the zealots (e.g. the eyes). This book really shows fans how the artwork underlies the production, but also the reverse - how the art is influenced by storytelling requirements and the medium of film.Overall, this is a fantastic installment to the Art Of line. It has the usual high production values (glossy pages, slipcase). The artwork is gorgeous, and the book adds another layer of enjoyment for the film. Highly recommended.

Title: A magnificent art book!
Review: Every Marvel movie has its own art book and so there is one for Doctor Strange too. This stunning art book is a little bit different from the others, it features the same psychedelic atmosphere as the movie, with a lot of majestic pictures and artworks.The book tells everything about the movie, i.e. cast, plot, locations, costumes, conceptual artwork, paintings, weapons, props, backstage information and so on.The edition quality is very good, with a colorful box. A product that will really make Marvel fans happy, a must have.

Title: Strange (but Wonderful) Art Book
Review: This book is overall striking. I’ve only read a few other Marvel Art Of books and this one is very unique in what they need to develop for the film to portray Strange and his magic Definitely worth a look at considering how they explored more abstract concepts in the art. Also the set design and images of Kathmandu as well as the Kamar-taj and the Sancto Sanctorum were phenomenal.

Title: My favourite concept book
Review: Loved it, It's everything I wanted and more! Detailed explanation of the process of making the movie, beautiful concept art, 10/10.It was surprisingly heavy but honestly that's not an issue! The only issue is i'm scared to touch the black pages because it shows fingerprints, making me think they printed the book and sent it right away because I can still smell the ink they used, but that's not a big deal either.

Title: Loved it, but only one small issue....
Review: I really like this book. Love the artwork (you can tell whether it was pre or post casting of the actor). It was a bit different than what I was expecting, but still good.I wish I could give it 4.5/5 stars. I only had one real issue with the book. It has this weird chemical smell that needs to be aired out. It didn't bother me but it bothered my mom who made me go and read it in another room.

Title: Marvel's outdone themselves.
Review: After being beyond impressed after seeing the "Doctor Strange" movie, I couldn't resist pre-ordering this. Encased within a slipcover, the hardcover book details many of the movie's aspects such as character designs, backgrounds, and also has storyboards for one of the topsy-turvy fight scenes. Even the sling rings, which I thought were all the same, turned out to have different designs! It's readily apparent a lot of thought and effort went into crafting Strange's universe. If you enjoyed all the eye candy in the movie, I heartily recommend this book. You can't go wrong.

Title: Great for fans
Review: Bought the E-book because I don't have $300 to spare. There's some complaints that it's poorly formatted as an art book, but I didn't have much issue with it. I love that you can actually zoom in unlike some other e-art books I've purchased. Great behinds the scenes trivia and art.

Review: The art and designs showcased is awesome. One of the best book of this kind. Sadly it's hard to find and expensive... But there's a digital version which is great and accessible.

Review: 5 Stars from me.The book is stunning. It's showing different designs for the Costumes in the movie, the eye of Agamotto, and so on. You can see different Scenes that have been used and it's all explained why the creators have Chosen the designs they've shown in the movie.It contains great artwork from different artists.Also there are comments from Visual Effects Supervisors, costume Designers, the Director, also from Benedict Cumberbatch and others who've worked on the movie.I can just recommend this book to everyone who enjoyed the movie.And last, it arrived the same day it was supposed to arrive. I am really happy with this one, wouldn't ever give it away.
