There's a new Sorcerer Supreme presiding over Earth-616 of the Eighth Cosmos, so to (belatedly) mark the turnover, here's a thread for Marvel's mystic arts and the mystics who ply them. Also welcome are those men, women and undefinable entities otherwise touched by the supernatural.

Dead thread.
Green is a bad color
>>152321496It’s only as dead as mystic marvel is.
Didn't we already do this with Brother Voodoo? Why they always gotta bring down Strange?
>>152322229I don't know what exactly counts under that but>Doctor Strange>Moonstar>Mortal Thor>Sorcerer Supreme>Spirits of Volence>Strange Tales>Wiccan: Witches' RoadGive or take. At a glance there might be a surprising amount of stuff that could arguably count under there right now.
>>152322240>Didn't we already do this with Brother Voodoo?>And Loki>And DoomThey're passing the Sorcerer Supreme mantle around as if it was a boxing or wrestling title instead of it being specifically Strange's thing.
>>152322413Wasn't Clea provisionally the SS while Stephen was dead? This is like the magical version of "Tony Stark loses his company".
>>152321529>AFTER THE BIG BANG>You will never experience a big bang with WandaWhy even live?

>>152322562She’s also technically “Sorcerer Supreme of the Dark Dimension,” but god knows what that even means at this point since she doesn’t live there anymore.
I wish they'd focus more on the lower, more mundane areas of magic. I don't give a shit about Strange Academy or the neverending cycle of Sorcerers Supreme, but I'd love to see more street magic. The hustlers trying to get by. Maybe that's more of a DC thing but DC magic has been shit since they turned Hellblazer into a superhero and made everyone part of the Justice League
>>152323648Ghost Rider has occasionally dipped into that. And I guess Ellis' old Hellstrom and Druid series kind of had the gritty and surreal vibe of some Hellblazer runs.I always felt like Cloak and Dagger could easily have been shifted in a more mystical direction, and might have benefited from it. Their whole entanglement with the Darkforce (relating to Chthon, the Darkhold, and vampires) and D'Spayre (IIRC he's a Fear Lord, a peer of Nightmare and others) makes it a short leap, narratively. And it's not like these characters have had anything better going on for the past thirty years.
>>152323648Write to Marvel to demand a new Sleepwalker series.
>>152323648That’d probably just get called a Hellblazer knockoff if they tried.
