Steve Ditko’s second-ever story of the master of the mystic arts
includes one panel that, based on
Stan Lee’s caption, involves time
travel. Even though it was just one panel, it got me wondering whether the phrase race
through time could possibly have a meaning. What would it mean for one time traveler to
arrive at the final destination before another? Isn't the whole set up kind of like
Doc Strange saying to
Baron Mordo, “I’ll bet I
can think of a number bigger than you can.”
— Michael Main
Unseen by human eyes, the two mighty spirit images race thru time and space .
