5) He Has Many Magical Artefacts
The magic used by Doctor Strange is quite different from the magic wands and charms of something like Harry Potter. The Sorcerer Supreme derives a lot of his abilities from powerful artefacts, a couple of which we have already seen Benedict Cumberbatch sporting in the promotional images.
For instance, his red cape isn’t just a fetching superhero garment but is actually the Cloak of Levitation which, as you can probably guess, gives Strange the ability to fly.
He also wears the Eye of Agamotto around his neck, which allows him to see through mystical allusions. Strange also possesses the Orb of Agamotto, which gives him visions of the future.
Interestingly, the Orb has previously been seen in the MCU. It was spotted in Odin’s vault of treasures, alongside the Infinity Gauntlet in Thor.
