The Undying Vishanti and Genghis have gathered the sorcerers together so that they can compete to determine the true sorcerer supreme of Earth.
Doctor Strange and Doctor Doom are among the assembly of powerful magicians who meet at the Temple of the Three, where Genghis introduces them all to the ancient spirits of Oshtur, Higgoth and Agamottu who make up the Undying Vishanti and supply the sorcerers with much of their magical energy. Marvel's 1989 graphic novel Doctor Strange & Doctor Doom: Triumph and Torment, by Roger Stern, Mike Mignola, Mark Badger and Jim Novak, begins when a mystic as old as time named Aged Genghis psychically summons all of Earth's greatest sorcerers. For one of his most notable and bizarre adventures, he teamed up with Doctor Doom to journey into the netherworld to free the soul of Doom's mother from the evil Mephisto. Stephen Strange's mystical career has taken him to every possible realm and teamed him up with some surprising companions. As the Death of Doctor Strangelooms ominously on the horizon, Earth's Sorcerer Supreme's incredible influence on the Marvel Universe is clearer than ever before.
