Notes

• In Strange Tales #154, Veritas defeated Umar by showing her that her true face was an aged version of her humanoid face. In this retelling, Veritas actually showed Umar her true Faltinian face instead. This a minor retcon is due to the revelation of the true appearance of Faltinians that occurred in Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme #22.
