Synopsis for "What Lurks Beneath the Mask?"

Reprint of the 2nd story from
Strange Tales #136
Dormammu captures Clea and takes her prisoner for her involvement in the release of the Mindless Ones during one of Dormammu's attempts at destroying Doctor Strange. While in the Earth dimension, Doctor Strange continues to seek out information about Eternity, while trying to hide from Mordo and his minions. However, with each mystic he visits Strange finds dead ends. Visiting the Aged Genghis, Doctor Strange is given a scroll that is supposed to bring him to Eternity.

However, it is the wrong one, and Strange finds himself in a world filled with masks and a being bound to a plaque. Unmasking him, it turns out to be a demon that tricks others into unmasking it so that it can in turn steal their bodies and imprison their spirits. Although Doctor Strange falls for this trap, he uses his mental control over his cloak of levitation to make his enemy to unmask and free him. Battling the demon, Doctor Strange easily overpowers him and then sets all his victims free before returning to his own dimension.

With all other avenues exhausted, Doctor Strange decides that the only way to learn of Eternity is to probe further into the Ancient One's mind, even at risk of his life.
