SHIELD summons Dr. Henry McCoy, the Beast, to the scene of a
bizarre incident at a yoga studio in Greenwich Village. They arrive to discover
Doctor Strange is already there. They enter to discover the students in some
sort of levitating trance, which Strange identifies as magic but Beast claims is
alien. They find a yoga spell book written in Shi’ar directing them to the Dark
Dimension. They head to that dimension separately and encounter Doctor McCoy,
Sorcerer Supreme, and Professor S of the Strange Men who are seeking Dormammu’s
Crown to stop the yoga singularity threatening all universes—except that they
have to destroy Earth-616 to do so. Strange and Beast seize the crown and
teleport back to their own world separately. Comparing notes they conclude that
the culprit behind it all must be the Impossible Man. They confront Impy in his
own dimension and demand that he close the portal and free the humans—or they
will sic on him the Stranges and McCoys of all the parallel worlds. It is done
and they journey back home, still arguing about magic versus alien technology.
