Doctor Strange: 31 Easter Eggs & References You Must See
28. Strange In Hospital
As in the comics, Strange is banged up horribly by his car crash and is forced to turn to other skilled surgeons to save his life and his bodily functions. Sadly, only he himself is skilled enough to preserve full hand function after severe nerve damage, so he loses his dexterity fatally.
The scene is clearly shot in homage to this cover shot comes from Uncanny X-Men's Brandon Peterson's run on Doctor Strange, which shows the car crash origin that ruins his hands.
His ruined hands come directly from the comics too...
