We don't even know how many stars there are in the cosmos. We now use our best estimate of the number of stars in our own galaxy, the Milky Way. Then we increase that figure by our best estimation for the number of galaxies in the cosmos.

Stephen Strange has always been more about intelligence than brute strength. Strange wins by out-thinking his opponents rather than out-zapping them, which is part of what made the Lee/Ditko run remarkable. He can pack a punch when necessary, both physically and magically.

Defenders #9 demonstrated that Strange is more than just skilled. He can compete with Mantis, who is among the finest Marvel martial artists.

The country's native bird, the hooded pitohui, may be found throughout Papua New Guinea. The hooded pitohui bird, on the other hand, is one of the world's few deadly birds. As a result, hunters are concerned about preserving the birds since they destroy numerous parasites and are beneficial to the ecology. Hunters like these birds' distinct qualities as well.

Perhaps he is the king (or queen) of diplomatic blunders. When Wonder Woman was illegally detained by the Department of Metahuman Affairs, Hippolyta devised a plan to invade Washington, D.C. and murder everyone in sight. Sure, it was a Circe manipulation plot, but that was a little far-fetched! In fact, the series was panned for its violent and gruesome nature – after all, it's not every day that DC fans read about Amazons murdering innocent children in Washington.
