In this entry - from
Doctor Strange; Master of the Mystic Arts # 39,
Chris Claremont (story) and Gene Colan (art)
reveal that there is more to a deep and lasting love than just the wanton, carnal pleasures.

Clea's love for Dr. Strange has always been the major factor in her characterization.
More so than her study of sorcery, more still than her responsibilities to her home dimension...

It's always been about her love for Stephen Strange.

While, in many instances (as shown in the other entries of this series - with certainly more to come) that has manifested in her outright craving for Strange's "magic wand", it also has been shown in much deeper, more meaningful ways, such as this.

*click pic to "feel the love" *

In the midst of yet another world-threatening menace, Clea can feel Doctor Strange's burden, and her empathy longs to find a way to alleviate some of it - if even with something as simple as a kiss.

It's not "sex" in any typical or widely perceived manner, but it is at the heart of what sex is all about: the deep, touching of another's heart and spirit.

Many times such a simple act of a hug and/or a kiss can make one feel more "as one" with their partner than any naked sexual contact.
Even more than this, her feeling of his pain and her wishing to alleviate it in some way, is an even deeper example of "intimate" contact.
The brain is the biggest erogenous zone, y'know.

Certainly, she'd much prefer something a little more... physical, but she understands that there aren't always the times that such activity is possible. Some times, all that one can hope for is a little "presence" of that intimacy.

Strange, like many powerful and preoccupied men, sees her gesture of an offered hug and a kiss, at first, as a childish interruption - or as a "foolish womanly" notion.

He states, "And that will make all right with the world, eh, Clea?"

To which her reply of, "I don't know about the world, but it might make you feel better," seems to show that she does understand the nature of making the world seem right.

As the caption reads:

'The moment is rare, beautiful, supremely precious and too quickly over.
Both wish they could have more such moments.'

That is how you make "all right with the world"...
One person at a time.
With love.

Starting, of course, with the one that you love.

Don't worry - I know this feature has many fans (this series frequently gets more hits than just about any others that I post) and this "sensitive" side-track isn't some "new direction".
Rest assured, the next installments in the series will return to the kind of content that the internet has come to crave.
(As we all know there is a lack of sexual content online.)

There are still many more occurrences in the Dr. Strange canon to continue.
Because as every Doc and Clea fan knows...

CLEA LOVES SEX!
