Kaecilius then vows to make his "faithless" master Mordo "squeal with all the agonies of the Purple Dimension" and then vows to kill the younger Strange with his own power.

If you're not a hardcore Marvel Comics reader and you're thinking to yourself that the name Kaecilius rings familiar, it's because Kaecilius was loosely adapted (and as a result elevated) as the main villain in 2016's Doctor Strange film, portrayed by Mads Mikkelsen.Ĭreated in 1965's Strange Tales #130 by none other than Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, despite his pedigree, Kaecilius has been something of a minor Doctor Strange villain, more nuisance than a genuine threat.
