Face-to-Face with the Magic of Baron Mordo!
Story on Interior Page(s)
5   Episode #2. 1st appearance of Baron Mordo.
Return to the Nightmare World!
Story on Interior Page(s)
8   Episode #5. 2nd appearance of Nightmare.
Beyond the Purple Veil!
Story on Interior Page(s)
8   Episode #8.
The House of Shadows!
Story on Interior Page(s)
9   Episode #9. The phrase, "The house is alive" is reportedly one of the things Roger Corman said in order to convince his bosses as AIP to allow him to film Poe's THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER (1961). The origin of the house is strikingly similar to the one in THE OUTER LIMITS episode, "The Guests".
The Challenge of Loki!
Story on Interior Page(s)
9   Episode #12. Loki would seek revenge against Strange the very next month in JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #108 (September 1964).

The Hunter and the Hunted!
Story on Interior Page(s)
10   Episode #20; Part 2 of 17.
Face-to-Face at Last with Baron Mordo!
Story on Interior Page(s)
10   Episode #21; Part 3 of 17. Though not indicated in the dialogue, The Demon is the same villain last seen in STRANGE TALES #128 (January 1965).
A Nameless Land, a Timeless Time!
Story on Interior Page(s)
10   Episode #22; Part 4 of 17. The sisters in this story apparently served as the inspiration for Craig Russell's later Strange epic, a virtual remake of this story, which he did twice-- in DR. STRANGE ANNUAL #1 (December 1976), and DR. STRANGE: WHAT IS IT THAT DISTURBS YOU, STEVEN? (October 1997).

The Wondrous World of Dr. Strange!
Story on Interior Page(s)
20   First meeting of Spider-Man & Dr. Strange, Steve Ditko's two most famous co-creations. Xandu would return in MARVEL TEAM-UP #21 (May 1974). The scene of Spidey being sucked down thru the dimensional opening may have inspired a similar scene in the 1969 SPIDER-MAN cartoon, "Revolt In The Fifth Dimension".
