I think it might be. A masterpiece that has stood the test of time. I still read it once a year. Who remembers this one?
 
The Mignola GN? Amazing work, great story, one of the best Strange comics but also one of the best Doom stories and the FF are not in it really. A great way to show Doom embracing science as a way to master magic to, with his armor analyzing the postures and methods of other sorcerers. I would love to see an animated adaptation of it someday.
 
I wouldn't say it's the very best but it's certainly up there in the top ten or even the five.

In case I missed one, can you list the five you liked best.

Many liked God loves, man Kills, but I think Triumph and Torment is even better. And would make for an A+ movie.
 
I read it recently, and yes, it's stunning. The book those left appalled by Doctor Doom's recent cinematic appearance should huddle up in a ball with, as it's arguably the character's definitive story. But also a great Doctor Strange tale, too.

Honestly I'd have to pour through the lot of them but Infinity Gauntlet is up there along with the Earth X series.
 
My favorite will always be Marvels first GN, The Death of Captain Marvel.
