Strange Academy is a comic series published by Marvel Comics written by Skottie Young and drawn by Humberto Ramos. It features a group of young people from around the world with magical abilities that have been brought together to study the Mystic Arts in New Orleans under Doctor Strange, Doctor Voodoo, The Ancient One, Scarlet Witch, Magik, Hellstorm, Agatha Harkness, Shaman and other mages. [1] Strange Academy students include , , Shaylee Moonpeddle, Iric and Alvi, Guslaug, Zoe Laveau, Calvin Morse, Dessy, Toth, and Germán.[2]
Strange Academy began after Marvel writer and illustrator Skottie Young pitched the idea to fellow Marvel artist Humberto Ramos, who was intrigued by it. Young wanted to tell a "classic coming of age [story]... seen in so many other properties". Having just visited New Orleans, Young found the city the ideal setting for the folklore and magic of the series.[3]
