The Defenders

Darkspeed · 11-16-2011, 10:06 AM

Just picked up a little preview pamphlet in my local comic store, and I gotta say I'm really excited for the new Defenders comic... A really nice eclectic cast (Loving Doc Strange's new threads) and the first villain they go against should make it really interesting.

Anyone else got any thoughts on this series?

i havent seen the preview yet, but if they bring nighthawk back into relevance in time for his MU release, all the power to 'em. i will be buying the first issue tho, cause itll be an interesting divide from Avengers.

No scans, sadly I don't own a working scanenr at present. But here's some colour images of what is in the preview book: Sneak Peek: Defenders #1 | Marvel Heroes | Comic News | News | Marvel.com

You might find the booklet at your local comic book store, it's a flip booklet that also features news on Avengers X-Sanction.

I'm upset, but only because the sword is the only thing left of the kick ass Asgardian weapons that Stark made in Fear Itself. ^^:

A though Betty banner would in any way know how to use a sword...and why use Red She Hulk anyway? Where was Jen during all that Fear Itself stupidity?

Well...considering She Hulks history ...its really not that surprising. Shes a tad easy to say the least

I actually like regular ol' She-Hulk too... She was one of my favorite Avengers before Disassembled happened, and I've enjoyed reading a few issues of her own series. I wouldn't have minded to see her in the new Defenders comic, but I've been enjoying the way Red She-Hulk has been developing and I feel she would be a fresh face on the team!

KingLouie731 · 11-16-2011, 04:05 PM

I was only making a joke Darkspeed, I did see the solicits for the new defenders book and it actually stood out to me among the other free items (postcards etc.) so I would be interested in reading the trades when they come down the pike.

Oh I figured as much dude... No hard feelings, I do love a good debate! :P

KingLouie731 · 11-16-2011, 04:28 PM

I don't read a lot of the newer stuff unless I borrow the trade from the Library unless something really catches my eye. I say that to let you know I can't really debate with you about the shes Hulk & Rulk cus I don't really know Rulk too well but the Defenders looks like it might be different enough to stand out and I hope the story works for them to be around awhile

warmachine6 · 11-16-2011, 04:38 PM

Namor ~ Aqua man

I really do.

I'm a huge mark for Red Hulk and Red She Hulk, but I still can't figure out where Ross hides the stache when he transforms.
