Defenders #69Issue(s): Defenders #69 Review/plot: Of course it doesn't, and Strange has to intervene directly. But the crisis is averted. ![]() Look at poor Bruce Banner. How often does he wind up having to ask stuff like that? ![]() As the first plot Jim Shooter is involved in since the Korvac saga, it seems a bit soon to have a super-team fighting another super-powerful guy wearing gym clothes. Still, this fill-in is much better than the surrounding issues. Quality Rating: C Chronological Placement Considerations: We know from Hulk #243 that the Hulk appearance here occurs after that issue and before Daredevil #163. Dr. Strange appears here after declining to help the Avengers in Avengers annual #8. Omegatron never fully appears, but we see its power meter increasing as the guy keeps using his powers, so i've listed it as a "character" appearing. References:
Crossover: N/A Continuity Insert? N My Reprint: N/A Inbound References (3): showCharacters Appearing: Dr. Strange, Hellcat, Hulk, Nighthawk, Omegatron, Valkyrie, Yandroth CommentsWow. My first issue of Defenders, a team and comic I had never heard of, when I bought it in a 25 cent box in 1986-1987 at a great comic shop called 'Comics & Robots' in Wilmington, DE. My Grandfather took me there after school and this cover really intrigued me. Who were these people, the Hulk was a member? It's only now, at nearly 4am, that I rediscover this exact issue- which, incidentally, came out in March 1979- the month and year I was born- which I *also* just discovered. Good stuff.
