    Posted by Lee Stone. From the first Marvel Handbook.



    Unfortunately, the arrival of the New Universe and X-Factor brought an end to the Defenders and they appear to have missed the second volume of the Handbook.

    But they did return for the '89 Update:

    RECOMMENDATIONS

    Avengers Defenders War -- arguably the first "event" at Marvel, this was an amazing battle of two of Marvel's biggest teams at that time.

    Defenders for a Day

    Defenders Indefensible - While there's disagreement amongst Defenders fans about this book, I personally love it. It's a fun look at the Defenders.

    Best Defense - an old school gathering of the old team, with a call back to one of the Defenders early foes. It was interesting to see how the four separate issues lead up to this meeting.

    Defenders fans are fortunate to start the year out with a mini-series featuring the Defenders, the old school Defenders, in what looks like the era of the Avengers / Defenders War! Released tomorrow!




    TAROT #1 (of 4)
    Written by ALAN DAVIS
    Art and Cover by PAUL RENAUD
    An all-new epic adventure teaming the classic Earth’s Mightiest Heroes with Marvel’s premiere Non-Team by Alan Davis and Paul Renaud!
    A strange and impossible lost memory from his days in World War II draws Namor the Sub-Mariner to his one-time compatriot Captain America—but the two heroes and their respective allies find themselves pulled into a labyrinth of pain, destruction and madness courtesy of the Infernal Ichor of Ish’lzog!

    Tarot #1 made me realize just how much I miss the Defenders, they are the best "Non-Team" in comics! I know we had the Best Defense mini series not too long ago but I wish we could have the OG Defenders on a comic together again. Not trying to spoil too much but here's some panels! There was alot that happened in this issue.

    Wow! That looks great! Davis is definitely capturing the old school Defenders and their cool mystical adventures -- even with his frustrated Hulk! This has the characters interacting / performing as a team, far more than Best Defense. Thanks for posting those!

    I wonder, with Best Defense and now Tarot, if it could portend something even larger coming this year? Or is that just hopeful thinking?
