Defenders EPIC COLLECTION Day of the DEFENDERS:

The day of the Defenders has come! Roy Thomas joined his Titans Three of the Incredible Hulk, the Sub-Mariner and the Silver Surfer together with Doctor Strange to create comics’ greatest “non-team,” the Defenders! And unlike other super hero teams, they do not rely on bylaws and butlers. They join together in moments of utmost crisis to face incomprehensible enemies. When they encounter heroes of a more conventional stripe, it’s war—the watershed hero vs. hero Avengers/Defenders War, no less! The original trio of Defenders are joined by Hawkeye and Valkyrie and will face Dormammu, the Enchantress, the sorcerer Cyrus Black, the mischievous Loki and the horror of the Nameless One in this historic Epic Collection.
