When the impossible is everywhere and the very fabric of reality is threatened by insanity, the world needs more than super heroes — they need Defenders! Enter Defenders #1, from the top-selling creative team of Matt Fraction (Fear Itself, Invincible Iron Man, Mighty Thor) and Terry Dodson (Uncanny X-Men), as Doctor Strange assembles a new team of heroes to face a new kind of threat that will leave readers shocked.

The original series first appeared in December 1971 so the re-booted Defenders will mark 40 years of justice at the hand of a rotating line-up between 1972 and 1986.
