Marvel Feature #1 Review by Librarian (February 15, 2010)

The creation of the Defenders. Don Heck is also a penciler in this issue. Other inkers: Frank Giacoia.

Comments: As the cover says, it’s the origin of the Defenders, that notable non-team. Dr. Strange and Namor met before in SUB-MARINER #22 at the end of which Strange was trapped in the realm of the Undying Ones; Strange returned in INCREDIBLE HULK #126 to renounce his magic powers. Silver Surfer has a cameo but will not join the group until DEFENDERS #2. Dr Strange battled Yandroth in STRANGE TALES #164-168. And the Bolt of Bedevilment sounds like a really cool spell.
