Defenders #42 (1976)

Oh man….the Defenders are back on WCE, baby! This is a wacky arc (as most Defenders books tend to feature) where Doctor Strange gets transfixed by a mystical ruby like he’s Kevin Garnett in UNCUT GEMS. He also gets super ageist towards his friend’s courier and skips out on the Defenders while they fend off Cobalt Man.

We also got Egghead stealing an ENTIRE NASA space station, Nighthawk spontaneously combusting like he’s Brad Dourif or something and Hulk dressing up as an incognito Ninja Turtle.

All this plus we chat about the 2025 WWE Royal Rumble, picture puzzles and the dog from MARRIED WITH CHILDREN.
