Defenders #43 (1977)

The fun times keep rolling along for Marvel’s favorite non-team as the Cobalt Man’s about to explode and all the Hulk wants to do is punch the radioactive villain in the face. Thankfully, Knighthawk (who is still shirtless) has a better solution. 

We also have Egghead unleashing his lethal egg-based offense with surprisingly efficient results, Luke Cage yeeting an agitated George Lucas, Rhino busting out a pre-Nicholson THE SHINING bit and the debut of Dr. Strange as the slightly problematic (but admittedly well-dressed) Red Rajah!

All this plus we chat about Hellstorm from the 90s and the new, underwhelming THUNDERBOLTS trailer.
