Set Description:
As team books go, it didn't get better than this run in the early years of the title. I got hooked when they took on the Avengers in the now famous Avenger/ Defenders cross over books. The idea of a super team comprised of unwanted cast- offs and loners learning to work together and get along, while at the same time confronting and defeating their superfoes and saving the world, created a superhero 'soap opera' of sorts that kept me in anticipation each month. Unfortunately, it didn't play as well for as long as that other group of social outcasts- the X-Men.
