Up for grabs is a fantastic 4-issue lot of The Secret Defenders (1993) from Marvel Comics, featuring issues #2, #4, #5, and #6! This fan-favorite series is famous for its unique "non-team" concept, where Doctor Strange uses magical tarot cards to select a custom roster of gritty 90s heroes for each individual mystical or cosmic mission.
This specific run boasts a stellar lineup of iconic guest stars, making it a powerhouse addition for character completionists:
Issue #2: Wolverine, Spider-Woman (Julia Carpenter), Darkhawk, and Nomad team up to battle the fear-casting Dreadlox!
Issue #4: The Punisher, Sleepwalker, and Namorita unite to track the gruesome road-warrior villain, Roadkill!
Issue #5: The Punisher and Namorita continue their high-octane pursuits against Roadkill on "Route 666"!
Issue #6: An all-star team-up featuring Spider-Man, Captain America, and the Scarlet Witch helping Doctor Strange stop the classic wizard Xandu!
