Legendary writer Steve Gerber transforms the Defenders! The Defenders, comicdom''s #1 non-team, are back and things are about to get weird in all the best ways. As we begin, the Defenders confront Nebulon and the other-dimensional Squadron Sinister. It''s an encounter that will bring Nighthawk into the fold and change the team forever. Then, Magneto and his Ultimate Mutant strike, the Wrecking Crew debut, Luke Cage and Daredevil join up and Valkyrie continues her search for answers to her fractured identity. After Steve Gerber takes the writing reins, the series is injected with a dose of knowing absurdity and cutting social commentary in the form of the bizarre Headmen and the bigoted Sons of the Serpent. Gerber crafts challenging stories that set the tone for the Defenders and define them even today.

Created by comic book legends Dennis O Neil and Neal Adams, John Stewart changed both DC s fictional universe and the comics industry itself. Introduced as a substitute for Hal Jordan, DC s primary Green Lantern, John Stewart was DC s first Black superhero, and over the years grew from a back-up player to a main character and arguably the most recognisable Green Lantern. Stewart starred in the Green Lantern series for a time and later his own series, Green Lantern: Mosaic, and was featured in other media adaptations including the beloved Justice League cartoon. Fifty years following John Stewart s debut, this collection highlights the character s greatest moments over the decades both space-faring and Earth-bound from his first appearance in the legendary O Neil/Adams Green Lantern run, to taking over from Hal Jordan as Earth s Green Lantern, and being rechristened as the first mortal Guardian of the Universe. This volume includes Green Lantern Vol. 2 #87, #182, #185, Green Lantern Vol. 3 #74, #156, Green Lantern Vol. 4 #49, Green Lantern: Mosaic #18, and Justice League of America #110.
