Marvel Masterworks: The Defenders #8
In "Little Triggers!", the Defenders—joined by Wasp and Yellowjacket—rally mid-journey from Las Vegas to New York after intercepting a frantic distress call from a military base. Though they stop the immediate threat, their success is short-lived as they’re quickly captured, setting off a parallel mission as Dr. Strange, Namor, and the Hulk race to Tunnel-World to confront the Unnameable One. Written by Ed Hannigan and illustrated by Herb Trimpe with inks by Mike Esposito, this dynamic chapter features bold artwork and escalating tension, with colors by Ben Sean and letters by Clem Robins. The cover, by Rich Buckler and Joe Rubinstein, captures the chaos in striking detail.
