In "Fangs of Fire and Blood!", the Defenders confront a rising threat as the Sons of the Serpent target the vulnerable, forcing Valkyrie to confront the realities of poverty and Nighthawk to question where he truly belongs. Steve Gerber's writing and Sal Buscema’s dynamic art bring this tense, character-driven story to life, with Gil Kane’s striking cover capturing the issue’s fiery intensity.
