The Defenders #70

The Hulk dominates this April 1979 cover with fist raised over a downed Lunatik, while Dr. Strange urges restraint and Valkyrie, Hellcat, and a cloaked blonde teammate stand ready nearby — a wonderfully crowded scene that captures the Defenders' loose-knit, anything-can-happen energy. The dueling word balloons ("Stop, Hulk! Lunatik is finished!" / "Wrong, Dr. Strange!") hint at some serious disagreement about how finished Lunatik actually is. Cover art by Herb Trimpe and Joe Rubinstein, with interior story and art from Ed Hannigan and Trimpe — a solid creative team delivering the kind of wild, ensemble action that made this series so entertaining in the late '70s.
