De Vier Verdedigers Classics

Classics/Williams’ De Vier Verdedigers Classics ran for 35 issues from 1971 to 1974, collecting and repackaging the earliest adventures of Marvel’s non-team super-group. Featuring stories primarily written by Stan Lee and Roy Thomas, with art by Jack Kirby, John Buscema, and John Romita, the series introduced Dutch readers to the original Defenders lineup through classic tales from the late 1960s and early 1970s. It stands as a key archival release, preserving the offbeat, team-up spirit of Doctor Strange, the Hulk, Namor, and Silver Surfer for an international audience.
