Defex

From 2004 to 2005, Devil's Due Publishing released Defex, a six-issue miniseries that reimagined the classic superhero team concept through the lens of a gritty, real-world military operation. Written by legendary Marvel veteran Marv Wolfman, with art by Stefano Caselli and Giancarlo Caracuzzo, the series follows a covert government program that recruits and trains super-powered individuals as operatives for top-secret missions. Defex stands out for its grounded, tactical approach to superhuman abilities, blending espionage thrills with the character-driven drama Wolfman was known for.
