Vanaf deel #125 werd de naam van Defenders veranderd naar New Defenders aangezien de “grote vier” (Dr. Strange, Silver Surfer, Hulk en Namor) gedwongen waren het team te verlaten, en de vier oprichters daarmee dus verdwenen.
As of issue #125, The Defenders was retitled to The New Defenders as the original four members (Doctor Strange, the Silver Surfer, the Hulk, and Namor) are forced to leave the team, in response to an alien prophecy that states that these four, operating as a group, would be responsible for destroying the world.WikiMatrix WikiMatrix
