Defenders: Beyond #1

A leftover spell from Doctor Strange calls forth a new group of Defenders in Defenders: Beyond #1. We begin with the reluctant Blue Marvel and add a confused America Chavez looking for answers about her past, a female Loki (obviously meant to remind readers about the Loki TV-show) who alone seems to relish the adventure, the mostly non-descript Taaia, and the Avenger Tigra. We don’t get into what the threat is large enough to call on the Defenders as the first issue is mainly about the reluctant characters (all except for Loki) being forced together into action by events well outside of their control.

Fables #153

While we get short appearances by Cinderella and our new Jack the Green, the main focus of Fables #153 is on the children of Bigby and Snow White who their father sends off separately to each have a fantastic adventure on their own. Snow isn’t overly enthused with her husband’s decision and it turns out she may have valid concerns.

Moon Knight #13

In the fallout from his war with Zodiac, Moon Knight turns his pent-up frustration and attention on the vampire known as the Tutor who is the head of the vampire pyramid scheme which turned Reese. There’s plenty of action as Moon Knight cuts a path through vampires on his way to the Tutor, however the framing of the issue comes from the vampire’s discussion with Taskmaster who the Tutor asks for advice and attempts, and fails, to hire to deal with his Moon Knight problem.

Daredevil #1

Matt Murdock is dead to the world as Daredevil (who no one remembers is Matt Murdock) and Elektra prepare to leave New York and take their fight to the Hand. Before leaving the city, however, Daredevil spends one final night fighting crime with Spider-Man and tying up various loose ends. There’s not as much Daredevil/Spidey interaction as I would have liked here (especially between two men who have made deals with devils to hide their secret identities), but the pairing still works.
