In "The New Defender!", a shocking transformation sees Barbara remade into the armored Valkyrie, while the Black Knight is frozen in stone—leaving the team reeling as Omegatron's power dips to a critical 89 hundredths. With Sal Buscema's dynamic art and Steve Englehart's bold storytelling, this 1978 issue delivers a high-stakes twist that reshapes the Defenders' battle lines. The cover, a striking collaboration by John Buscema, Jim Starlin, and Frank Giacoia, captures the moment's intensity.
