The Defenders

In this 1977 Yaffa/Page series, Marvel's non-team of heroes—Doctor Strange, the Hulk, Namor, and the Silver Surfer—reunite for a six-issue run written by Steve Englehart, with artwork primarily by Sal Buscema and John Romita. The series focuses on the powerful, often reluctant alliance's struggles against cosmic and mystical threats, capturing the unique dynamic that made the Defenders a fan-favorite oddball team.
