Where it came from
The Defenders #100, published in October 1981, marked a significant milestone for Marvel's non-team team. Written by J.M. DeMatteis with art by Don Perlin, the issue served as the grand conclusion to a long-running storyline involving the death of Nighthawk and the trial of the remaining members. It represents the creative peak of DeMatteis’s run, as he sought to deepen the psychological complexity of the characters rather than focusing solely on traditional superhero tropes.
The design of the cover and interior panels reflects the transitionary period of early 1980s bronze-age aesthetics. Don Perlin, who provided a long-standing visual identity for the series, aimed for a grounded approach to the supernatural and cosmic threats the group faced. Upon its release, the issue was well-received by fans for providing a definitive sense of closure and thematic weight that distinguished the title from the more conventional team-ups found in The Avengers or Fantastic Four.
