Defenders: Beyond

Plot

Acclaimed creators Al Ewing and Javier Rodríguez follow up their mind-bending first DEFENDERS arc with a brand-new saga -- and an all-new lineup, including everyone's favorite trickster: Loki, God of Stories! When the dearly departed Doctor Strange sends a dire warning from beyond the grave, America Chavez, the Blue Marvel, Tigra and Loki assemble alongside Taaia -- mother of Galactus -- to defend reality itself! Their incredible journey takes them all the way back to the Second Cosmos, where their lives lie in the hands of its almighty overseers -- unless Loki can figure out the right trick to save them all! But not everybody will make it out unscathed... Featuring the long-awaited return of the Beyonder -- and he's not the only cosmic powerhouse the Defenders will need to contend with. Enter...the Phoenix!
