And four defenders -- Gargoyle, Valkyrie, Namor, and the Beast -- end up here and there and everywhere. Oh my! Somehow the quartet landed in a Dr. Seuss-esque dimension.

Defenders Lineup: Beast, Dr. Strange, Gargoyle, Hellstorm, Hulk, Silver Surfer, Sub-Mariner, and Valkyrie. 32 pages. Cover price $0.60.
