Want It Got It TPB: The New Defenders

UPDATE: Coming Soon as a TPB at Amazon...New Defender - Volume 1. Not all the issues I wanted but there should be Volume 2 to follow. Hopefully, it won't take as long as Alpha Flight Volume 2; which was years!

Includes: The New Defenders #125-152

This title was so close to being an X-Men title it's kind of funny. I loved this series, because it had the Beast, Iceman, and Angel as part of the Defenders. It's one of the few TPB I want; which I wouldn't mind being an Essential book (without color).

Clipped from Wikipedia: As of issue #125, Defenders was retitled to New Defenders as the "big four" (Doctor Strange, the Silver Surfer, the Hulk, and Namor) were forced to leave the team. This was the result of an alien prophecy that stated that these four, operating as a group, would be responsible for destroying the world.

The Beast formed the team into an official team complete with government clearance. The remaining Defenders disbanded in New Defenders #152. Several members had seemingly died in battle with the Dragon of the Moon and the remaining members left the team to join X-Factor.

Several of these seemingly-deceased members later returned in issues of Solo Avengers, in Strange Tales vol. 2 #5-7, followed by issues #3-4 of the relaunched Doctor Strange,
