The Fearless Defenders #2!!!
Fearless Defenders #2 was again an entertaining comic book
continuing where the previous issue had left off. Though the story starts out with the
kidnaping of X-men / New Mutant Moonstar and while she put up a valiant defense
she was captured by normal humans. It
will be hard to believe that she would then be of much use against evil
Asgardian or the undead. Though I
suspect we will find her doing just that in future issues. We then return to following Valkyrie, Misty
Knight and Annabelle Riggs who have traveled to Oklahoma to visit Asgard to
learn about the Death Maidens. It turns
out Valkyrie has been procrastinating in her task to find additional Valkyries
to lead in defense of the universe.
There is much recrimination and then a fight with Hela Queen of the
Underworld of death. This leads to the
final splash page where Hela introduces a new character Warrior Woman or as she
prefers to be called Hippolyta. At this
point I will speculate that since the Valkyrie was tasks with finding new
Warrior women and having found all supers so far lacking. I also notice that so far we have only met
female heroes and gods that this incarnation of the Defenders the Fearless
Defenders will become Valkyries or at least fight under Brunhilde’s
leadership. This could make for some
very interesting storytelling. I wonder
how the writers will mess it up.
