Synopsis
Searching the past two months for the Silver Surfer, the Sub-Mariner
and Dr. Strange’s astral form search the northern oceans when Namor is
attacked by the Surfer. During the fight, the Surfer easily over power
the monarch of the sea to go to the location of a valley.
Traveling back to Dr. Strange’s Sanctum in New York, Dr. Strange
deduces that the Silver Surfer is going to the location where his late
friend Kenneth Ward found the statue of the Undying Ones. Recruiting the
aid of the Hulk, the three heroes travel to the Himalayas and convince
some of the local townspeople to show them up to the site. Attacked by
the native monkeys, the fight them off and find the Surfer.
Demanding answers, the Surfer explains that once he had found
this valley of apes, he lived among them for the past two months.
Suddenly the apes change form, their leader introducing himself as
Calizuma and his minions are the Warrior Wizards. Battling the Wizards,
the heroes make short work of them, and take down Calizuma by striking
him with all their power at once. With the foes defeated, Strange uses a
spell of atonement on them. The Surfer then agrees to join them in
stopping the forces that conspire against the group.

Synopsis
In an attempt to help the Silver Surfer escape Earth and return to
his home planet, Doctor Strange inadvertently transports himself and his
compatriots from the Valley of the Undying Ones to the Realm of the
Nameless One. There they find and rescue the girl Barbara Norriss, who
previously sacrificed herself to save Strange. The group are then caught
in a violent maelstrom which sucks them towards a hole in the
macrocosm. Thanks to the efforts of Namor, Hulk and the Silver Surfer,
the five manage to escape their fate only to confront the Nameless One
which is now combined with Barbara whose loneliness had driven her to
mate with the creature and dupe her former friends. A battle ensues
which culminates in Strange and the Surfer trapping the three-headed
Nameless One in his own snare. Unwilling to leave Barbara, Strange uses
his magic to release her from the monster only to discover that she has
gone insane. Sensing that they have now passed beyond the barrier around
Earth placed there by Galactus to imprison the Surfer, Strange returns
the group to their own dimension – only to discover that they are on
Earth. Angered to find that he is still trapped and feeling betrayed,
the Surfer departs alone leaving Doctor Strange to ponder the disastrous
mission and his suitability for the role of leader of the Defenders.
Synopsis
A dying man stumbles into the camp of two men in the Arctic. He tells
them that he has sighted an alien near his cabin and implores them to
seek out the creature’s advanced knowledge. The man dies and the two are
skeptical about his story but are familiar enough with the man to know
that he does not lie, and so they go and check it out. When they arrive
at the iceberg the dying man indicated, they climb to the top, but can
detect nothing. They chalk his story up to an hallucination and head
back to camp. After they’ve left, an alien emerges from the water, where
it had been hiding. Since it overheard the men’s conversation, the
alien comments about how primitive they are to not even consider that
life exists on other worlds. He gets into the iceberg the men had
climbed upon, and blasts off in his disguised spaceship not to return
until the humans have matured.
