A brand-new story starring beloved characters from the Defenders of the Earth animated show, written by comics industry juggernaut Dan DiDio and drawn by veteran artist Alex Sanchez.

THE DEFENDERS ON TRIAL! Mongo is a shattered empire—and it’s at least partly Flash Gordon’s fault. The Defenders of the Earth may have saved their home planet, but Mongo paid a hefty price for Ming the Merciless’s games. Now the toll’s come due—and it’s the Defenders who will pay it. And while the Defenders face their former friends and allies, their offspring face challenges of their own. Determined to find his missing mother, Dale, Rick Gordon and his friends K’Shin, Zuffy, LJ, and Jedda investigate a former secret base held by the son of Ming. Kro-Tan may be gone, but the danger is not. A fan-favorite villain goes after the Second Gen Defenders! Writer Dan DiDio and artist Alex Sanchez pick up the beloved characters from the classic animated series and spin a whole new adventure!
