Arkon exists because Roy Thomas is a little autistic nerdy shit
The one that Hulk is fighting exists in the microverse because he's still there after shrinking down to fight a parasite in the brain of his ex-girlfriend's husband that was implanted in there by the Russian mutant genius the Gremlin (Jr. after the first one defected and died after fighting the Hulk and changing his ways)

I can only assume that enough people back in the day disgreed with your assessment that of what the Defenders were meant to be.
Although given the writers didn't do that, who can say.

Seriously, are Matt Murdock and She-Hulk the ONLY working lawyers in Marvel? Now that he's with the DA and She-Hulk got Bendis'd, the conviction rate is going to skyrocket.

I could easily believe that if a movie today tried this, it would get EXACTLY this reaction.

The Red Guardians are cool. If they made a Black Widow movie, they could do worse that using the plot of the Hawkeye/Widow Widowmaker miniseries with he dead Red Guardian husband showing up alive and setting up a private army.

But that really doesn't work with a Widow that was born in 1984.
