What If Spider-Man Had Been A Defender?
Back when Dr. Strange first got the Defenders together, the team consisted of members who had very questionable backgrounds in regards to how the general public felt about them...Hulk, Sub-Mariner, Surfer, and Valkyrie all had been at odds with humanity in the past. Misunderstood anti-heroes, if you will. (all except Valkyrie, iirc, who's first appearance was actually The Enchatress incognito)...even later "members" all had questionable pasts such as Hawkeye and Nighthawk...
The "team" had no charter or special rules, usually met in the good Doctor's home, and then went their seperate ways.
This would have been PERFECT for Spider-Man.
Considering he was friends with Dr. Strange LONG before any of the other Defenders were, and the fact that back in those days, Spider-Man was wanted by the police, and thanks to the Daily Bugle most of the general public hated and feared him, it always puzzled me why Strange never called on Peter for assistance.
I would love to see a What If with Spidey fighting alongside the Defenders...
