The Defenders were a team of street-based vigilantes/superheroes that was founded by Daredevil, Black Cat, Spider-Man, Power Man, Iron Fist, and Jewel, in order to help protect the streets of New York City, but were frequently being hunted by S.H.I.E.L.D., believing that vigilantes are outlaws and may be considered a threat since they don't have government authority to do such tasks. They eventually have come to help the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. defeat Loki and the Chitauri Army.
After the invasion, several members of the group, including a founding member of the group have left the team for various reasons. It was later revealed that one of the members who left the Defenders have joined the Avengers, much to their surprise and were happy for him, but some were disappointed for him joining the other team.
Avengers vs. Defenders
After the invasion, many people believed, loved, and finally supported the Defenders' acts, but most were still not amused including S.H.I.E.L.D., and still believes that they should be hunted down since they don't have the authority to takes the law into their own hands and just do whatever they want on their own, without it's authority.
Because of that, the U.S. Government had ordered S.H.I.E.L.D. to assign the Avengers to finally hunt, track and take down the Defenders. Although he is now an Avenger, Spider-Man still resisted on fighting his old team and insisted S.H.I.E.L.D. to just let them be, but he had no choice and still continued their mission.
At first, the Avengers tried to talk the Defenders down and tried convincing them to stop because what they are doing is very unlawful, but the Defenders still resisted, replying that it isn't unlawful to do what is morally right. The argument between two teams goes on, until it eventually led into them battling each other after the Avengers had no choice but to arrest them under S.H.I.E.L.D.'s command. The fight lasted for hours, until they were defeated, and were taken into custody in the Triskelion.
They were remained imprisoned under the custody of S.H.I.E.L.D. until a group of powerful super-soldiered criminals known as the Wrecking Crew and the international science-terrorists who hired them known as A.I.M., have started ravaging and causing destruction and chaos in the city during a small war against it's rival organization, the corrupted and the mysterious [[w:c:marvel:Roxxon Corporation
