The Defenders of Neopia are a team of superheroes lead by Judge Hog that foil the plots of Neopian monsters and supervillains. Beginning on 31 May 2002, players were invited help the Defenders by beating certain villains in the Battledome.
Each mission with the Defenders is introduced with a comic strip, and the player, as a new recruit of the Defenders, is sent out to find and beat that villain in the Battledome. The player must complete a mission before they can do the next one. Missions are released slowly over time and of increasing difficulty. Each mission completed earns the player an upgraded trophy.
A second series was released on 12 April 2006, whose sequence of enemies can be battled concurrently to series one.

Trivia[edit]
- The address of the Neohome at which the Ghost Lupe was appears on the comic page 1 Neohome Nightmare. Also, the ghost trap used is similar to the one used by the Ghostbusters.
- In comic page 2 of Meuka Attacks!, Judge Hog called his partner Danger Buzz, but his real name is Sergeant Brexis, as there is a Collectable Card and book named after him.
- When Eryieki was released for Series 2 on May 26, 2006, the link for Mr. Chuckles intro comic was replaced with Eryieki's. This has since been fixed.
- It is unknown if the shopkeeper at the NC Mall Superpack Shop works for the Defenders.
- The title of the sixth mission, It's A Trap, is possibly a reference to a quote from Admiral Ackbar, a character from Return of the Jedi.
