Netflix fans had a Summer blast with the San Diego Comic-Con and the flood of revelations and new releases that came with it. As the craze settles down, what shows will be coming and going on Netflix this August?

For ongoing series, the highlight of the coming month is the Marvel cross-over series "The Defenders," coming on Aug. 18. Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and the Iron Fist will team up in a couple of weeks, which is a must-see for Marvel fans on the streaming service.

The Western adaptation of anime series "Death Note" will run as a Netflix Original Movie and it will premiere on Aug. 25. Fans would then be able to see if it lives up to the hype of the original. Kids shows will have an update as well, with "How to Train Your Dragon" and "Voltron: Legendary Defender" coming just before the end of August.
