IRON AVENGERS 2.0 -- KING BRITAIN'S KNIGHTS OF THE WORLD -- THE IRON MEN.
PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on a double-page spread of the mighty Iron Men, created by Tony Stark to supplant the deceased Avengers super-teams, from "Universe X Omnibus" Vol. 1 #1. June, 2001. Marvel Comics.
BIO: "Without Tony Stark, the Iron Avengers were leaderless. Their bodies had been rebuilt along with their personalities -- personalities based on those of the Avengers who had been killed years before. Yet they had no direction. No home. No purpose.
Until King Britain invited them to become Knights of the World under the leadership of his heir, the Black Knight. Others, desiring to ally themselves against the growing numbers of Immortus's cult, joined them in their quest.
The Black Widow, who already lives in England as an ambassador from Russia.
The Iron Maiden, whose knowledge and experience of Vibranium has been key to understanding the new balance of Vibranium in the world...as well as the shifting polarities within the planet's crust as a result of Galactus's consumption of the Celestial within Earth's core.
Tank, who was imprisoned in Sentinel City by the former Brotherhood of Evil Mutants member known as Toad.
And the Jade Dragon, a former victim of the Skull who has joined the team out of his feelings for the Iron Maiden."
