Sentinel Squad ONE

(Marvel, 2006)
™ and © Marvel Characters, Inc.

Considering the events of Marvel’s House of M, Avengers Disassembled, and Decimation storylines, it’s no wonder that the government wanted it’s own super-hero team. Of course, any government team should not only beat the snot out of everyone else, but be easily repaired when it doesn’t. Being 100 feet tall is always nice, too.

Funded by the Office of National Emergency (O*N*E), the Squad utilizes human-piloted Sentinel armor designed by Tony Stark (aka Iron Man)… his variation on the giant robots best known for giving the mutant X-Men so much trouble. With Valerie Cooper (from X-Factor and numerous government-related stories) and James Rhodes (who, as both Iron Man and War Machine, is very comfortable with WMD-class suits) handling the leadership chores, Sentinel Squad O*N*E is ready to face any threat, from your average super-villain (or hero…) to the planet-devouring Galactus!
