Force Works

    (Marvel, 1994-1996)
™ and ©1996 Marvel Entertainment Group

Force Works was formed by millionaire Tony Stark, who is best known as the alter ego of Iron Man. The group’s membership changed over time, and included Scarlet Witch, Spider-Woman, U.S.Agent, Wonder Man, and the alien Century.

Running twenty-two issues in all from 1994 to 1996, it was primarily a team series featuring underused Marvel super-heroes. Sporting plots that were convoluted even by Marvel standards, the series was mostly overlooked during its run.
