    Hands of the Mandarin Part 1 of 6. "Goodbye Hong Kong" Guest-starring War Machine. Script by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning. Pencils by Dave Taylor. Inks by Rey Garcia. Cover by Dave Ross and Rey Garcia. A quiet morning in Hong Kong is violently interrupted by an attack from the Mandarin's malevolent minions! The Avatars, five bizarre creatures with supernatural powers, begin ripping up the city and moving towards the headquarters of Stark Industries' Far East Division! The slaughter of the innocent civilians will continue unchecked... unless Force Works intervenes! So in dramatic fashion the Scarlet Witch, Century, Spider-Woman, and the U.S. Agent airdrop into the island city and counterattack against Lich, Foundry, Deluge, Q'wake, and Butterfly! Meanwhile at the conclusion to Iron Man 310, the Mandarin captured Iron Man and War Machine! And now the two armored avengers stand immobilized before the Chinese super-villain! Shell-Head and Rhodey are at the mercy of the Mandarin! And unfortunately he has no mercy! Story continues in War Machine (1994-1996 1st series) #9. First appearance of Suzi Endo. Cameo appearances by Bethany Cabe and the Recorder. (Notes: This six-part story is previewed in detail in the Iron Man & Force Works collectors' preview issue (published in November 1994).
