"Day of the Remains" Plot by Kurt Busiek. Script by John Francis Moore. Art by Leonardo Manco. Cover by Leonardo Manco. The Avengers' support staff took the team's defeat (and apparent deaths) at the hands of Onslaught very, very hard two years ago. In fact one member of the staff, Fabian Stankowicz, decided to take it upon himself to build a group of robots (from spare parts of Sentinels) to replace the Avengers. And now Fabian's "protectorate" is ready to guard New York City! But when the four powerful robots begin their aggressive patrolling, Earth's Mightiest Heroes take notice! And an awesome battle kicks off between the Mighty Avengers and the protectorate at the 59th Street Bridge! However Fabian built his robots super tough! And the actual key to victory lies with the Avengers' faithful butler: Edwin Jarvis! An excellent story! Cameo appearances by Peggy Carter, Michael O'Brien, and Pepper Potts. Flashback cameos by the Black Widow, Hercules, Moondragon, Quicksilver, She-Hulk, Scott Lang, Cassie Lang, War Machine, Angel, Beast, Iceman, Daredevil, and Dum Dum Dugan to recap how Natasha tried to rebuild the Avengers following the events of Onslaught Marvel Universe (1996) #1. Avengers Lineup: Captain America, Firestar, Iron Man, Justice, Scarlet Witch, Thor, Vision, and Wonder Man. (Note: This issue was reprinted in 2005 in the hardcover: Avengers Assemble #2.) 48 pages.
