Summary:

Heroes For Hire first originated with the superhero team of Power Man and Iron Fist. The two rented out their services, acting as security, bodyguards, investigators and other items that needed a super powered touch to them. The series lasted until issue #125.

The current series is based around original Heroes For Hire characters Misty Knight and Colleen Wing, known as the Daughters of the Dragon. The two had showed up in the original series, helping Power Man and Iron Fist in their adventures. Now, they act as bail bondsman, tracking down super villains that miss their appointed court dates, using force if necessary.

In the recent Civil War storyline, Iron Man has recruited the Heroes For Hire to act as bounty hunters, tracking down the super villains that have refused to register. They have chosen not to pursue the heroes, leaving that to Iron Man and his allies. They have tried to reason with Captain America recently though, to no avail.
