From _Iron Man_ v.3, no.1, S. Chen

The Death Squad is a group of mercenaries with high-tech paramilitary gear. Little is known about them. In Marvel Comics, they were hired by the Mandarin to assassinate industrialist Tony Stark (aka Iron Man). In my own campaign, they work for Parnival Plunder, and were students of the Taskmaster. Their equipment is changeable, as they will presumably carry specialized technology depending on their mission.
