History
The Heroes for Hire was a business that was founded by Luke Cage and Danny Rand. The two then came to form Heroes for Hire, Inc., founded by attorney Jeryn Hogarth and staffed by administrative wunderkind Jennie Royce. (Power Man and Iron Fist v1 #54)
The pair first met at a party held by Jeryn celebrating Luke Cage's exoneration of all charges they were attacked by Stiletto and Discus teaming up to take them down. (Power Man and Iron Fist v1 #50)
Cleared of criminal charges, they briefly worked for Misty Knight's detective agency Nightwing Restorations but soon elected to become a two-man team named the 'Heroes for Hire'. Although the streetwise Cage and the unworldly Iron Fist seemed to have little in common, they soon became the best of friends. (Power Man and Iron Fist v1 #53)
Danny visited Joy Meachum and relinquished control of his share of Rand-Meachum Inc. to her until such a time that he believed he's earned the wealth from the company. Their first official mission as a team was against the Incinerator who tried to rob Manhattan National Bank. They took him down easily using the sprinkler system, then Cage just knocked him out. (Power Man and Iron Fist v1 #54) They next attended a local car show to advertise the business, which Cage found boring until it was attacked by the Bull and his thugs. Their mission was to steal the Fantasti-Car which was on display at the show. The duo took out the thugs with little effort. (Power Man and Iron Fist v1 #55)
Luke and Danny came to re-form the Heroes for Hire when Daredevil had become the leader of the Hand and taken over Hell's Kitchen by establishing Shadowland. (Shadowland: Power Man v1 #2)
When it was inactive, Deadpool looked to appropriate the name for the use in his own team after being inspired when Solo masqueraded as him. This angered Luke Cage into getting the name back, thanks to a cease and desist letter proclaiming rights usage. (Deadpool v6 #1)
