Zoey Daniels never planned on having superhero abilities, but fate had something different in store for her. During the Battle of New York, everyone is focused on Loki and defeating the Chitauri that they didn't notice a certain girl get hit by a Chitauri blast and survive. Zoey woke up thinking she was lucky to be alive, but she began to have weird dreams of a big purple man in a throne and quippy people in a strange spaceship talking to a tree and a talking raccoon. She thought she was going crazy until Tony Stark showed up at her doorstep looking for her next door neighbor, Peter Parker.

Joan has been with the Avengers for a little less than a year now. They had saved her from a Hydra base and has lived with them ever since. Just like Bucky, she was brainwashed and abused. No one knows her story, not even her. The only two people who know who she really is and what she is capable of are Natasha and Bucky. The three decided not to say anything and to keep her situation quiet. But that all changes when another one of Hydra's subject joins the avengers.
