Biography

Origin

Yelena Belova

Black Widow

She later joined S.H.I.E.L.D. where she became a freelance operative of the espionage agency that managed the Vibranium mining operation in the Savage Land. During this time, the new Avengers arrived in pursuit of Karl Lykos following him after his escape from the Raft. Upon arriving at the rogue facility, Belova commanded S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to attack the Avengers but they refused leading to their swift capture. Yelena refused to reveal anything except that she was working on S.H.I.E.L.D. when she was attacked by Lykos's alternate persona Sauron who breathed fire on her causing her body to be engulfed in flames. This led to her fleeing into the jungles of the Savage Land where she was badly wounded but was recovered by her benefactor who offered her a chance at revenge with Belova accepting the deal. (New Avengers v1 #6) This was an operative from Hydra who alongside A.I.M. offered her the chance to get revenge by providing her with the abilities of an Adaptoid. As a result, Yelena made a full-recovery and in disguise she attacked Avengers Tower when the Mayor was visiting the Avengers. The proximity of the Avengers allowed Yelena to absorb each of their powers where she overpowered them until Stark used Iron Man Armors remotely to attack her. She was defeated when the Sentry overwhelmed Yelena's powers due to his ties to the Void causing her to be paralysed with fear. To prevent her from revealing their secrets, her handler detonated a remote bomb causing her body to explode seemingly killing Belova. (New Avengers Annual v1 #1)

In the aftermath, Belova was hiding in Symkaria when she was confronted by Natasha who did not want a fight but wanted Yelena to help her on an assignment. They broke into a classified server site where they encountered an imposter disguised as Nastasha Romanoff. (Web of Black Widow v1 #3)

Overview

Personality and attributes

Powers and abilities

For a time, she was biologically modified to possess the powers of an Adaptoid allowing her to absorb the superpowers of anyone she touched. Her body was able to hold multiple abilities which she could use in conjunction with one another against her enemies. Despite this, she was not used to superhuman abilities and thus was not adept in their use. (New Avengers Annual v1 #1)
