The Black Widow, however, had her plans foiled by Iron Man. One of her assignments was to infiltrate Stark Industries with her partner Boris Turgenov in the assassination of Anton Vanko. During this time, Widow fell in love with a somewhat brainwashed Bucky Barnes. She pursued them but was ordered to abort the mission. When Wolverine came back to America, Black Widow saved him from Hydra assassins and encountered him again when Ben Grimm and Carol Danvers stole the Red Storm project from Russia. However, she was taken back (against her will) by Ivan, Captain America, and Wolverine. Ivan also protected Natasha, until in 1941, when she was kidnapped by the Nazi Baron Strucker and was made an assassin for the Hand.
