Animated Appearances
The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes
Not much about Susan's past has been shown thus far, except that she got trapped in the Baxter Building when it was sent to space by the dastardly Dr. Doom. At some unknown point, Sue was replaced by a Skrull imposter. She was constantly sedated by her Skrull captors to stop her from using her powers. When Captain America assembled the other prisoners to get their freedom and return to Earth, refused to leave the weakened Sue despite Viper telling she would be a load.
She somehow saved her teammates and the whole Baxter Building from her doppelganger. Some time later, she was part of the Avengers' expanded team against Galactus.
