Living with the Avengers

When Crystal became a part of the new Avengers team, Marilla and Luna traveled with her and made Avengers Mansion their home. She had a lot of trouble with the mansion’s buttler, Jarvis. Even the almost always polite Jarvies cleary made his dislike of her noticible.

Death

Eventually Marilla was killed by a mind-controlered Tony Stark when she discovered his plans to take out the Avengers. Not much was heard about mourning her death, but that was possibly because of the events that followed, with Iron Man turning against the Avengers. Years later, Marilla was honored as one of the dead member of the Avengers.
