He fell deeply in love with her and the two were married. He was nursed back to health by Crystal, one of the Inhumans. After battling Sentinels, Quicksilver was gravely wounded. In the interim, Pietro persued a romantic relationship of his own. When Wanda fell in love with the android Vision, Pietro protested loudly, refusing to attend their wedding. During this stint with the Avengers, Pietro played a role in the Kree/ Skrull War, and help against Ares. With the help of the Avengers, Wanda was saved, and as her powers had been restored by the dimensional jump between Earth and Arkon's planet, the twins rejoined the Avengers. Instead, the spell summoned Arkon, who wished for Wanda to be his bride. Since the bullet had erased Wanda's power somehow, the three companions went to Europe, and found a book of spells which they believed could restore Wanda's powers. Eventually he calmed down and left the Brotherhood, but instead of rejoining the Avengers he, Wanda and Toad became traveling companions for a while. Unknown to Pietro and Wanda, the bullet was being controlled by Magneto. Shortly after their return, Quicksilver willingly joined the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants after Scarlet Witch was hit by a bullet, shot by a "mere human". Upon their return, Quicksilver's powers had somehow increased, as he could now fly for short distances by vibrating his feet at high speeds. Whilst at Wundagore Mountain, they were telepathically asked by Professor X to join the X-Men so that they could help fight against Factor Three, but the two mutants declared that should they return to America, it would be as Avengers. Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch had to leave the Avengers when they lost their powers for a short while, and return to their birthplace. Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch served honorably with the Avengers for years, though Pietro’s arrogant and distrusting demeanor often made him an outsider in the group, and he would often clash with Hawkeye over which one of them should replace Captain America as a leader. When they heard that the Avengers were accepting applicants, they rushed to join, wanting to atone for their past crimes. Major Story Arcs New Beginnings Cap's Kooky Quartet His first appearance is in The X-Men #4 which was released on March of 1964. Quicksilver was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby for use in Marvel Comics. When Magneto was taken from Earth by the Stranger, Pietro and Wanda ended their association with the Brotherhood and returned to Europe. Unconsciously however, both twins absorbed Magneto’s attitude of mutant superiority, which would occasionally surface form time to time in their lives. Whilst in the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, both Toad and Mastermind would often play for Scarlet Witch's feelings, and so Quicksilver would stand between her and them. Wanda was more compliant, feeling indebted to Magneto, but was deeply unhappy and often shocked by Magneto’s callous behavior. Pietro always made his disapproval known and repeatedly stated that he stayed only for his sister’s sake. Magneto played on their fear of outsiders and Wanda’s gratitude, but neither twin was comfortable as a terrorist. Despite his best efforts, Wanda and Pietro were trapped until rescued by Magneto.įeeling that they owed him a debt, they reluctantly joined the Brotherhood Of Evil Mutants. One day Wanda accidentally set a house on fire, spurring the locals to attack the twins. Orphaned, the twins wandered Eastern Europe, constantly on the move as Wanda’s uncontrollable hex powers would draw suspicion from the people around them. Using his new found powers, Pietro was able to rescue Wanda. Poor but loved, the twins enjoyed a relatively happy childhood until their family was killed by local villagers angered at Django for stealing food. He did not accept them, but thought that they were his children. Whilst at Wundagore Mountain, they were also offered for adoption to the Whizzer when his wife died. Given her weakened state following delivery, it is assumed that she perished. She then immediately fled into a raging blizzard and was never seen or heard from again. She appeared at the house of Bova, the midwife to the High Evolutionary, heavily pregnant and stayed for a few weeks until she gave birth. In fact, they were born on Wundagore Mountain to a woman only known as Magda, a woman on the run from her husband who had "become a monster". They did not know that they had been adopted. Pietro and his twin sister Wanda (Scarlet Witch) always assumed that they were the children of the gypsy couple that raised them, Django and Marya Maximoff.
