America Chavez was raised by her mothers in the Utopian Parallel, a dimension out of time and in the presence of the Demiurge. She appeared to have inherited or absorbed some or all of her superpowers from the Demiurge's ambient magical presence. When America was approximately six-years-old, the Utopian Parallel was threatened by destruction. America's mothers heroically sacrificed themselves to seal the black holes pulling Utopia into the common Multiverse resulting in their particles being smeared across the Multiverse itself. Wanting to prove herself as a hero and knowing Utopia didn't require salvation, America ran away from her home and her responsibilities.[6][7] She travelled across different dimensions, eventually adopted the moniker of Miss America, and began covertly acting as a superhero.
With the Teen Brigade, she freed the In-Betweener from government confinement center, Groom Lake Adjacent in Nevada.[2] With information from the In-Between, the Teen Brigade set out to prevent the Young Masters of Evil from disrupting the balance between Chaos and Order.[8] To stop the Young Masters from recruiting Kid Loki, Miss America broke into the Met, but Loki used the Screaming Idol to send her to the Sixth Dimension.[3] There she fought Tiboro, and was later rescued by the Last Defenders, She-Hulk and Hellstrom, under the direction of the In-Betweener.[9] She rejoined her teammates in Latveria where they fought the Braak'nhüd, Young Masters and Doctor Doom. The battle was ended when Ultimate Nullifier shot the In-Betweener. While the smoke cleared, the Teen Brigade covertly departed.[10]
Ultimate Nullifier and America briefly engaged in a romantic fling, but it ended when America abruptly left the Teen Brigade.[11][12]
Miss America parted ways with the Teen Brigade due to "musical differences," and eventually travelled to Earth-212. She was approached by the teenage trickster godLoki. He attempted to persuade Miss America into killing Wiccan for the good of the Multiverse. Disgusted with the proposition, Miss America fought Loki and decided to secretly protect Wiccan,[13] the person who was destined to become the Demiurge.[11] In reality, Loki wanted to get Miss America's attention so she could help protect Wiccan from a predicament the young trickster was going to secretly put him in.[6]
When Loki was about to interfere in a spell being cast by Wiccan, that allowed the interdimensional parasite known as Mother enter this universe, America tried to stop him from supposedly trying to kill Wiccan. Following the intervention of the spell, Wiccan's boyfriend Hulkling intervened in the fight, and Miss America fled with little explanation.[14]
Miss America subsequently saved Wiccan, Hulkling and Loki from Laufey, Loki's father, who had been resurrected due to Mother's influence. Following the rescue, Miss America's mothers also were brought back to life. The young heroes retreated to MJ's, where the young trickster explained the events, omitting the details that would incriminate him.[6] Mother caught up with the teenagers, but they were saved by Wiccan and Hulkling's friend Kate Bishop and her boyfriend Noh-Varr.[15] Mother gave chase to the young heroes, using an army of mind-controlled adults and the reborn dead parents.
The Young Avengers
When they were cornered in Central Park, Miss America and her allies were able to fend off Mother's forces and fly far away, which caused Mother to fade away. Loki explained that Mother's powers were distance-based, so she wouldn't be able to return to the universe as long as any of the teenage heroes were near their parents or the location where their parents had died. The young heroes decided to stay together and travel through the universe as the Young Avengers.[16]File:America Chavez (Utopian Parallel) from Marvel NOW! Point One Vol 1 1 001.jpg
America flying
Over the course of three months, the Young Avengers adventured throughout the universe, and Miss America kept her motivation for protecting Wiccan a secret. They jumped into action to track down a mysterious entity dressed as former Young Avenger Patriot who had kidnapped Wiccan's brother Speed.[17] The mysterious entity brought them to Mother's Dimension, but they managed to quickly escape.[18]
Mother gained access to this universe once again after Hulkling was tricked into returning to New York City. The evil parasite threatened to unleash the evil versions of the Young Avengers to the world.[11] The real Young Avengers confronted Mother and her new allies, a team of Young Avengers formed by Leah.[19]
During the battle, it was revealed Leah and her Young Avengers were actually a physical manifestation of Loki's guilt and the missing powers which he subconsciously gave up due to his guilt over killing his younger self.[20] Loki finally confessed his crimes, the murder of his younger self and the manipulations the Young Avengers had been victims of. His confession made Leah and her Young Avengers disappear, thus Loki regained his powers and freed Teddy. Hulkling comforted Billy, and reconciliation with him. Their reunion allowed Billy to become the Demiurge and destroy Mother.[21]
Celebrating Mother's defeat, the Young Avengers threw a New Year's party, along with many young heroes that had come to their rescue.[7] When the team departed the place using one of Miss America's portals, Loki, from behind, took a photo of the moment.[12]
Battleworld
A-Force
Ms. America and A-Force
After the collapse of the Multiverse, America found herself living on Arcadia with Nico Minoru, her foster sister, and an Arcadian Loki, her foster mother. At some point around this time, she started using the alias Ms. America. They were all members of A-Force. America fought alongside the team until she threw a megalodon across the Shield. With this action, she violated "one of Battleworld's greatest laws," "endangered everyone under [the Shield's] protection," and had "forsaken the sanctity of Doom's borders." She was arrested by Thor of the Thor Corps and was sentenced to spend the rest of her life working at the Shield.[22]
At some point, Lady Katherine got a sudden and mysterious craving for pizza. America created a portal and they began a quest. After searching many locales, they finally came across Manhattan. Miraculously, the first thing they happened upon was a dog with a box of pizza in its mouth. Katherine named it Pizza Dog and concluded that the dog was what they had been searching for the whole time. Lady Katherine then insisted that they must find someone named "Barton." Ms. America conceded and created another portal.[28]
Eventually Spectrum succeeded with help from Blue Marvel and Captain Marvel, and Galactus was forced back from whence he came.[31]
America caught up with Kate Bishop over dinner in New York. America encouraged Kate to become more independent of her mentor, Clint Barton, because she could see all the emotional stress he was causing her. The two then went dancing.[32] The next morning, Kate called America and told her that being a superhero was what she needed right then. America told her that she was starting to sound like "the wrong Hawkeye."[33]
America attended an emergency Ultimates team meeting to discuss the matter of the newly re-invented Galactus the Lifebringer. Adam stressed that the main problem they faced was all the ways time had been broken because of the development of Doctor Doom's "Doomlock" technology. America told them that because her experience with alternate realities she knew that changing the past so that Doctor Doom never invented Doomlock was not an option. Adam then revealed that he and T'Challa had been developing a way to get outside the space time continuum to assess the damage. They all got into the modified Quinjet and America created a portal that led to deep space, then the Superflow, and then into the Neutral Zone, where they found Conner Sims, the Anti-Man.[4] Ms. America kept the "local fauna" under control and out of the teams' way while Blue Marvel, Spectrum, and Captain Marvel negotiated with Simms.[34]File:America Chavez (Utopian Parallel) and Monica Rambeau (Earth-616) from Ultimates Vol 2 1 001.png
Ms. America and Spectrum
Once they were all back inside the jet, America created another portal and they traveled outside the Neutral Zone. Immediately, the Ultimates realized that moving outside the omniverse was a bad idea (because their ship was collapsing) and needed America to create another portal to bring them back in. America, however, seemed to have met her match. Unconscious in the back of the jet, she was dreaming about a conversation she had had with her girlfriend, Lisa, in which Lisa encouraged her to keep going and reminded her that she had lots of friends who cared about her. Spectrum managed to revive America, but not in time. The quinjet broke apart, and all seemed lost until Galactus, formerly the most unlikely of saviors, rescued them. He said that he saved them because he owed them a debt. When the Ultimates explained to him that they had come to take measurements in an attempt to fix time, Galactus responded that time was not broken, merely fluid, with past and future events sometimes changing. Galactus then told the Ultimates to sleep.[35] Galactus returned the Ultimates to Captain Marvel's Alpha FlightLow-Orbit Space Station.[36]
An Emergency Meeting
Patsy Walker invited America and some other heroes to an "emergency meeting" to eat burgers. Patsy introduced them all to her plan to start a temp agency for superheroes.[37]
The Ultimates under Captain Marvel's lead along with White Fox visited the Grandmaster to investigate the murder of Gun-R. The Grandmaster admitted that he had started a new Contest of Champions and forced Gun-R to fight in it. Instead of fighting the Ultimates, the Grandmaster volunteered information about the location of the God-King Maestro. America created a portal, and they attacked his castle.[38] Blue Marvel attempted to attack the God-King Maestro, but he used the Iso-Sphere to send all of the Ultimates back to the Triskelion with no memory of their time in Battleworld.[39]
After a new Inhuman named Ulysses Cain emerged who could see visions of the future, the superhero community was divided over the morality of using his powers to stop crimes before they even happened. When Ulysses predicted an attack by the Celestial Destructor, Ms. America fought against it alongside the Ultimates and most other active heroes. After its defeat, she attended Iron Man's afterparty with the other heroes.[40]
When Ulysses predicted another attack on Earth, this time by Thanos. Ms. America and the other Ultimates (along with A-Force, Human Torch, and War Machine) defeated him at the cost of War Machine's life and grave injury suffered by She-Hulk.[41] America in tears waited in the hallway outside of She-Hulk's hospital room at the Triskelion, slightly worse for the wear herself as she had received some cuts and scrapes during the fight.[40] Monica thought that America was taking Rhodey's death and Jennifer's injuries particularly hard because she was young and thought that it was her fault because she hadn't done her job well enough. Monica was sad that she felt that way but glad that she was at least texting Lisa for comfort.[42]File:Patricia Walker (Earth-616) and America Chavez (Utopian Parallel) from Patsy Walker, A.K.A. Hellcat! Vol 1 8.png
More sad news
Patsy Walker texted America because she thought Jen was in trouble. America used a portal to travel to Patsy's apartment, and told her the sad news that Jen was in a coma. America helped Patsy break into the Triskelion to visit her, although she told her she was on her own to get out.[43]
America didn't actually attend James Rhodes' funeral, but she met Kate Bishop outside of it. Kate wanted her to talk about his death since she knew how hard America was taking it, but instead of talking, America showed Kate a bunch of alternate universes where War Machine didn't die. America said that, "This James is dead, and I hate that I couldn't save him, but there are a near infinite number of James Rhodeses out there." Kate questioned her, asking if she really saw them all as interchangeable and America said that even though there are so many realities where he didn't die, on Earth-616 he died fighting for people that he cared about and she greatly admired that.[44]File:William Kaplan (Earth-616), Theodore Altman (Earth-616), Katherine Bishop (Earth-616), America Chavez (Utopian Parallel) and David Alleyne (Earth-616) from Civil War II Choosing Sides Vol 1 3.jpg
A reunion, of sorts
After Hawkeye (Clint Barton) killed Bruce Banner because of events precipitated by another one of Ulysses' visions, America, Monica, Adam, and T'Challa watched Carol testify during his trial on television.[45] America, Billy Kaplan, Teddy Altman, and David Alleyne tried to cheer up their former Young Avengers teammate, Kate Bishop, who was depressed about Clint's trial and situation.[46]
The Ultimates, along with Giant Man built a containment device for the Infinaut, based on one of Ulysses' predictions. Because of Ulysses vision, they knew exactly where the Infinaut was going to materialize and had time to prepare for his arrival.[47]
Ms. America, Spectrum, and Black Panther followed Captain Marvel to the site of an attack on a Stark facility, where they found Medusa and the Inhumans. Although the Inhumans claimed to be innocent, the exchange quickly turned violent. The conflict ended when Medusa told Lockjaw to teleport the Ultimates back to the Triskelion.[48]
Ms. America and the rest of the Ultimates helped Captain Marvel apprehend Alison Green after Ulysses predicted that she had a black hole generator in her briefcase. Ms. America told Black Panther that she had some reservations about Captain Marvel's enthusiasm in acting on Ulysses' predictions. When they found out that the briefcase was empty, and Captain Marvel said that it was time for her teammates to decide if they were with or against her, America hit her with a chair declaring her intentions. She said that she had been to realities with predictive justice, and that it never turned out how it was intended. Captain Marvel told Spectrum to incapacitate Ms. America by flying into her eyes in light form, but America created a tiny portal in her eye, sending Monica far, far away. The fight stopped when the Triskelion lost power, meaning that the formerly imprisoned Conner Simms and Thanos could walk free.[49]
Miss America likely received her powers from her proximity to the Demiurge and his ambient magical presence.[50] Though the full extent of her powers have not been defined, she has demonstrated abilities including:
Self-Propelled Flight: Miss America has the ability of self-propelled flight at superhuman speeds.[2]
Superhuman Speed: Chavez can run and move at phenomenal speeds, Monica Rambeau was stunned at how fast she was moving even after transcending into light form where everything stands still.[51]
Invulnerability: Miss America is bullet-proof,[3] flame retardant,[9] and has superhuman durability.[53] Loki has even referred to her as "a nearly indestructible superwoman".[52]
Interdimensional Travel: Miss America can create portals to travel between realities.[54]
In-Betweener Facsimile (formerly): Miss America was briefly imbued with the energy signature and aesthetic appearance of the In-Betweener to act as decoy and lure off Braak'nhüd while the In-Betweener, Ultimate Nullifier, Angel, and Bohusk explored the In-Betweener's mind and the threat to the Multiverse.[55]
Abilities
America Chavez is bilingual, speaking both fluent English and Spanish.[56]
Loki granted America magic cell reception so that she can receive calls and texts in space.[29]
Trivia
Loki's list of Young Avengers characters in Marvel NOW! Point One #1 describes Miss America as "One mysterious interdimensional superhero with mysterious background and mysterious anger issues."
America has mentioned she's not really a fan of "Earth-Earth".[13]
Based on Angel Salvadore's comments, Miss America is not yet sixteen years old during the events of Vengeance #1.
He later said that she was around 17 while she was part of the team.[59] This actually makes her younger than Hawkeye, who was 20 at the beginning of the series and turned 21 before the end,[19][7] Loki, who was a reincarnation of an immortal god, Noh-Varr, who was also 21,[19] and probably Prodigy, who was 17 during New X-Men Volume 2 which took place before Young Avengers.[60]
America Chavez shared the moniker of Miss America with the World War II superheroine Madeline Joyce. There appears to be no connection or relation between the two, and writer Kieron Gillen has commented that he "half thinks [America] doesn’t even know that anyone else used the name".[61]
Among fans, America is often referred to as "MAC", the initials of Miss America Chavez. Carol Danvers adopted the nickname for her in Ultimates Volume 2.
Although she is seen in a romantic relationship with Ultimate Nullifier during her first appearance with the Teen Brigade in Vengeance #1, America later confirmed, despite not wanting to be a cliché, she was merely experimenting with Ultimate Nullifier and now identifies herself as a lesbian.[12] She has gone on at least one date with Lisa Halloran.[29]
America does not seem to remember her time on Battleworld.[30]
In Patsy Walker's phone, America's name is accompanied by American flag, fist, and star emojis.[37]
Ms. America's birthday is July 4th, American Independence Day.[62]
