The all new Beetle fights Bucky and Black Widow in a short battle and is defeated.

She is imprisoned in the [[Raft]], where she reveals that she knows Captain America and Bucky are one and the same.

However, Zemo still exposes Captain America's true identity to the general public.{{r|Captain America Vol 1 608}}

Beetle Armor MK IV:File:Janice Lincoln (Earth-616) 002.jpg The Beetle suit allows the wearer to fly, and stick to walls. Janice's armor seems to be loosely based on the armor designed by the Tinkerer for Abe Jenkins after his original Beetle armor was destroyed by Iron Man. However, the Zemo/FIxer costume does not seem to have the electro-byte offensive capability or the internal battle computer of Jenkins' suit.
