After ''Disassembled'', Janet stepped back from the Avengers, but eventually rejoined following ''ComicBook/CivilWar2006'', as part of the pro-Registration Mighty Avengers. However, her return didn't last long, as Janet was seemingly killed during the ''ComicBook/SecretInvasion'' storyline.

Distraught, the Wasp name was used by Hank Pym himself in Janet's memory, during which he would co-lead the limited series "Ant-Man & Wasp" with then-current Ant-Man Eric O'Grady. In the last arc of Creator/BrianBendis' ''Avengers'' run, Janet was revealed to have been trapped in the [[ComicBook/MicronautsMarvelComics Microverse]], and returned to the Avengers under the new ''ComicBook/UncannyAvengers'' title.
