While they were besieged by Rock Trolls, Black Widow told Daredevil and Dagger: "My grandfather was at the siege of Stalingrad in Nineteen Forty-Three. They held out against the Germans through two winters. It was a battle the Soviets knew they could not win. But they held and they held and they held. They held to keep the Nazis busy and buy their comrades time to build new tanks and armies."
