Lucky meets Kate Bishop
In December 2024, Lucky was sitting alone in the snow outside the entrance of a hotel in which a charity gala was taking place. Lucky was greeted by Kate Bishop, who had just walked outside from the hotel, but was distracted by the sound of a horn honking, running off to chase it.[2]
Robbery of the Black Market Auction[]
Lucky attacks one of the Tracksuit Mafia
After the Tracksuit Mafia began a heist of the black market auction taking place below the charity gala, Lucky found a member near a truck loading the stolen goods into a truck. Lucky attacked the criminal, knocking the Mafia member to the ground and biting his leg. As the man struggled to shake Lucky off his leg, Kate Bishop, dressed in the Ronin Suit, arrived and knocked the criminal out with a kick to the face. With the Tracksuit Mafia member down, Lucky ran away, pursued by Bishop.
Lucky is rescued by Kate Bishop
Lucky ran away from the hotel into a busy street. Lucky stopped midway into the street, seconds away from being hit by a vehicle. Lucky was saved by Bishop who managed to run across traffic and roll over the hood of a car to dive and grab Lucky just in time to save his life, bringing him to safety on the other side of the street. The heavy traffic temporarily stopped Kazi Kazimierczak and the rest of the Tracksuit Mafia, who were pursuing Bishop, allowing Lucky and Bishop to retreat safely.[2]
Attack on Kate Bishop's Apartment[]

- "I'm gonna... I'm gonna get you some food. Uh... Pizza? You want some pizza? Have some. Go on. Good boy. Wow. You like pizza."
- ―Kate Bishop[src]
Kate Bishop brought Lucky to her apartment and let him get settled in. Realizing that he was hungry, she searched her refrigerator and found a pizza box, revealing one pizza slice left. She provided him with the pizza to eat and Lucky excitedly ate it up. Bishop left Lucky alone in her apartment while she went to investigate Armand Duquesne III, warning Lucky not to destroy the apartment in her absence.[2]
Lucky sees Kate Bishop and Clint Barton return
Shortly afterwards, Bishop returned to the apartment, now accompanied by Clint Barton, who found Lucky next to the pizza box he had began chewing apart. After Bishop changed out of Ronin's Suit, Lucky ran upstairs while Barton interrogated Bishop about the suit.
Lucky fleeing the fire in the apartment
The Tracksuit Mafia managed to track Bishop to her apartment, throwing two Molotov cocktails inside, starting a fire in the kitchen. The two archers briefly attempted to prevent further damage, with Barton catching the next Molotov cocktail to throw back at the Mafia while Bishop shot another with an arrow. However, the fire intensified, forcing Bishop, Barton, and Lucky to have to escape through the fire escape.[1]

Barton took them to a convenience store to pick up some medical supplies for Bishop's injuries.

The next day, Clint Barton and Kate Bishop returned to the apartment after being away for most of the day due to be detained by the Tracksuit Mafia.

Lucky sat with Barton and Bishop as they waited for an audiologist to arrive to fix Barton's hearing aid that had been smashed.

The trio then went to Cranky Pete's Deli for breakfast. Lucky sat down next to the table as Barton and Bishop discussed the realities of being a superhero and Barton's "branding" issues.
