History: (Avengers Assemble I#20 (fb)) – Alice Taylor married Denny Kedzierski, who she considered to be the most exciting man that she'd ever met even though her dad thought he was a punk. They remained happy after having their son Tommy. When Tommy went missing and never came home, Alice and Dennis entered a deep grief cycle and Dennis entered a deep depression. Alice watched Dennis struggle for a long time and she wished he could be better, bigger somehow. When the Terrigen Cloud passed over the city, Alice entered a cocoon, exposing her Inhuman nature. As her neighbors Soo Jin Rhee and Hanna came to check on her, the cocoon broke open and Alice's powers manifested. She made Denny into a giant while she and the neighbors shrank down inside the house, winding up in the Microverse, where Gouzar the Centaur and his army threatened them.

(Avengers Assemble I#20) – Wasp shrank down into the Microverse to aid Alice and her neighbors, and she helped Alice learn what her powers were. Alice used her growing powers on Hanna, helping the little girl stomp on Gouzar, then Alice increased the size of the army's guns, overwhelming the soldiers. Finally, Alice restored everyone to normal size, realizing Wonder Man and Scarlet Witch of the Avengers had been helping him. As they surveyed the wreckage of their home, Alice felt hope for her future, realizing she could use her powers for potential good. They joked about her taking the code names Grow-Gal or Size Queen.

Dennis "Denny" Kedzierski

(Avengers Assemble I#20 (fb)) – Alice Taylor married Denny Kedzierski, who she considered to be the most exciting man that she'd ever met, even though her dad thought he was a punk. They remained happy after having their son Tommy. When Tommy went missing and never came home, the Kedzierskis entered a deep grief cycle and Dennis entered a deep depression. Alice watched Dennis struggle for a long time and she wished he could be better, bigger somehow. When the Terrigen Cloud passed over, Alice ended up in a cocoon and Denny panicked, trying to cut her out of it. Neighbors Soo Jin and Hanna Rhee came to check on the Kedzerskis just as Alice broke free, manifesting size-changing powers. She suddenly grew Denny to giant-size while she and the Rhees disappeared with the house.

(Avengers Assemble I#20) – Naked and giant-size, Denny panicked when an Avengers Quinjet drew close and he punched it out of the air. Wonder Man flew up to Dennis and helped him calm down and explain what happened. Scarlet Witch and the Wasp managed to restore Alice, as well as Soo Jin and Hanna, to normal size, which returned Dennis back to his normal self as well. As they surveyed the wreckage of their house, Alice talked about how she might use her powers and they joked about code-names for her.
