BLACK WIDOW: WIDOW’S STING #1, available this Wednesday from Marvel Comics, with the Black Widow movie looming on the horizon (a distant one, admittedly), it’s time for a reminder of the Black Widow’s past, and just what she’s capable of.
Natasha Romanoff is a long-standing favorite in the world of Marvel, one with a rich and complex past. That much is not, and has never been, a secret. Yet sometimes it’s good to be reminded of what she is capable of. As well as why she is so cherished as a spy.
Black Widow: Widow’s Sting #1 is a blast from the past. As Natasha is off on yet another mission from S.H.I.E.L.D. This time with the intent of taking down an infamous crime boss, Silvermane.
This tale is set back before Black Widow made herself known as an Avenger. Back when she was still heavily involved in deep cover cases for S.H.I.E.L.D. – she was the best of them, even back then.

Ugh, this is what happens when we let men write Black Widow. We get a Natasha Romanoff who is not clever or seemingly good at her job and who feels the need to state everything that's obvious. I wish I could say there's one good fight scene or clever line, but there isn't. Definitely not recommended!
