II : YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD CAT LADY
September 2025

"are these Vampires you know...hot!?!"

Black Cat has an attempt at going legit...fighting crime..

very stylish....love the dry humour and some weird/wonderful expressions on Felicia's face.

I just love when the girls are doing fun and cool things. I also really like the first-person narration Wilson employs here. I feel like a good friend of mine is catching me up on what they've been up to lately. I also got a great laugh out of Baron Alexander having a fit about his "American travel accommodations" and Black Cat and Daredevil flirting in the middle of the scuffle.

I hate to give this a three star but it really is enjoyable and i do plan to see it to the end but it just isn't particularly for me. The art is nice, very nice and the story is fine as well. No complaints but there isn't anything in particular that stands out as amazing or crazy good, it's again a nice, chill read.

Super fun! Gleb Melnikov’s art is wonderfully fitting, and G Willow Wilson is writing is probably my new favorite version of the character. Black Cat trying to be a superhero and ending up the ultimate Marvel failgirl, dethroning the previous queen who also has the word cat in her codename, Patsy Walker. I’m glad I’m jumping on to this series a bit late so I can binge it.

“Theft on a small scale is a crime. Theft on a large scale is just economics.”

felicia taking credit for that bust as if her old situationship matt ain’t pulled up to the scene to assist 😭

It's okay. I miss her and her team actually making plans though. yes she had her luck, but I feel like she usually thinks more. The social commentary is all right.

There are a lot of bad covers in comicsdom, but this might be the ugliest cover on a good Marvel book in recent memory.

Black Cat goes against mafia.

Another 3.5 star

Willow has a great voice for Felicia. Really enjoying this title.

those mafia guys have the same last name as someone i knew in high school and it’s making me vaguely uncomfortable

I like this one more than the last one but it was still kinda just ok. Love Felicia tho.
