THE BLACK WIDOW WRAPS HER WEB AROUND THE GOLDEN GATE! Natasha Romanoff has just been through the most emotional adventure of her long life, and the experience has left her looking to do things a bit differently. Allies new and old will come to her aid for this bold new mission best described as...San Francisco now belongs to THE BLACK WIDOW.
KELLY THOMPSON has a degree in Sequential Art from The Savannah College of Art & Design. Her love of comics and superheroes have compelled her since she first discovered them as a teenager. Currently living in Portland, Oregon with her boyfriend and the two brilliant cats that run their lives, you can find Kelly all over the Internet where she is generally well liked, except where she's detested.
Kelly has published two novels - THE GIRL WHO WOULD BE KING (2012) and STORYKILLER (2014) and the graphic novel HEART IN A BOX from Dark Horse Comics (2015). She's currently writing ROGUE & GAMBIT, HAWKEYE, and PHASMA for Marvel Comics and GHOSTBUSTERS for IDW. Other major credits include: A-Force, Captain Marvel & The Carol Corps, Jem and The Holograms, Misfits, Power Rangers Pink, and the creator-owned mini-series Mega Princess.
Kelly's ambitions are eclipsed only by her desire to exist entirely in pajamas. Fortunately pajamas and writers go hand in hand (most of the time). Please buy all her stuff so that she can buy (and wear) more pajamas.
Last issue came out in Feb. I had almost forgotten I was collecting this series. Love the stories and the Black Widow. Hope this goes beyond six issues. This is the world that the Black Widow needs to operate in, not the outer reaches of space. That is why is a perfect match for Daredevil and Hell's Kitchen.
I really like the start of this new act, still very in sync with what Nat went through in the first 5 issues. Also we always love when Black Widow displays her excellent skill set feat. White Widow.
L'inizio di una nuova vita per Natasha, che cerca di lasciarsi alle spalle le ferite dell'attacco subito nel primo arco di storie.
Le Vedove sembrano intenzionate a diventare una sorta di gruppo di vigilanti cittadine per occuparsi di una città che non dovrebbe avere già eroi di quartiere: abbiamo scontri in successione e una possibile nuova recluta. Sarà interessante vedere che direzione si vuole dare alla serie.
The start of the second arc in Kelly Thompson's Black Widow run. I fell off reading it after the end of the first arc for a bit, but have been meaning to pick it back up. Very glad that I did. This is a basic start, but held such promising action sequences it certainly drew me in.
Unlike the iconic Ellis/Shalvey Moon Knight issue Black Widow manages to make it to the penthouse without killing anyone - but man, what a hell of a splash page. Love the relationship between Yelena and Nat and how naturally it's written.
Marvel’s BLACK WIDOW #6, available now, is about to throw the brokenhearted super-spy back into the thick of things as she works to build a new life for herself. Or rather, a new cover. A balance must be found, and she has an ally willing to help.
Last we saw, Natasha Romanoff had been through hell and back. Not literally (that’s Hellcat’s territory), but it certainly feels that way. Natasha had a family – a wonderful husband and a beautiful baby boy, but only for just a brief moment.
That’s all gone now. She had to send them away for their own safety. She is Black Widow, after all. And that means that they could never be safe, not while still being in her life. While it is for the best, the decision still hurts.
That is where Black Widow #6 picks up – with Black Widow setting new roots in San Francisco, with the help of the one and only Yelena Belova. Okay, she might end up bringing more complications with her, but sometimes it’s good to have friends around, no matter what sort of mess they bring with them.
Nice concept for the cover but it's executed so poorly they have made her flat stomach and gave her triple d boobs like what the f***
"Alone again Natasha invited Yelena belova beloved to stay and help her build something new. Now that widows set out to remake themselves yet again in the heart of San Francisco."
I like the Polaroid "widows part 1 of 1"
GOD HER HUMOR KSJSKSJ
"That was a mistake We'll see"
"Stitches popped. I'm going to have to fix this fast." Dude her pain tolerance is unreal
the litol duck ma babieeee
"When do you believe the life I've lived you learn to spot a shark in the water fast. Even a baby shark still learning what it can do. She's moving too fast. She thinks that's helping her but it's only drawing attention. Amateur. Raw talent, but a lot to learn. nice try, but no. Ugh I wore the wrong shoes for this nonsense. She's even faster than I thought. Anyone who can make me ditch my shoes is worth chasing. You're fast. Maybe you're just slow. I can tell you for a fact that's not true."
Ah the "well that's a lie" panelllll she looks so pretty, and has an almost mother like tone when talking to this girl... Does she see herself when she was young maybe?? Ma babieeee
YELEEEENA oh she looks amazing here
"You dropped these Thanks. And you also lost your shoes. I know where they are I should hope so
this girl can actually get out of here I see at least three exit strategies that don't include rushing us. curious to see if she'll go for it... and here it comes. Interesting."
"I'm not sure yet. Same to me like it was reporting to someone else. Seemed like she might need help. And she's talented she has some moves yes? Don't even think about it. What what am I thinking? Recruitment. Well what if I am? You are the black widow and I am the White widow together we are formidable but your plans are ambitious Natalia. we might need some young talent. No absolutely not. We will not be building our own red Room but our own not red Room perhaps." Not gonna lie Natasha constructing a non torturing red room would slap
"Bit of both , if I'm honest. But neither with you, I'm afraid."
THE FIGHTING POOOOSE
"Feels like it's twisted Island of misfit toys. Almost makes me like them. But again. But almost is a killer."
NAT FIGHTING IN THE RED SMOKE OH MY
"It's actually not gas just smoke. Gives me some room to move. And it's also fun to see them scramble. Now let's get started in earnest. Swords, cool. I like swords too."
"Nice when things work out so efficiently. And then there was one."
"Next: I am the black widow" NOW THAT'S PROMISING AF
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Pretty standard action marvel comic issue. not my favorite but it was pretty good for the most part. I did feel the possibility of black widow adding some recruit just seemed a bit arbitrary considering she didn’t what to replicate the red room from her past.
I spent most of this issue convinced I had missed something. But no, just a confusing narrative structure for this one. Might up it when I read the next issue and it (hopefully) makes more sense.
The video game narration was fun. Yelena is always a treat. The coloring was especially cool in this issue. The figures and faces were good but the action continuity was a bit spotty.
1. An opening scene of Natasha just demolishing some bad guy's lackey? Ah yes, this is my song!
2. Aw... Natasha noticing and wanting to mentor little baby thieves. I love it!
3. I get the sense that Natasha and Yelena have been having this argument about recruitment and restarting the Red Room in some form. It's the kind of quiet, tense argument you can only have with your sister about a topic you're tired of taking about. Also, I like seeing the differences between the sisters and how they approach the world.
4. Honestly, I sort of live for Natasha drop kicking men out of buildings.
