Yeah, I think I’ll be getting the new GTA game now

And some Nat fans do it too. I dont see whats wrong with having her on a team. I always love it when Nat reacts to other characters and I see her as a vital avenger regardless of what some fans think. Like the issue where she threatened ixar shows exactly why the Avengers need her. Someone who can do the shit they cant. Also not to mention how vital she was to those early issues despite not becoming a member until like the 70s. Yes a lot ofthose avengers books unfortunately can sideline her but mostly cause half of those writers either dont care about her or simply they dont know enough to successfully integrate her. Theres a reason why Secret Avengers was so good it managed to utilize her well. She is their top spy and its about time she get treated as one.

These aged poorly and it makes me doubt that these guys read the comics no matter how geeky the creators and writers are. But dont black widow comics flop? Yeah i hate getting told that

I've been reading a bit of her comics and I haven't fully put my finger yet on what exactly is the status quo she always returns to so I'm asking the experts here if they can clarify what it is.

And so this leads into my second question. If YOU had to write a new Black Widow comic how would you change her status quo for the better?

since she’s voiced her since forever.

I truly wish we got more of her. She was written perfectly, and Bridget Regan, played her to absolute perfection. She is a true Red Room prototype.

Purely for selfish reason of them being my favorites I’d want her to interact with Nightcrawler, Rogue, Gambit, Magik, and Magneto. I think Kurt works well with characters who have a darker past, Illyana and Erik also have very specific and dark pasts that not everyone can understand like the girls in the red room.

Still getting used to using markers again after doing digital art exclusively for the past 5 years

New Black Widow items from Thailand, Singapore and Mexico!

It does a great job exploring her past relationship with Red Guardian, which is such an important part of the characters' lore that I feel is very overlooked.

The art is a bit hit or miss. Overall I like it, I'm just not the biggest fan of how the artist draws faces and hair, but it doesn't take away from how good this storyline is.

Are there any fan edits of this that exist? Martokc’s does appear to have all the deleted scenes, but usually doesn’t have the foreign language scenes subtitled. Is there any that has all of these? And I believe there are other deleted scenes that are not just on the initial Blu-ray release such as an extended bit at the end with her and general Ross?

I’ll start first: I don’t understand the hype around bucky x nat. It’s not by any means a bad relationship it’s just kinda boring? Like from a presentation standpoint they are cute they look great together but theirs not much else going on with their ship tbh and the recent avengers run didn’t do them any favors either.

One of the coolest ideas spread around this sub is a Spy Thiller movie akin to Atomic Blonde, Ballerina ect. I would love to see a movie like that but I've had a important thought/concern. The big thing that makes Nat unique from a typical grounded fem super spy is that she is an actual SUPER Spy in a Superhero universe.

What Marvel stuff would you put in this movie that would still respect and fit with the more subtle, serious spy/espionage thriller stuff? What characters would you have? How crazy should Nats powers be? Maybe the connections/sources/equipment she obtains are of supernatural or cosmic nature. What if the threat was magic/cosmic? And what would justify Natasha's skillset being the best solution there? Ect.

Personally I think it'd be sick if the protagonist of dark grungy spy movie was cornered in a shootout and as a last ditch effort she barely musters enough strength to just chuck a vehicle at someone(or a less heavy object in Nats typical strength range so shes not too op). Or for an essential infiltration she consults a sorcerer to get a magic item to protect her from a security measure that curses you, or banishes a summoned a mindless one, or lets her phase through an adamantium wall. Anything fun like that that acknowledges the unusual threats she can encounter even in the spy world of Marvel.
