All the elements of this series never really came together in my opinion. There were a lot of interesting plot lines and I liked how we explored Natasha's past throughout the series. However, the end of this felt rushed and disorganized. Overall, a very interesting set of comics, but it wasn't my favorite.

My biggest problem with this whole thing: Maria Hill would never say "I need you back, Natasha. I'm man enough to admit it." (Come on. Seriously?)
I have really mixed feelings about this one. I really liked the flashbacks in issues 16, 19, and 20, but the rest were just...meh.

This volume was just as good as the second, although I was hoping it'd be much better, but I'm not complaining. I wasn't struggling as much with trying to understand the story line in this one which I'm quite grateful for, however the ending was either a bit anticlimactic, felt rushed, and/ or I understood a bit less than I thought I did. Altogether, I'm very pleased this was my very first Black Widow comic and won't be stopping with this one.

This run is amazing. The story is good but the art is better!

I'm really sad that this was the last volume of this run, I will miss this beautiful art so much! I have to say just in terms of story I didn't enjoy the first part of this volume to much... All these things going on with CHAOS were just a bit confusing... Like, why is Nat the only one who can stop them? The last two issues were just heartbreaking though, I loved to see a bit of Nats past when she was a child and also to see probably the thing she regrets the most. The story gets really dark. We really get to understand her a lot better in this and she is such a complex, interesting, strong character and we really get to see this here... She is kind of the hero and the villain at the same time and I thought it was really well done, I got really emotional. And once again, the art is simply BEAUTIFUL.

For the most part, I wasn't really impressed with this run. Natasha hemming and hawing about how alone she is and how no one understands her felt oddly childish. To the point where I felt a little embarrassed by it.
I know enough about Natasha's past to know that she did a lot of fucked up shit and feels the need to atone, but it always rang hollow.
Until this volume.
This had everything I wanted in the first two volumes of this run. The pain Natasha felt was palpable and beautiful written. The entire Cuba flashback was perfect and heartbreaking.
Noto's art was expressive and amazing, as always.
It kinda hurt to watch a possible future with Nat and a certain someone knowing the entire time during his run, he didn't think of her once and was heavily involved with someone else. Ouch.
Either way, this was a delightful close to an otherwise pretty bland run.

A worthy finish to Edmonson and Noto's run, this one incorporates the "Time Runs Out" crossover not only without letting it impact the story, but really using it to enrich the narrative they already had going. Natasha gets more depth, just when you thought that might be impossible. The ending feels a little disjointed and odd, and the transitions are a little jarring, but overall, this is a great Black Widow story.
