Good but not great. Basically a reboot kind of like the recent Moon Knight. Bunches of little missions for hire kind of like Elektra but to fund kind of a Black Widow's Victim fund. Not bad art, not bad writing - just not as good as I would have liked. And a bit too repetitive. 3.5 of 5.
Marvel, just make a movie already.
The art for this comic is very well done and has an original feel to it that keeps things interesting. The storyline is consistent with the character and it's interesting to read from her POV. That said, I was a little underwhelmed and for Black Widow, this series is pretty tamed.

I want to start positive so right off the bat I have to say that the artwork in this is gorgeous. Some of the frames were so beautiful that I wish I had them up on my wall, especially in the very last part (Natasha's red hair against a white backdrop was great). The negative? I just had a hard time caring about anything that happened. I like the Black Widow all right but more in the movies than in the main comic book universe where the solo adventures of even a very skilled assassin feel less exciting than whatever She-Hulk or Captain Marvel or any of the X-Ladies are doing (the X-Ladies are probably in space because those mutants freaking love being in space). I'm also not that invested in Natasha's desire for atonement as though killing off scores of warlords will balance some invisible scales but that's more of a personal problem I have with heroes trying to atone instead of just trying to help. Is this worth picking up? If you like spy stories and don't care that she doesn't interact with any other superheroes, then sure. It's beautiful and that's worth a look at least.

3.5– GORGEOUS artwork but the writing could be better tbh
Yeah so I wasn’t a huge fan of this at all. Natasha is back again, this time she’s more boring than ever…I was really expecting this to be more of a spy thriller from the description, but it was just Natasha complaining for 6 issues (which is very ooc imo). Natasha has virtually no personality in here whatsoever…and she’s really bad at espionage for some reason. She literally fucks up the job she’s been groomed to do since she was a baby every issue. And her and Maria’s “friendship” is also highly ooc, bc these two have literally tried to kill each other using Morse code before
My first Marvel Comic!!
I decided to start with Black Widow since she's my current fave and you can never have enough of badass women in your life!
And let me say it was a good choice! After reading this one I just want the Black Widow movie more than I did before!
I adooooored the art in this, it's so nice to read because the art is so beautiful and the story is really interesting, you're hooked after the very first pages.
