For my first Black Widow story, I rather liked this one. It pulls her out of the super hero world and shifts it over to more of a spy one. She still works to do good, but it is less out in the open and she gets to be more selective about her work. There is a lot more action in this book than I was expecting though. For someone who works from the shadows, she gets into the thick of things quite a bit.
I feel like this book makes the character more approachable. She still has an edge of mystery around her. The creators just work subtly to show her as a more rounded person. Black Widow is actively trying to atone for actions from her past. There are a few appearances from other Marvel characters. I think this worked better that there wasn't a bigger presence by some of these other characters because it would have taken away from Natasha's story.
The art is good. There weren't any confusing images, which is always a plus. It can get a little over the top in the latter half of the book because of the characters involved. I enjoyed my first Black Widow book and will probably continue reading this series.

Artwork is a 4. Writing is a 3. I read graphic novels/comics for the stories, not the pretty pictures, so the 3 is sticking. Thank god they didn't use the variant covers.
Absolutely beautiful art, but both the story as a whole and Nat's characterisation felt chilly and strangely muted. I haven't read enough Black Widow comics to know if this is how she's typically written, but I found myself wishing she'd been given another more vital character to bounce off (other than Maria Hill, who in this version of herself also doesn't give much away.)
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Loveable characters:
Yes
Loved the story, loved the characters, loved the art.
I read this as single issues. It's great! I love Natasha's relationship with Liho (OBV) and Isaiah, and just all of her attempts to atone.

Phil Noto hatırına üç yıldız. Onun dışında, hiç de ince dokunamamış zorlama bir hikâye.
One of the better Black Widow comics I've read. She actually seems human throughout most of the story. The cat was also a nice touch. I am excited to see what the rest of the series will offer.
