I liked the name Marigold better

Nice to see the issue getting a second printing, so the series seems to go down well. But as this is still Black Widow we are talking about Marvel will somehow find a way to mess it up again.

Feels kinda anime...and electricity powers?

I was thinking Borderlands personally.

She looks like she'd fit in a Battle Royale game.

A Winter Guard mini series with Yelena and Alexei is coming in August. https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/exclus...c-winter-guard

Together with hints made by David Harbour on his instagram a couple of days ago this could mean that the Winter Guard will feature in the Black Widow movie.

Yaaaaassssss. I literally tweeted yesterday morning that the Winter Guard needed a mini yesterday morning, and a few hours later the mini was announced.

Hasn't Alexei always been a bad guy?? Now they are trying to redeem him?

Movie synergy I guess. That path was already paved in Natasha's series when he switched sides at the last moment.

That said, didn't he make a heroic sacrifice in his first ever story arc? I think he saved Captain America's life or something, so a redemption arc is something of a tradition for him.

I'm kind of curious how they'll fit the Winter Guard in the MCU. I was thinking to myself it would make sense for world powers to want their own Avengers equivalent.

Also curious to see how the writers go about depicting Russian Superheroes considering all the Russian political controversy. I guess we have Alexei and Yelena who want to redeem Russia while the Winter Guard are the hardline loyalists, if still moral.

I'm kind of wondering if this is before or after Yelena and Natasha's current partnership.

Was Natasha the only one to get the Red Room's super soldier juice...or did Yelena and others get it?

I've never been a huge Natasha fan and I've tried her solos before (they've not been for me) but this current series is blowing me away. These actions scenes and fights just give me a thrill and I love the artwork. I'm genuinely shocked it's so good. Here's hoping it continues.

Thompson’s been killing it with this book, and her Captain Marvel run. I hope she gets a third book soon.

The implication in the Black Widow: Homecoming series was that all of the Widows of Natasha's generation got it, but the younger ones (Yelena included) didn't.

I'm expecting them to make a joke about how Americanized Natasha is .
