I am conflicted about this arc. I feel like it teeters on something interesting, but it feels really drawn out. Like reading this issue I was surprised when I reached the end and had a "that's it?" moment 'cause I feel like not a lot happened. I do appreciate that we're seeing a Natasha that knows she can trust people instead of the "burned all bridges, can't rely on anyone" schtick of previous solos, but it's lacking something. Urgency? Intrigue? I'm not sure. The art and colouring continues to be absolutely spectacular though, and I look forward to this book for how pretty it is if nothing else lol.
Hot damn that looks cool as hell.

It's kind of a problem I do have with a lot of the comics I read right now (granted it's not a huge list):
I enjoy one or two aspects quite a bit but it doesn't come together as a whole.
I still enjoy it a lot more than Nat's last actual ongoing but it feels like we are building up to something without really teasing what it might be.
With the last arc we had the intrigue of "oh what's going on" now there's little to talk about since we just have to wait and see.
There is however every possibility that this will be one of those arcs that just comes together neatly when read in one single sitting.

Sad to see Disney doing this if the allegations are true. I was really hoping that Black Widow would be a massive hit (tracking in early 2020 was predicting a massive box office near or at $1 billion) that would raise this character’s profile and perhaps lead to a series of interquel films set before Infinity War and/or Endgame. Now the movie has become another COVID casualty with the streaming drama overshadowing discussion of the actual film.
Disney's response to her "Yadda Yadda you so selfish, Yadda Yadda covid" almost makes them look worse than not letting the actors update their contract in the first place.
I do get people who are like "multi millionaire sues billion dollar company why should I care" but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if ScarJo was taking the bullet here for the other actors who may not want to anger big daddy Disney when they still have possible appearances on the horizon while she is very much done and if she gets through they'd have to do that for everyone.
Maybe I'm giving her too much credit idk.

Yeah, that was stupid.All those people and this is what they could come up with.
I really doubt any actor/actress specially one at her experience and point in career would do this for someone else.Isn't she loosing like a whole lot of money because of this.Others are too but I severely doubt she would sue if not for her loss, although this is something she could use for herself.
I do hope she wins but I don't care if she loses as well with her being a multi-millionare and stuff(also complaining and dragging the movie and by extent the franchise that made her who she is through the mud kinda rubbed of the wrong at least to me).
Hopefully this(streaming) doesn't affect future stars specially smaller ones.
A good angle to bring the Spider-readers over to Black Widow's camp. Cross promotion that has less to do with Spider-Man and more to do with Parker's inventions helping the Black Widow on her missions. Peter Parker becomes part of Nat's intelligence Team who develops equipment to help her out.
They're already trying to bring Spidey fans over to Nat's comic, lol. Anya Corazon, Spider-Girl, is on Natasha's team.

I mean y'all found your way here easily enough I don't see why that requires Spidey playing NPC in Nat's book.
