A happy new year to all Natasha fans!

Here's the new thread for our favorite assassin slash spy slash superhero, as a mutual spider-themed hero would put it.

When I saw the thread title earlier my mind was apparently so used to reading Romanov that I read it that way again and I thought: Damn, somebody is gonna be livid.
It was only when I read the name of the OP that I realized I just can't read.
I'm gonna blame being hungover still

That looks so cool but I do hope the guy has more to him than "being able to beat Natasha in a fight".

Love the current series - but am still miffed that the original BW died in Secret Empire #7 and was replaced by a clone in TofS #103 … and this is just sort of quietly accepted or forgotten.

Gathering this is unlike the Clone Conspiracy or Krakoa and the clone is really a separate being (recall the Ben Reilly outrage 25 years ago).

Similarly it is weird that the White Widow currently wandering through the 616 is also a clone of the deceased original Yelena.

Hoping this can be resolved before too long.

It's easy, just act as if Secret Empire never happened. Has the additional benefit of forgetting about a trash event that isn't worth remembering anyway.

The current one is the original BW. There's nothing to be resolved imo. After all almost no major hero is still the original given how many times they died and came back in no less convoluted ways.

I'd rather not forget secret empire seeing as it was my favourite event in forever but I agree that what followed was really just a way to get Nat back and whether that's cloning, time travel or magic it doesn't really matter.
