Black Cat Appreciation 2018

[Docz]

Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean any offense to Robbie Thompson, I've heard mostly positives about his portrayal of Silk and I find the art incredibly endearing. I'd honestly probably have this on my pulls list or at least nabbed a few issues if it weren't for the current mandate on Felicia sucking a lot of the fun out of these books for me.

FYI Felicia-fans, if you want to read a well written Black Cat, read Secret Wars House of M where she's not a terrible person.

It's a shame though that all there seems to be talked about here is how terribly she's being written. It can't be surprising though, I mean, does anyone like her current heel-turn?

I agree. She is pretty enjoyable in that book. I like seeing her be a hero. The last time we saw that was...oh idk that last Defenders book?

It really is ridiculous how Marvel is mandating this villain status. No fans like it at all and there still is no logical explanation behind it. Spiderman writers really don't care what fans think it would appear, with them never redoing the universally panned OMD and now this.

In looking at the positive side of things for Felicia at the moment, however little there is, at least her new costume isn't bad. Which in a world where costume redesigns and new costumes fairly often prove divisive, is nice to have .

Unless someone disagrees of course...

Dan Slott should seriously consider using Tigra in place of The Black Cat and Police Captain Yuri Watanabe because she encompass The Cat side of her super heroine crime fighting character as well as her civilian role as a member of the NYPD. In addition, Greer has not become a corrupt Police Officer; not is she a crime boss. And she was Spider-Man's first female crime fighting partners long before The Black Cat appeared. But the one advantage that Greer has is that she's one of the few Police Officers whose a close friend of Peter Parker.

You'll have to bring it up with Thompson. While Evil!Cat will be menacing as many ANAD titles as the editors can work with, as Silk's boss she's pretty much operating her chaos empire from Cindy's book.

at least black cat will have a book to star in Post Secret Wars....I'm still waiting for word on where Morbius the living vampire is and why marvel suddenly forgot Brownsville was a place

still though i can see why people hate her heel turn...but complaining about it won't change a thing we know that....so best thing to do is ignore it

[The_Greatest_Username]

It's hard to ignore it when she's appearing so frequently and in such terrible circumstances that only serve to reinforce this awful new status quo.

Perhaps Evil Black Cat is an extension of Dr. Octopus.

I like how it's drawn in the Silk book I admit.

I've never read Silk but several people have said it's pretty good and some even claim way better than spider-gwen which is what i was reading instead of it

I think Silk and Gwen's books are very different and shouldn't be compared. What I like about the Silk series is the artwork and the way the writer is making her a likable and relatable character unlike how Bendis wrote her when he introduced her.

It may be very well possible Doc. Oc is possessing Cat. That would be an interesting explanation.

Don't you mean Slott?

[Chrysalis_Changling]

uh it was dan slott that introduced her in amazing spider-man not bendis just a FYI

Why they tease me with heroic spider-powered Black Cat in Spiderman Unlimited while this Editorial pet villain sue haunts the comics?! MEANIES!!!

I hope she remains heroic in Marvel Avengers Alliance too.

Those two series likely aren't getting as much attention as the mainstream books, hence why they're not portraying her as evil.
