Who do you like more: Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel or Natasha Romanova aka Black Widow?

[RLAAMJR.]

Just wondering...

[somacula]

Apples and oranges in my opinion
But I like Widow more

[MadFacedKid]

I like both, but Carol more. Natasha is that character that's fun and exciting to see but that I only ever actively follow her when she happens to appear in a title outside her own. Carol is that character that I actively try to follow up on no matter where she appears.

Does it need to be a competition?

I'm slightly more invested in Black Widow stories, but I think both are compelling characters with some good stories and interesting histories; both were at the forefront of Marvel's first push for female heroes.

Both of them also suffer when their character is flattened or oversimplified in certain team books or events.

Black Widow.

More interesting power set, staying more true to her history.

Ever since the Binary persona(now her "powered up" persona in Ultimates), Colonel Danvers has had too wildly fluctuating power levels, sometimes making her uber powered and too far out(almost Sentry power). Too Blue Marvel/Super Man for me.

[Valamist]

Both are fantastic characters in their own right. Natasha has a great history and style, I love arc of redemption and trying to balance the good of now with the bad of the past. However, if I had to pick it would be Carol for sure. I love her personality, her strength and what she is willing to sacrifice. I really hope CWII dose not blind people to her positive aspects.

Black Widow by Far. She has a great backstory and has better relationships with Characters in the Marvel U at large because of that Black Widow has unlimited story potential. Marvel just never seems to find a permanent role for Carol. DeConnick did a decent job but the damage done to Carol's character in the first Civil War really hurt her in my opinion. Civil War II isn't really helping Carol either.

[Tony Stark]

Carol for me. She is my all time favorite female character.

[Michael Watkins]

I can't relate to Natasha. I don't think I'd be able to hang out with her, either. I'm voting Carol. she's not very intimidating.

[Witchfan]

Who do you prefer, Black Widow or Spiderwoman? I like Black Widow better.

[berserkerclaw]

Black widow hands down. But i like Carol as well

[Vworp Vworp]

Go back a few years and this would have been a tough choice. But Carol's become less a character and more a gimmick since 2012, so it's Tasha by a country mile.

[RLAAMJR.]

The movie Black Widow inclined me to choose Black Widow over Carol.

[Beaubier]

Comics: Widow.

I don't like movie Widow though so I'm hoping Carol outshines her in the movies.
