Can the most lethal Avenger survive the wrath of the Hand of God?

 

This new villain from Russia rises to strike down Natasha in Black Widow #4 this week.

 

If you haven’t check out Natasha’s solo series by Nathan Edmonson and Phil Noto yet then here’s what you need to know:

Natasha is working with a handler (who may be betraying her) to take on deadly missions to make up for her past as an assassin.

 

This is Black Widow using her best skills as a super spy and expert killer taking on the Marvel underworld on a path of redemption.

 

This week Edmondson and Noto unleash a new villain against Natasha. From the streets of Russia, the Hand of God has an global terrorist plot and he’ll be a brutal new foe. How will this new bad guy be connected to Natasha’s bloody past in Russia?

 

(On a personal note Black Widow is my favorite new series of the All-New Marvel Now initiative)

It’s a huge week for Natasha fans as she also stars in a brand new Secret Avengers #1 by Ales Kot and Michael Walsh.

 

Black Widow, Spider-Woman, Hawkeye, Nick Fury, Phil Coulson, Maria Hill and are a covert squad to Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and top S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives with M.O.D.O.K.

 

The new series kicks off with three missions, Russian spas, crashing satellites, crazed killers and a space station all factor into the first big issue.

 

Secret Avengers #1 and Black Widow #4 arrive Wednesday.
