One of my most anticipated All-New Marvel Now books is Black Widow by writer Nathan Edmonson and artist Phil Noto.

 

The new series explores the dark past of the fan-favorite Avenger and super spy. I want to share part of Edmondson’s new Marvel.com interview giving insight on the Natasha’s new solo series.

 

“About all I can tell you is that the shadows in her past are dark and deep and they are reaching out for her. We will learn some things about them eventually, but keep in mind she’s a master spy: her secrets stay in the dark. When the book opens, though, we’ll be plenty busy with her present and all the action that entails,” Edmondson teases. Continue reading BLACK WIDOW Solo Preview
