Will the Widow and Punisher clash when they collide?

 

Friend From Foe story kicks off in Black Widow #9.

 

“Frank and Natasha are a really interesting pair to combine together: on the one hand, they seem to exist in the same kind of heroic/antiheroic space in the Marvel Universe, but at some point the similarities stop and the disparity begins, and the tug and pull between those two ends will be at play here,” Edmondson told Marvel.com.
