Miss Black Widow (Scarlet Johannson) from Marvel’s The Avengers already? Can’t wait for the return of Daniel Craig as James Bond in Skyfall? Join the gritty spy adventure of Winter Soldier.
The Captain America sidekick spent years as a brainwashed assassin for the KGB as The Winter Soldier. The first arc was action packed as Bucky Barnes and Black Widow raced across the Marvel underworld chasing thawed out super assassins and teamed up with Doctor Doom. These sexy superspies are damaged souls. This latest chapter keeps a tight pace but still reveals what’s under the surface and driving Bucky and Natasha’s drive for redemption.
Ed Brubaker teams up with his acclaimed Daredevil artist Michael Lark for the second arc: Broken Arrow. Bucky and Natasha are on the trail of a killer trained by Bucky. This hunt gets personal when the killer kidnaps a scientist tied to Black Widow’s tragic past. On the big screen Natasha is an Avenger hoping to erase the red. In this latest chapter you see how she earned her Black Widow name. The action in issue #7 never lets up until the shocker ending.
If you want a super hero comic with a dark spy tone then accept the mission: read Winter Soldier!
