fuckyeahcaptainamerica asked: I envy your ability to analyze comic panels and pick out every little detail. Your posts are quite amazing.

Anonymous asked: There's an Avengers team with Natasha as the leader, who are the rest of the members and why them?

Anonymous asked: What are your favorite Black Widow writers? Your least favorite? And writers who have never written a Black Widow story but you would so read one from them.

Review: Captain America and Bucky #624

Soviet Guy: Natasha is not yours. She belongs to Red Guardian. Winter Soldier: You think she belongs to anyone? Then you are as foolish as the others. I never know how to begin these write-up posts, so let’s just roll the solicit text. “The final chapter in Cap and Bucky’s first arc is here, completing the retelling of Bucky’s early days with a heartbreaking tale of...

fulltimecosmicprince asked: I really love this blog. I love how absolutely you understand the character and how you can analyze and defend her every action. I think its so admirable and I would love for you to do more analysis of her civilian clothing, because I think you're great at that!

From today's Axel-in-Charge interview:

Black Widow came up twice, once in questions, and once in the answers. There’s a lot of unease among fans about what Marvel’s line restructuring means for characters that aren’t white dudes. “Hey, Axel. There have been many new female characters in recent years that are male character spin-offs. For example: Black Panther, Red She-Hulk, Ghost Rider, X-23, numerous...

Doing it Wrong: Greg Land

I realize I talk mostly about writers and story things, and that’s a disservice to comics criticsm because art is at least one-half of the story, probably more. It’s one of my greatest self-diagnosed flaws as bringer of the teal deer, how I regularly fail to discuss panel layouts and framing choices when I talk about what comics mean. So today I will tell you exactly why Greg Land...

dangerousdeadlydames asked: Do you like the clothes that Butch Guice draws on Natasha? Other than Daniel Acuña he's one of the few artists that get to draw her on civil clothes.

Spy vs Superhero

Fury: Thing of it is, Daredevil, blondie sees things like you do… she thinks she’s a super hero… but Natasha, she’s the Black Widow. She’s the real deal. She knows espionage is a nasty business. So here’s the question, that turns and keeps turning whenever discussion tries to define Natasha: is she a super hero, or is she a spy? The answer has swung to all sides of...

“It’s true, she doesn’t have powers, yet she holds her own against...”

– Marjorie Liu

itsviictor asked: I haven't seen any mention of the Ultimate Black Widow(s), is there any reason for this? And do you think Marvel will go the Ultimates route with the movie (Tony/Natasha, her involvement with Hawkeye's family, and then Fury's ex-wife becoming the next Black Widow)?

What are some Marvel Women titles you'd like to...

kira-face: marvelwomenkickingass: You know, since they need to fucking add some. They can be all new titles or titles you’d like to see brought back. I’d still love a Ms. Marvel/Spider-Woman team-up. I’d be interested in a Tigra book. Someone last night suggested a CSI detective book starring Carlie Cooper. I really like that idea. I really think a Marvel Women Presents kind of thing could...

At MARVEL, It's Reigning Men

latkje: So there’s an article at Newsarama up about the cancellation of X-23 that’s worth reading. Needless to say, I agree with the spirit, but there’s a ton of random Black Widow bashing thrown in?? Like: Why isn’t Marvel making a bigger push so their female characters become famous? Black Widow was an obvious choice for The Avengers because she co-starred in Iron Man 2 but does anyone...

Anonymous asked: About Bucky and the circus and soldiers, weeeeell. I don't know if the circus bit was ever true (can't say I have heard it before. *Clint* however, was, yes) But the latest canon is that Bucky is that his soldier dad, who he lived with, died when he was 12, leaving him orphan and instead of being shipped out to an orphanage, he managed to talk the officials into letting him stay as a...

I contributed to a write-up on FemPop about the unproduced David Hayter script. Internet notoriety +1!!
