Hot Toys has announced a limited edition Black Widow based off the hugely popular Avengers Movie, and boy does she look good. Take the jump for a better look.
Or – “I Really Dislike The Term ‘Starktech.’ “

For a while, while Bendis was writing Avengers (or perhaps Dark Avengers), the storyline included technology created by Tony Stark, Victor Von Doom and (I believe) Justin Hammer, colloquially known as “Starktech,” “Doomtech,” and “Hammertech.” You’d think that in a world where EVERYONE is a multi-disciplinary sooper-geeeenius, that they’d have some more creative names. What does this have to do with our Major Spoilers review of Black Widow’s story bridging her two movie experiences? I don’t know. But we’re OFF!

A night or so ago, I was watching late-night cable and happened upon the David Arquette giant monster vehicle, “Eight-Legged Freaks.” I was a bit startled to see Scarlett Johansson as a seventeen-year-old, playing Kari Wuhrer’s daughter (briliant bit of casting, I might add.) For some reason, my mind wanted to believe that Scarlett’s first movie was Ghost World, but checking her history, it seems that she has been working in films since 1995′s ‘North.’ That movie was pretty much awful, but thinking about it started a train of thought in my head…

Hot Toys posted this teaser image for an upcoming Black Widow figure, that I think will be a best seller. I think you can figure out why.

Or – “Featuring Gates McFadden As The Black Widow!”

I’m gonna be honest: After Fear Itself #7.1, I wasn’t entirely sure that I wanted to follow this series, even though I had been excited about it in the beginning. My trust in Ed Brubaker overcame my dislike of awkward retcons, and I found enough potential in #1 to come back this time around. So, what if there weren’t only one?
