This week we start off our little tribute the blockbuster Avengers movie by reading “Marvel Knights: Black Widow” by Devin Grayson and Greg Rucka. What starts out as a Russian superintelligence agency’s attempt to replace Natasha Romanoff turns into a mind rape re-enactment of Nicholas Cage’s FACE/OFF. Yeah, it gets weird.

We mull over the book’s confrontations with drugs and race as well as Spiderman’s quick descension into blind rage and emptiness.
