REVIEW: Marvel’s White Widow #1

Marvel presents Yelena Belova’s first-ever solo series in White Widow #1, the fan-favorite anti-hero debuting in her own long-overdue comic, having played key roles in New Avengers, Secret Avengers, Winter Guard, and multiple volumes of Natasha Romanov’s story in Black Widow. Last featured in the dramatic conclusion of Kelly Thompson’s incredibly popular Black Widow (2020) run, Belova cemented herself as one of Romanov’s most central allies and played an important role in the climax of the series. Since then, she has been conspicuously absent from print, returning with characteristic aplomb to finally have a chapter of her own story told, with her as the undisputed focal point.White Widow #1 is written by Sarah Gailey, a Hugo award-winning novelist who has also been nominated for the Nebula Award. Gailey has been making their forays into the comic book world over the past few years, writing numerous comics for BOOM! Studios, starting with the Steven Universe spin-off series, and eventually taking the helm of the flagship 2022 Buffy revival, The Vampire Slayer. Gailey’s creator-owned projects, Eat the Rich (2021) and Know Your Station (2022), both also published by BOOM!, have been met with massive acclaim in the indie scene. Gailey continues to push into the mainstream, penning the Black Cat short story in this year’s annual Marvel Voices: Pride, but White Widow #1 is their debut writing an ongoing miniseries for an established comic book character.White Widow #1 begins with a recent flashback into Belova’s past, carrying out an elaborate assassination with the help of her murder-mentee Marthe. Their plans are foiled by none other than Steve Rogers, giving Belova the inspiration to change her life into something new, defined by nobody but herself. In the present day, out in the small town of Idylhaven, Belova cultivates a quiet life in an apartment complex – but her past is colliding with the future, and the peace cannot last.
