Bolstered by Flavianos art, Jen and Sylvia Soska have sculpted a neat, little corner of the Marvel Universe that would be great fun to dive into again. Just as the story feels like its wrapping up, theres the full realization that the story is ending. Theres a kind of satisfaction in that, but theres a strong desire for more with Jen, Sylvia, Flaviano, and the badass red-headed Russian super-spy. With any luck, the Soskas will return to another mini-series at some point soon. Read Full Review

Overall, the Black Widow mini-series, headed by the Soska Sisters, was another one of the Marvel mini-series of late that has really really impressed me, while also introducing me better to characters I don't know all that well. There's something with the shorter form stories, that the publisher is putting out that have really grabbed my attention, what with their tight pacing, and entertainingly told messages of a wide variety. Coupled with strong art throughout the entirety of the book, the Black Widow concludes in fantastic fashion, with the combination of violence, action, and a whole bunch of heart you've come to expect from this title. This is something I highly recommend. Read Full Review

BLACK WIDOW #5 may miss a few beats, but the consistency and characterization of our titular character come together to serve a satisfying conclusion. Read Full Review

I didn't know what to expect going into this series. Having come out the other side, I'm thoroughly impressed, not just with the writing and art, but with the lettering by Joe Caramagna, which does so much to elevate the fight scenes and drive home the dialogue. Read Full Review

It's VERY dark and wears its movie influences on it's sleeve, but all in all, this is a good final chapter. Read Full Review

Jen and Sylvia Soska have demonstrated an understanding of the Black Widow's character that makes it easy to wish they had more than these five issues to work with " even just one more to better serve said scene and expand it into its own distinct issue " to see where else they'd take her and to see them get even more used to working in the medium.

While busy, it juggles each loose plot tie easily and answers questions fans didn't even know they had. So, if you're looking to dive into an ease Black Widow web, this run is the one for you. Read Full Review

This final chapter ties a pretty nice bow on the series. Things got mighty muddled in the middle, though; I think this tale should be filed under "for Widow completionists only."

Satisfactory.
