Black Widow, along with her sidekick "sister" Ana (whom she met in Black Widow: Forever Red), returns to protect S.H.I.E.L.D. while battling the evil Red Room and the mind-control drug it has created. There is plenty of action, seemingly to get readers quickly to the next installment. Marvel superfans may be irked by deviations from the Marvel universe; casual readers should be entertained.
