EXCLUSIVE: Black Widow #9 Marvel Preview

Things are getting awfully personal between Black Widow and Recluse, a rivalry that shows no signs of stopping soon.

In Black Widow #8, the stakes are raised when Recluse brings Natasha's off and on boyfriend into the mix, who just happens to be the Winter Solider. Though a quick assessment of the situation doesn't bode well for the two lovebirds.

Black Widow #9 is written by Chris Samnee and Mark Waid, with art from Samnee.

You can read the exclusive preview in the gallery, and the official description of the issue can be found below. It hits comic stores on December 28.
