comics read: Black Widow, Young Avengers, Secret Avengers

One newish comic that came in the mail today and a couple more old ones that just recently opened up on Marvel Unlimited

Black Widow #1 – Edmondson, Noto
Very pretty, plot is a non-event, KITTY.

Young Avengers #6-7 – Gillen, Brown/McKelvie
I've felt like the last few issues dragged, but these take the action away from the Mother plot and into 1) a factory skilled at exploiting powered employees and 2) space. And I finally got to see the America Chavez in her "Your ticket to the multiverse, Princess" panel, which is maybe all I ever needed from this comic, so.

Secret Avengers #6 – Spencer, Guice
I managed to follow the action on this issue, unlike the last one! The set-up of the conflict between Maria and Daisy would be more engaging if I had any idea what the basis of it was. It's not like Maria hasn't done things just as sketchy as sending "unsanctioned" (lol) assassins in to kill A.I.M. leadership. Maybe it's strictly an ego thing.

I really liked Young Avengers #6--Tommy is hilarious and adorable, and David has such great reactions to everything. I also really liked #5, especially Kate getting annoyed by all the metaphors.

Yes! #6 was really cute. The bit at the beginning where David is answering the superhero hotline was hilarious, too. And I liked the fill-in artist.

The fill-in artist really was great. :)
