365 Days of Books of Interest: Day #25: Black Widow: The Itsy-Bitsy Spider

One good thing about those Marvel movies, they put the spotlight on Black Widow and increased the character's popularity. And with the success of those movies, Marvel has been re-publishing older comics.

This Black Widow trade includes two stories that I haven't read but I really want to.

Book: Black Widow: The Itsy-Bitsy Spider (issues Black Widow (1999) 1-3 and Black Widow (2001) 1-3) by Devin Grayson and Greg Rucka with illustrations by J.G. Jones and Scott Hampton

Description:

Natasha Romanov has always led a life of adventure. First, she was a Soviet spy, fighting on the Cold War front line. She then defected to the West, eventually becoming a super hero and an Avenger. Natasha has earned a reputation as a consummate professional, coldly efficient and as deadly as her namesake. But now, her time as Black Widow may be running out. Yelena Belova, the new Black Widow, seeks to claim the mantle she feels was stolen from her Motherland.
