Thank you Black Widow! The MVP of Avengers: Endgame.

Sadly she died 😩

[@greyworld6242]

The most badass human woman in marvel. Can’t wait for her movie. Just like in the comics she has weird and complex relationships in the mcu.

Grey World is it true that the Black Widow movie will be Rated-R?🤔

[@dcmarvelcomicfans9458]

@@raheimwilson1270 no they shut that rumor down it's still going to be PG-13 which really pisses me off the action better be like winter soldier same goes for the tone

[@graysonred470]

Yeah, most badass human woman... Ever heard of the scarlet witch or black cat?

[@graysonred470]

@@dcmarvelcomicfans9458 bruh, we're talking about a woman in latex here looking like a dominatrix... Wow, you're...

[@xavier9533]

@@graysonred470 Scarlet Witch and Black Cat have powers and are Homo Mutates, making them not humans. In addition, neither are as widely known as Black Widow, mainly due to the fact neither have had prominent roles in movies with the latter never having been in a movie. Same goes for TV shows, neither have been very prominent in those. My original point still stands, neither are humans. Humans meaning base line humans; so no mutants, eternals, deviants, mutates, etc.

[@terranceknull9644]

It's about time we did a history of black widow.

[@astropunch101]

Damn Natasha banged Iron Man, Hawkeye, Captain America, Hulk, and Daredevil

[@graysonred470]

A thot I'd love to prick with my needle though, surely they don't have STD'S OR STI'S...

[@jodymack7018]

Didn't she hookup with punisher to?

[@Heart_ken01]

In the comics I believe it was mainly Ironman, Bucky (Captain America), and Daredevil.

[@hippoburger5334]

To be fair Iron Man has slept with 10x that. Same with daredevil.

[@a-bomb777]

There is no proof of Hulk

[@M.W.K6996]

There should be a "Black Widow vs. Black Canary" episode.

[@MDH2022]

Dang that’s really tuff I love both of them. I would hand it to canary just because of her cry but fighting skills Black Widow

Eli & Dani but Canary has gone toe-to-toe with Wonder Woman. She also beat Superman in a fight(in the Injustice [2?] story arc at least).

BUT WHAT HAPPENED IN BUDAPEST?! I must know.

[@mrminecraftcubeable]

what happens in Budapest stays in Budapest

[@Mate397]

@Snoi Med The fact that they compared it to the invasion of New York, I'd hardly call it "boring"

[@Mate397]

@Snoi Med I suppose that would make sense.

[@rexwrecks5227]

It would make sense for what happened in Budapest to be included in a Black Widow or Hawkeye movie or series.

[@davebalda]

Wait for the movie ahah

[@Flash_-gy9vp]

Would love to see a Black Widow vs Winter Soldier video.

[@angelaphsiao]

“Black Widow Homecoming” Snickers in spider

[@emile5921]

Actually i think that her true name in proper Russian should be Natalia Romanova. Natasha is a friendly version of Natalia, and the ova suffix is for women instead of the "ov" which is for men.

[@Artahe]

Man, I have to say, I enjoy your History of series so much.

Booty blindness, my only weakness... how did you know?

[@pulsarstargrave256]

I've never heard of the term but it is oh, so TRUE!

when I was watching endame and she died someone in the back was like “least no one important died” I stared at this man so hard 😂😂

No more secrets was amazing and so was tales of suspense 100-104. I also really liked her after cap died in civil war where she teams up with the winter soldier

I heard of the name Black Widow before but didn't know anything about, after watching this video now I know everything about her, she is in my favorite superheroes list now 🖤

[@imaginationconversation]

I had to look into this character more. Black Widow has been a very interesting character for me lately.

[@AlexMartinez-me2yc]

Thank you for actually telling us about the Black Widow instead of overdramatically reading the comic books!!!

[@Philosophical24]

Came here after that SDCC Black Widow movie reveal 👌🔥

[@yy-hj4br]

At the end of the first issue of Marjorie Liu's run on Black Widow was a super detailed timeline of the character that was so convoluted it almost made me hate continuity as a concept. Most of it revolved around who she slept with. EDIT: it was a continuity timeline that tried to bring together almost 50+ years of continuity into a straight, canonical timeline. It wasn't a publication timeline.

[@mairisie25]

wow had no idea of all her powers. Thanks for the great review of Black Widow.

[@jordanlee5445]

They shouldn’t have killed her in Endgame.

[@jermiahchatman3610]

Variant comics please make a history of saint walker 😩

[@Makman1994]

Please do a History of X-Men Episode or a Evolution of X-Men Movies and Shows Episode? It could be the best way to celebrate the end of the original X-Men movie franchise. Your personal opinion on these subjects would be highly appreciated and entertaining.

[@milesmorales6305]

Damn it why couldn't be Hawkeye If you know you know

[@ambre4144]

[@felixtatang414]

Hawkeye had a family tho..

MAIT Mait same here :(

If it was Hawkeye it would ruin the story. We needed to see Hawkeye reunite with his family.

[@archangel3433]

Let me rephrase it. Why did it have to be Natasha and Hawkeye?

[@toriwilliams8926]

She needs her own movie

she will she getting it pretty soon but it's going to be a prequel

[@michalh2299]

You got your wish 🎉

Wow i was just watching endgame again and i thought to myself aris should do a history of black widow. I go on my youtube and see this! My man!

dark avengers and taskmaster episodes will be perfect

Thx yall!

Very good history of Black Widow. It would great to see, a history of Falcon. It would be dope to know more about him. Just my opinion.

[@djknucklez1]

Nazis never attacked Stalingrad in 1928, that was during WWII between 1942-1943. There is something very wrong with that date because the Russian Civil War only lasted until 1923. That date reference in that comic seems to be a mistake. Can you explain? @variant

[@Axeloy]

what a secretly awesome character

[@luvja1den]

I was waiting on this

[@burtkorbin]

I NEED a Dark Avengers video!!!!

[@kostastsiplakis968]

Hey man I love u vids and u are awsome!👍👍👍😂

[@davidweide4611]

Buy List looks great this month. It sucks that Marvel Unlimited only adds comics 6 months after release though.

[@knineTJ]

Long time listener. 1st time commenter lol. I sure I seen majority of your videos. There are a few shows. I dont think you touch on. That I would like to hear your review. No particular order but (DC Vixen, Droom Patrol, alot of the DC and Marvel animated movies, and all of CW DC shows.) If you have or did please send me the link to them. Im sure you have a huge enough following to attract the big head at Marvel and DC. Since they do listen to fans. I would really appreciate it if you would. Put the pressure on DC and Marvel to finally make a upto date DC vs Marvel fighting game for console and pc. We need this. I also really believe that DC vs Marvel fighting game will be one of the highest selling game of all time. It would have both DC and Marvel fans support not to mention fans of fighting games period. We need that game asap. Also please put it out there that we want a seemless dvd version of infinity war and end game combine on one dvd. Im talking a 6 hour dvd/movie straight through no credit till very end. I want to live in a universe where I can watch both movies as one big 6 hour movie. Let our voice be heard lol. By the way the snap didnt create the mutiverse and different earths. They already co-existed. The snap created a bridge/hole in the muti verse. Thats what I got from Far from home trailer. Keep up the good work great show.

Black widow greatness

[@athinethengwe3310]

do a history on Adam warlock

This history only proves that having a solo movie or movies is not a good idea for Black Widow. She is bad ass yet is a peripheral character always.

You should do a history of Shang chi episode

[@cosmicman6201]

of course

[@damonlee6874]

Hi, can anyone tell me what does black widow offer to the avengers when the avengers include thor, hulk, capt, iron man, and a lot more superheroes stronger than the widow. If you tell me she offers espionage and assassin. Then I ask you who can she assassinate when she is just a human. Stark also already have stealth tech for espionage. She is a great character but I just want to ask power-wise what does she offer.

[@IamTheBuckethead]

Good stuff.

[@rexwrecks5227]

I know that it hasn’t come out yet, but since the release date of Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker is drawing nearer and nearer, could you do a History of Ahsoka Tano? You mentioned her in your History if the Jedi video, but didn’t go in depth.

I'm more surprised you didn't do a "History of Hela" video when Thor Ragnarok came out years ago. Most people who only saw the movie, aren't that knowledgeable on Norse mythology, and have never wikipedia'd her still think she's Thor's sister rather than Loki's daughter.
