Ahead of the character’s live action MCU return in next year’s Thunderbolts, Yelena Belova is set to take centre stage in Marvel’s comic book universe this November as the publisher launches an all-new White Widow limited series from writer Sarah Gailey (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and artist Alessandro Miracolo (Star Wars: Yoda), complete with the following rather stunning variant cover from Stanley ‘Artgerm’ Lau…
“I am beyond exhilarated to launch White Widow into her own series,” said writer Sarah Gailey with regards to the upcoming series. “Yelena Belova is an incredible character who deserves independence, community, and the opportunity to kill on her own terms. Getting the chance to work with this team at Marvel is a thrill. I can’t wait for the world to see what Alessandro and I have in store!”
After Natasha Romanoff cut ties with the Red Room, Yelena debuted as the second, and more morally flexible, Black Widow. Now, Yelena has freed herself from the shackles of the past and fights by Natasha Romanoff’s side as the WHITE WIDOW! In her new series, witness the newest stage of this exciting evolution of the character as Yelena is finally free to choose her own path. Superspy. Rogue agent. Shadow of the Black Widow. What will Yelena’s next role in the Marvel Universe be?
