Badass, trilling, packed with great action with distinct and awesome visual style. Honestly it's like an action movie translated into a comic book, thanks to Samnee and his understanding of the medium. Both him with Waid really had a vision about this book and IMO it shows. Although I would advice the future readers to not go expecting too much out of the book writing-wise or something too deep, because although the book has it's moment on that front too, this comics is mainly concerned with the action, the thrills and the atmosphere and for me, if you want to do something like that, Black Widow is one of the best characters to use, because it fits perfectly with her character.
