relevant to your interests?
I come bearing news of a Marvel online sale: The Women of Marvel. My email says that issues are $0.99 (USD) until 11 p.m. EST tonight (11/15) in North America and at "local evening times in other regions."
Most pertinently, The Name of the Rose, Marjorie Liu & Daniel Acuna's excellent Black Widow title is included in this sale. (If you're looking at the sale page, those are going to be the Black Widow #1-5 issues. Yay for confusing comics titles?)
One caveat: Natasha is not with Clint in this arc, though they are friends/partners/fighting companions. The relationship isn't a big part of the story, though. Natasha and her past and who she is and why she does what she does is the focus, and she is amazing throughout. Oh, a second caveat: this is going to spoil the hell out of a major plot point in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. If you know/aren't sure what I'm babbling about, feel free to PM or email me and I'll see if I can confirm or deny w/o spoiling you further.
(If you have a comixology account, they're also running the sale (see here.)
Happy Friday!

Also made me get off my duff and actually register the copies of Secret Avengers I have...
Which reminds me, I've got an Avengers Assembled (based on the new cartoon) that wasn't in my long box (is confused...)
I bought the Name of the Rose arc, hopefully I'll get a chance to read it soon, lol

I should be trying to get some sleep before Thor this afternoon but whatever, this was more fun than sleeping (especially with a sinus infection that affects teeth...XD)
I'd only known parts of the war part of Natasha's background so was nice to get the whole picture. Art was pretty good, though weird to me in spots, but that might just me having gotten used to who's been drawing Secret Avengers.
It's funny, I saw the end narration Natasha has on a piece of fan art the other day, didn't know where it came from, makes the art neater.
Also, I know he's only in their briefly but I'm reminded again how glad I am MCU and Secret Avengers Clint doesn't have that mask XD.
