Monthly Comics Discussion Post: July. Ish.  
*facepalm* I'm so sorry that this is so late. I got distracted by Promptathon (which is going really well, keep it up, guys!).

July gave us the prettiest issue of Black Widow yet, and finally, another issue of Hawkeye! And what an issue it was.

Elsewhere we had the first issue of the new Storm ongoing, and an issue of Ms. Marvel that may go down as the most adorable superhero comic ever. I was grinning from start to finish.

As August's issue of Black Widow has already been released, feel free to discuss it in the comments as well. Next month, Clint gets a cameo!

For Black Widow, I just can't get over how pretty the art is. I love how these past few issues (and the next one) consist of a dude showing up, teaming up briefly with Natasha, then leaving. Edmondson and Noto are definitely playing up the loner "I work alone" thing, which I'm not too fond of typically. But I do like how the events of the text undermine that. Natasha does work independently, but she has Maria and lawyer dude as support. (Also that cliffhanger!)

I thought the Storm #1 was promising, and I love her, so I will definitely be buying the next one. How cool would it be if she and lady!Thor to fry things with lightning together at some point?

The art for Black Widow gets prettier with every issue. I like that all these brawny male superheroes turn up and Natasha's like "whatevs, gonna call Maria."

I need to hire someone to make me shoes and things out of the Black Widow art. And yes, Maria in BW is so good, especially since we haven't seen enough of her in MCU.
