Warning! Spoilers for Spider-Man 2099: Exodus #4 by Marvel Comics
The 2099 Marvel Universe is expanding as a new Black Widow will debut in an upcoming comic with a superhero costume that the original version of the hero deserves. In a new preview of Spider-Man 2099: Exodus #4, Black Widow 2099 will make their first appearance in the future universe. The costume design by Alessandro Miracolo gives a new character an immediately recognizable look designed to show off Black Widow's superhero side.
Steve Orlando and artists Marte Garcia, Marco Castiello, Dave Watcher, and Ze Carlos have teamed up for the next chapter of Spider-Man 2099, as Miguel O'Hara's adventures in the future universe continue in the new miniseries, Spider-Man 2099: Exodus. While the series focuses on the web-slinger, it has also introduced (and will introduce) a bevy of new characters to the 2099 Marvel Universe, including a new Winter Soldier 2099, Loki 2099, and Moon Knight 2099. In addition, the fourth issue will feature the debut of a new Black Widow 2099, who gets a stunning costume and design from the issue's artist, Alessandro Miracolo.
In a new preview for Spider-Man 2099: Exodus #4 from Marvel Comics (H/T Newsarama) Black Widow 2099 was revealed with her new costume and design from Alessandro Miracolo. In a character design showcasing the new Black Widow 2099, the future hero gets a superhero costume the original version of the character always deserved. The red and black suit, with her iconic logo on her upper chest, as well as a long red cape, and black mask make the new hero immediately stand out.
Additionally, Black Widow 2099's costume can be seen in action in unlettered preview pages from Miracolo and Jesus Aburtov, as she chases Spider-Man 2099 throughout Nueva York. The preview features a confrontation between Black Widow 2099 and Hawkeye 2099, as the new character attacks him, nearly blowing him up with a bomb before Miguel arrives on the scene and saves Hawkeye in the nick of time. Marvel's variant cover for the issue by Ken Lashley features Black Widow 2099 and Spider-Man 2099 together, as it's unclear whether they will be friends or foes in the issue.
The red and black costume, with its long cape, finally gives Black Widow a costume that is less tactical and practical and more something you'd expect a superhero to wear. Black Widow 2099's real identity remains a mystery, but her new suit and the upcoming chaos she will cause hint the hero is about to make an explosive debut. Readers can see Black Widow 2099 debut as Spider-Man 2099: Exodus by Steve Orlando, Alessandra Miracolo, and Jesus Aburtov arrives in comic book stores on July 14, 2022.
