Black Widow (Natasha Romanoff) is a supervillainess turned superheroine in the Marvel Universe.

Origin[]

A former Russian spy, Natasha Romanoff (AKA Black Widow) defected and began working with the Avengers and then on her own as a superhero.

Biography[]

Very little is known about Natasha Romanoff's early life and much of what has been stated has yet to be verified.

Skills and Abilities[]

The Black Widow is a world class athlete, gymnast, acrobat, aerialist capable of numerous complex maneuvers and feats, expert martial artist (including karate, judo, ninjutsu, aikido, savate, various styles of kung fu, and boxing), marksman, and weapons specialist as well as having extensive espionage training.[44] She is also an accomplished ballerina.

Natasha has received the Red Room's variant of the Super-Soldier Serum. As a result, her physical and mental abilities had been enhanced slightly beyond human limits.[45]

The red room suppressed her memory of true events as opposed to implanted ones of the past but she still has some memory of the red room. If you watch Peggy cater show it'll inform you of what she kind of is. She's a Russian spy that was suppose to be designed to kill Russian enemies , But note this was back from ww2 and the cold war for U.S.S.R and yes U.S.S.R is a real thing. The Soviet experimentation has rendered her body infertile so she cannot have babies if you watched this movie avengers age of Ultron the Hulk and Black Widow want to be together but she said "I can't have any babies because of that"

Her agility is greater than that of an Olympic gold medalist. She can coordinate her body with balance, flexibility, and dexterity easily.[47]

Her bodily tissues have been augmented to superhuman development but people still don't know. She possesses exceptional durability, strength, endurance, and stamina because of her training to the red room .[44]

She displays an uncanny affinity for psychological manipulation and can mask her real emotions perfectly. Like she did to Loki to see who he was going to target, she possesses the ability to rapidly respond to changing tactical situations when she needs to.[48]

Natasha is an expert tactician. She is a very effective strategist, tactician, and field commander. She has led the Avengers.
