Wastelanders: Black Widow

In 2022, Marvel launched Wastelanders: Black Widow, a single-issue comic set in the grim future of the Old Man Logan universe. The story follows an aged Natasha Romanoff, long retired from her life as a spy, as she is pulled back into action when a ghost from her past resurfaces. Written and drawn by a creative team that includes writer Torunn Grønbekk and artist Pere Pérez, this issue expands the post-apocalyptic Wastelanders saga by exploring the legacy and resilience of one of Marvel's most formidable heroes. It matters as a compact, character-driven entry in a popular alternate timeline, offering a poignant coda to Black Widow's storied career.
