Description

Not much Black Widow on this end page from DD #81, but we do get the first suggestion of the future Natasha/Matt relationship in panel one, and a reference to the Widow's Curse trope from her solo run in Amazing Adventures, which concluded two months prior.

I'd take a shot at explaining the content of the rest of the page, featuring the villain Mr. Kline (who a few pages earlier was revealed to actually be a robot named M9, and just as quickly renamed The Assassin) as he sets his sinister plans in motion... but to be honest, the plot is a a glorious gallimaufry of incoherence, and you have things to do.

Thanks, Lars!

Oh, yeah! I'd be remiss not to point out: the following page in Daredevil #81 is a pin-up of The Black Widow by Bill Everett. I've been seeking this original for years!

Regarding your description. Were you hoping that page was stuck to the back of this one? "Oh, yeah! I'd be remiss not to point out: the following page in Daredevil #81 is a pin-up of The Black Widow by Bill Everett. I've been seeking this original for years! "
