Spider-Woman: New Avengers

New Avengers 12

The Review:
Bendis·Finch·Miki·D'Armata
When the Hand Assasins retreat from their attack on the New Avengers at Stark Enterprises Penthouse in Osaka, Japan, Spider-Woman confronts Viper about, "we had a deal..." In this heated confrontation, Vipers reminds SW that Hydra gave back her powers and they can take them away. As the other Avengers approach them, Viper orders SW to take her down with her venom blast. It seems Captain America might suspect something by questioning her actions and reminding her that they are a team.

Storyline/Illustration: Bendis, it's great you brought this story-line back (Hydra-SHIELD), it makes a great connection to SW's first appearance in Marvel Spotlight #32. I'm still not use to the lack of narratives as you go to the different scenes. But the amazing Finch, Miki, and D'Armata production makes up for it. Great work guys.

  • This is only my take on how she got her powers back after reading SW essentials. In MTIO 29-32, it mentions HYDRA developed a serum that had the chemical structure-genetic code that created SW. Which also means that the original second Spider-Woman is Alicia Masters. My guess is that HYDRA administered the serum to Jessica to get her powers back. If this guess is correct, SW's powers should be enhanced, similar to Masters' powers which were much stronger. So there may be additiona powers Jessica obtained like webbing and extra legs that haven't been revealed yet.
