History

Natasha Romanova was a former KGB spy and assassin, nicknamed the Black Widow. She was originally part of the Ultimates' covert operations ("black ops") team, but was subsequently moved to public status after a publicly acceptable background was written for her. The Widow seems to have genetic or cybernetic enhancements that allow her to coordinate herself in combat far better than the average human, being able, for instance, to leap across the gap between two high-rises. After accepting a marriage proposal from Tony Stark, he presented her with a black suit of Iron Man armor as an engagement present, along with a set of nanites bonded to her skin to control the armor. While testing the armor, they couldn't agree on a new name for her, such as Cybernatrix or Iron Maiden.

While trying to capture Thor, Natasha pretended that she was pregnant to trick Thor for a sneak attack.

Black Widow is later revealed to be a traitor, responsible for revealing the identity of the Hulk, framing Thor and Captain America, and aiding the Liberators in their invasion of America. After killing Edwin Jarvis holding Tony Stark hostage and attempting to extort his enormous fortune at gunpoint, Stark activates the nanites in her bloodstream and freezes her body in place. He reveals that he had been downloading her knowledge into his mind through the nanites. He then summarily knocks her unconscious with a wine bottle, resulting in probable brain damage. After the Liberators' defeat, Hawkeye tracked Black Widow to a hospital, where he shot her in the head with an arrow, killing her for her role in his family's death.
