10 Worst Things Black Widow Has Ever Done

3. Trying To Destroy The Avengers - Avengers #29

Were Natasha not under some severe mind-control by her old bosses for the majority of her attempt to destroy the Avengers, it'd definitely be the top of the list, because it's some classic supervillain shenanigans.

As it stands, it's still pretty bad - as Black Widow kidnaps the Scarlet Witch, almost gets Hawkeye killed, and fails to stop and try and work out exactly why she suddenly despises the superhero team, despite the fact that this clearly isn't something the brainwashing prevents, as we see her briefly wonder about this soul-consuming hate several times.

While it's far worse when the assassin does terrible deeds with a clear head, coming narrowly close to destroying the main superhero team in the world is still a pretty awful thing to do, even if it's not totally her fault.
