1. She's Even More Powerful Than She Seems
The most popular version of Black Widow is almost certainly the film version, as it introduced her to many new fans who'd never read the comics. And even in the films, Natasha seems incredibly powerful, possessing strength, impressive combat ability and a huge intellect. However, in the comics, her powers are even more remarkable. As mentioned, her backstory has her being injected with a variation on the serum given to Captain America, making her stronger and much more durable than normal humans. She is immune to most poisons and diseases and her ageing has been dramatically slowed down, which is how she manages to appear in so many different eras without having visibly aged. In the movies, she's currently only scratched the surface of what her comic book counterpart can do. Hopefully she'll get the chance to showcase all her super-skills.
