COVER BY GREG HORN GREG RUCKA (W)/IGOR KORDEY (P & I) ? THE SCOOP: Master crime writer Greg Rucka and CABLE's Igor Kordey present a gritty, uncompromising tale of Russian international espionage agent Yelena Belova ? the new Black Widow! ? THE STORY: When her former mentor is found brutally murdered in a Moscow bondage club, Belova must go deep undercover to find the killer. Torn by self-doubt and divided loyalties, she descends into a world of deadly games and deadlier predators! With sensual covers by Greg Horn (ELEKTRA), BLACK WIDOW: PALE LITTLE SPIDER is a smart and sexy adventure that could only be told under the freedom of the MAX imprint! ? GREG RUCKA SPEAKS: "Yelena has pretty much been dominated ever since she began her training to be the Black Widow. That's the nature of that sort of training: 'You will learn these things, you will go this way ? you did it well, you will be rewarded. You did it bad, you will be punished.' Now, she's in the bondage scene where all of her skills are applicable, but not readily so.You can't walk into a bondage club, grab somebody around the throat, throw them to the floor and say, 'Tell me what I want to know!' and expect them to cough it up. If they don't what are you going to do? What if they don't tell you just so you do hit them again, but harder, because they're getting turned on? When that does happen, Yelena is going to give an 'Ewww!' that will be a combination of her being repulsed and perhaps a little turned on herself." ? THE FORMAT: Each issue of this three-issue, monthly series is 32 pages, with ads. 7-59606-05152-6-00111 2.99 Cover price $2.99.

by HIROAKI SAMURA; produced by STUDIO PROTEUS The torture of Hyakurin continues. It's amazing that anyone could live through the brutality subjected to Hyakurin by these merciless Itto-ryü monsters, but she's holding her tongue like a pro. But sheesh, the girl's in trouble. How will she get out of this painfully dire situation? Fortunately, the agony of so much pain allows Hyakurin to slip deep into her mind, thinking of poor, dead Shinriji, and how they ended up on this path together. Slowly, teasingly, information about the Mugai-Ryü is bubbling up, and the ferocious Giichi, with a weapon like an oversized, razor sharp handcuff, will soon pay another visit.

PAINTED COVER BY GREG HORN BILL ROSEMANN (W)/GUY DAVIS (P & I) ? THE SCOOP: What's it really like to be a reporter the Daily Bugle? Find out in an urban noir thriller illustrated by Guy Davis (The Marquis)! ? THE STORY: What's it like to write about Marvel's larger-than-life superhumans... especially if you think they're a bunch of immature brats? Rookie reporter Katherine Farrell hates "The Capes". They wear ridiculous costumes. They have petty feuds. They run around destroying public property when real heroes like cops and firemen are sacrificing their lives to help others. But, hey, Kat's a newbie, so it's the beat she's stuck with. That is, unless she can nail a big story and move up to the City Crime Desk next to her hero Ben Urich. Trouble is, her career, not to mention her life, is threatoned when she uncovers the identity of a super-villian serial killer ? a new super hero designed by Editor In Chief Joe Quesada! ? THE CREATORS: If you loved Guy Davis' pulp stylings in Sandman Mystery Theatre and Neverman, just wait until you see his first series for Marvel! Plus: it's written by Your Man @ Marvel Bill Rosemann, and features computer painted covers by ELEKTRA's Greg Horn! ? THE BUZZ: "The series sounds like a cross between MARVELS, which presented a look at super-heroes through the eyes of a journalist, ABC's Top Ten and Image's Powers... I'm intrigued." -Mike Sangiacomo, Cleveland Plain Dealer ? THE FORMAT: The debut issue of this monthly, 4-issue mini-series is 32 pages, with ads. 7-59606-05261-5-00111 (MarvelPG) 2.99 Cover price $2.99.
