So, I'm a huge Marvel fan in case you didn't know. The movies really got me into it, way back when, and I've started to read more and more comics. Actually, with Age of Ultron coming out this weekend in America, I've already gotten three tickets- one for the premier, one for the Saturday after, and one for the Sunday after. You could say I'm obsessed.
When it was announced that Marvel would be bridging the gap into YA, I was super excited. But then the hype all died down and I pretty much forgot about it. Until the other day, when I was wandering the internet and found both the title and the description for this lovely book.
The description from goodreads reads as follows:
Enter the world of Black Widow in this thrilling Marvel young adult novel, penned by #1 New York Times bestselling author Margaret Stohl.Dying inside for this one. What are you waiting for this week?
This novel features all the thrilling adventure readers will expect from the Marvel brand, backed up by the young-adult cred of #1 New York Times bestselling author Margaret Stohl. Uncover a new side of the Marvel Universe, accessible to old fans and new readers alike, as Stohl weaves an unforgettable story through the world of the Black Widow

Interesting. I worry about Black Widow in YA fiction, though. She is a pretty racy character.
ReplyDeleteI see where you're coming from. With how they've treated her in the movies, and with the wide scope of the YA genre, I think it'll be okay. Of all the characters, I do think she's the best choice to launch into YA, though.

I didn't know this book was going to be released - and I'm as fan of Marvel as well. It seems an interesting book - wonder how a Black Window YA novel will work out.
ReplyDeleteHappy readings! :)
I think out of all the marketable characters right now, she's the best choice for a YA novel. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI didn't know anything about this book. I hope you enjoy reading it! Thank you for stopping by My WoW.
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed it's as good as it sounds. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteThis actually sounds really intriguing, even though I'm not much of a super-hero fan I love graphic novels (even though I haven't touched one since February!) Glad to see they are marketing YA in the near future. Hope the book is splendid for you and thanks for stopping by my blog! :)

It has great potential.

It seems to have shot past a lot of people's radar. When I first heard of it, it was a small mention in a little press release that gave very little information. I had to wait months to realize it was still a thing.
