• 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."
