Natasha Romanoff (aka “Black Widow”), is a curious character in the MCU. She has a complicated past, with a “ledger” dripping with blood.

It’s a past she wants to forget, but it relentlessly haunts her until she confronts it head-on in the standalone movie, Black Widow.

Interestingly, she has also proven to be one of the more compassionate heroes and the one who sacrificed her life for the fate of the world in Endgame.

Even more thought provoking is her constant association with Catholic imagery.

*Note, there are some SPOILERS for Black Widowabout half-way down the page.

This is first shown in the movie Avengers (2012), where she is in an intense interrogation scene. For some odd reason the camera pans to a pile of old religious icons, including an icon to Our Lady of Perpetual Help, a clearly Catholic icon.
