The latest take on Felicia Hardy, a.k.a. Black Cat, made her debut in "The Heist" DLC for Marvel's Spider-Man and quickly became a fan-favorite character. And while the Insomniac title referenced the thief's past relationship with the Spidey, we have yet to see what those early days looked like.
Fortunately for any fans hoping to learn more about the Hardy, Marvel has officially announced a new comic book spinoff for the character titled Marvel's Spider-Man: The Black Cat Strikes.
Like the previous comic books, City at War and Velocity, the forthcoming series will likely cover plot points seen within the game and its various DLC. But like those books, fans should expect to see some new material added to the mix, especially since an official description confirms the title will dive into "previously untold tales of Spider-Man and Black Cat’s relationship."
The Black Cat Strikes is currently set to run for a total of five issues and will be written by Dennis "Hopeless" Hallum with art by Luca Maresca. Also, be sure to check out the impressive cover art by Sana Takeda below:
