Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow has already been the most visible female hero in their film efforts, and soon she’ll appear in three more of Marvel Studios’ Phase 2 films. The character’s background has been hinted at, and Marvel Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada promised fans that at the end of “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” fans would get an idea for the next phase of Natasha Romanoff’s story. The Black Widow has become Marvel’s first lady, a capable and multi-tiered character that proved she could hang with the big boys in “The Avengers.” Heck, she out espionaged the God of Lies, if that doesn’t solidly Natasha as comics’ biggest lady badass, I don’t know what does. Natasha deserves her own film…An exploration into Natasha’s past can reveal the black ops history of the Marvel Universe. With “Bucky” Barnes along for the ride, “Black Widow” could easily become Marvel’s own James Bond-like franchise, a super spy saga capable of shattering genre expectations.

So great.
#god i loved this scene SO MUCH #because she’s scared. she’s scared and everything’s going wrong and she just wants to huddle into a corner and do nothing at all #she’s just had to face her worst fear‚ something she can’t control‚ can’t manipulate‚ can’t fight #everything is going horribly wrong and honestly if she hadn’t answered i doubt anyone would have specifically noticed #but she gets up anyway. she pulls herself together and she radios in and she goes to stop clint. #some guy who totally missed the point complained in a review that it was unfeminist to have had her be scared and i say fuck that #do you have any idea how wonderful it was to see a heroine who freaks out and then pushes past it‚ sir #who is ALLOWED by the narrative to freak out‚ who is not shamed for her fear‚ who can be afraid without it defining her #because it was pretty fucking wonderful to me
so glad someone pointed this out
In addition to the above, they needed someone competent and uber awesome to run from the Hulk in order to show how pants-shittingly scary he was, and since Barton was a bad guy still…
This right here. Joss Whedon writes women who are real, who have weaknesses and hopes and fears and flaws but at the end of the day they push past all that and they’re badass anyway (see: Buffy, Willow, and Faith in BTVS). Courage isn’t not being scared, it’s being scared and doing what you know is right anyway because it’s right. Everything is a clusterfuck in this moment and she doesn’t have to answer, she can run away and hide, she has the skills to disappear but she made a decision to be one of the good guys, and even if she hid until it was mostly safe then slipped back to the control room, no one would have noticed, she could have said she was busy doing something else, she’s a master at lying. She didn’t. She is literally shaking with fear because she was almost killed by a huge impossibly strong mutated rage monster that could break her in half but she hears that she’s needed and knows that she can take out Hawkeye and help get something else under control so she pulls herself together with a deep breath and goes where she’s needed and gets shit done. Natasha fucking Romanoff.
COURAGE IS BEING SCARED AND THEN PUNCHING YOUR FEARS IN THE FUCKING FACE.
BLESS THIS POST.
Don’t forget that at this point she had already spoken to Loki, who had, in different words, essentially threatened to force Clint to rape her and then kill her, both violently.
Knowing this, knowing the control Loki has over Clint, she goes because the mission is more important than her fear and she KNOWS she can take Clint on and bring him back.

i’ve got red in my ledger. i’d like to wipe it out.

I think it’s really important that everyone watching Jessica Jones remembers that Jess and Luke end up having an adorable perfect baby girl and it’s canon in at least one ‘verse that she grows up to be a Captain America who reports to Natasha Romanoff.
