Black Widow Promo Photo Gives Full Look at Taskmaster


Despite being the main villain for Black Widow, we barely know anything about Taskmaster. Heck, we don't even know who's playing him. While he admittedly looks a bit drab in the previews, some new promo art from Topps gives him some more comic-accurate colors.

Check it out:

Here we really get to see that orange and white pop out, and we can see that the costume is actually kind of blue. The mask is still not as much of a skull as others would have hoped, and it kind of reminds everyone of Power Rangers villain Lord Zedd.

Probably the thing we haven't seen too much of is the shield. We don't know what it's made of, but it's probably sturdy enough to be useful in a fight. Red Guardian will also be getting his own shield in the movie, but it's probably not made of Vibranium like Captain America's. How great would it be if they finally used Adamantium in this universe? Since Disney already owns the X-Men, it's very possible, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see. If anything, it would be a fun teaser for Wolverine without having to introduce Wolverine.

At birth, the Black Widow (aka Natasha Romanova) is given to the KGB, which grooms her to become its ultimate operative. When the U.S.S.R. breaks up, the government tries to kill her as the action moves to present-day New York, where she is a freelance operative.

Black Widow is set to hit theaters on May 1.
