    Thank goodness MCU Yelena Belova don’t have any of these baggage. Giving her a clean slate works best. Given the popularity of Pugh’s portrayal, Marvel may even retcon her comic book origin to be more inline with her MCU counterpart.

      I normally like it when things are adapted well from the comics, but the comic book history of Yelena became such a mess. I'm honestly glad they threw it all out and started fresh with the core concept of her being another Black Widow.
      I don't know if they'll attempt to retcon her backstory, but from what I've read she's been more of an ally to Natasha recently, so they'll probably just move forward without bringing up the whole Adaptoid thing. She already has the premise of being another woman from the Red Room, which seems to be the important aspect to keep.

      That seems like the best course of attack. It’s way easier to get behind than all that overly complicated comic history.

      I also think that the fact they have Yelena being a genuinely friendly and affable person would be a welcome thing to introduce into the comics considering I knew her MCU version before the comics (I'm not much of a comics person, honestly.)

      @@robertrowley4929 Most adaptations of comic book origins into other media do that a lot to simplify them and make sense in whatever new interpretation they're making. For example, the most famous superhero origin stories, Batman and Superman's, have been retold and reinterpreted many times with new details added and/or old ones removed each time but with the basic story remaining the same.

    So, theoretically, there could be a clone of Natasha out there as well. If Scarlett Johansson was not in conflict with Disney at this point, that would provide a way to get her back into the MCU.

  • @f12mnb

    Good theory - the Marvel and DC original material was often convoluted and never treated with much reverence by the creators - they just had to get x number of books out each week.
