The second woman to claim the mantle of Black Widow, Yelena Belova is also a graduate of the Moscow-based covert-training academy known as the Red Room. Hostile to her predecessor Natasha Romanov, Yelena has been conditioned to believe that the designation is hers by right. A child playing an adult's game- Yelena is easily tricked and far too trusting. Her superiors in the GRU wield her like a weapon, playing on her patriotism and her love of Mother Russia. Yelena's physical strength and stamina is equal to that of an Olympic athlete. She is also a master martial artist and has extensive espionage training. Hungry and passionate, Yelena has not forgotten what the Black Widow should be at her core: a spy.
