From the Winter Soldier panel: How integral is Natasha to the story? Johansson: "Integral." Feige: "She and Cap really share this film." Johansson, "She and Cap now have this relationship that they've built. It's an opportunity to see how she is in a more casual working relationship with somebody. It breaks down the barriers that she's put up. You learn more about her each time." She promises the "film is gritty, down, dirty knuckle fighting. A lot of action in this one."
Imma just take a moment here and do a little dance. I'm excited for this movie now.
Page 2 and 3 of mini-comic are inked, 4 is halfway pencilled and 5 is layouted.
I'm always envious when I see other artists' comic thumbs and they look like little works of art in themselves. Mine look rough and really rather ugly, and I see them more as a form of shorthand writing. *eyes page 5*
The other day I got a surprise visit from a family member from the Polish branch of the family. My Polish is almost nonexistent after two decades of disuse, and his German isn't any better. No English or Japanese. Heck, I'd have taken French over Polish. The surprising thing is that we got a pretty good conversation going in spite of it. Luckily I had just unearthed my old dictionary from the attic so that helped. But after two hours of that I was mentally exhausted. And I kept using Japanese words.
Toying with the idea of taking just one refresher course or something. Just so that when he comes back in a few months, communication won't be quite so laboured. It would be nice to get back in touch.

“Natasha is a huge part of the sequel because, you know, you kind of, you do want to concentrate on the people who don’t have their own franchises. […] She was the most fun for me because she’s not a hero, you know, and it’s something that I read and I feel bad that I can’t remember who wrote the book, but it’s in one of the books explaining ‘These guys are heroes, you are a spy. It’s a different thing, it’s a different skill set, and you don’t have their moral high ground or any of that good stuff’ and that just makes her so interesting to me. So yeah, the stuff I’ve got going on with her in the second one is, it’s killer.”
