Monica Chang-Fury (also known as Black Widow) is a fictional character appearing in comics published by Marvel Comics. She is a character of the Ultimate Marvel universe and formerly married to Nick Fury.[1] She has served as the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., the Marvel Universe spy agency, being one of only three women who has served in the position.[2][3]
Fictional character biography[]
Monica Chang-Fury is the second character to use the Black Widow codename in the Ultimate Marvel continuity, debuting in Ultimate Comics: Avengers #3.[4]
She recruited the Punisher.[5] Later she was transferred to the New Ultimates.[6] After Fury returned as director of S.H.I.E.L.D., he reassembled the Ultimates and Monica rejoined that team, moving with her and Fury's child, Julius Chang, to the Triskelion.[7] She then became director of S.H.I.E.L.D.[8]
In the All-New Ultimates final series, Monica tells Jessica Drew after they captured Crossbones.[9] Later, while working with the FBI, Monica apparently is killed by Green Goblin.[10]
Other versions[]
Monica Chang makes her first appearance in Marvel's mainstream Earth-616 continuity in the series Avengers A.I.[11] In this series, Monica is the chief of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s A.I. Division. Monica enlists Hank Pym to help her stop Dimitrios (who evolved from the fail-safe virus used to defeat Ultron at the end of the Age of Ultron storyline) and they form the Avengers A.I. consisting of a Doombot, Victor Mancha and the Vision. During their first mission, the Avengers A.I. faced hijacked S.H.I.E.L.D. Drones which attacked a hospital in Atlanta.[12] It is revealed she is a devout Muslim.[13][14] She later prevents the end of the universe by preventing the execution of an LMD infected with a virus.[15]
In other media[]
A character named Kayla, who sports Monica Chang's attire but resembles the 2099 depiction, makes a minor appearance in the Avengers: Ultron Revolution episode "Into the Future", voiced by Jennifer Hale.[16] She opposes Kang the Conqueror alongside Hawkeye, Thunderstrike, Toni Ho, and Joaquin Torres.
