Black Widow's Bite

"Here's the only lesson you'll ever need." "Yow!! Where'd that come from, Natasha?"

- Natasha Romanoff and Clint Barton

Black Widow's Bite is an electroshock weapon, created by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Tech Directorate, that can deliver powerful electrical discharges from two shaped bracelets worn by the Black Widow. Each bracelet is marked with blue lights from electrical capacitors and electrical wiring that appear when activated and allow their wielder to electrocute enemies by making contact with a pair of electrical probes.

History
During a security exercise on board the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, Black Widow got the opportunity to test her Black Widow's Bite against an infiltrator. However, the weapon malfunctioned after the first shot and she was forced to discard it.

When the Chitauri forces invaded Earth during the Battle of New York, Black Widow used the Black Widow's Bite to electrocute several enemy troops by jamming her charged fists into them, while engaging them in her unique style of close combat.

When S.H.I.E.L.D. sent STRIKE, Captain America, and Black Widow to recapture the Lemurian Star, Agent Romanoff used the Widow's Bite to take out a pirate guarding the ship's engine room.

Capabilities

 * Electrocution - The Black Widow's Bite main function is to deliver short ranged electrical shocks to stun the target.
 * Grappling Hook - The Black Widow's Bite also contains a grappling hook able to support Romanoff's weight and slow her decent in case of a fall.
 * Taser Disk Shooting - Black Widow's Bite also shoots Taser Disks, which are small disk-shaped objects that deliver a electric discharge with the purpose of incapacitating and disorientating targets.

Trivia

 * In Iron Man 2, Black Widow wears a pair of bracelets reminiscent similar to the Black Widow's Bite during her raid on Hammer Industries searching for Ivan Vanko. However, these bracelets do not have the same glove attachments and blue lights and are not used like the Black Widow's Bite in The Avengers.
