Fresh off the Spider-Women cross over event we have Silk dealing with the ramifications of an evil version of herself wrecking havoc on our Spider-Women. She is working with Black Cat hoping to find out what she is after. The two are obviously not on the same page and trigger the security system of Parker Industries and get stuck together for 45 minutes while they wait for the elevator doors reopen so they can get out.  

So since they need to wait they decide to talk about getting on the same page, and Cindy tells her about her past (big mistake Cindy!). As they leave Parker Industries, Black cat gives Cindy the item she stole from the safe and tells her that she trusts her, and wants her to bring it to her place. We see Mockingbird in the building as she witnesses them together.  

Cindy is talking to her psychiatrist and decides to pay a visit to her ex, hoping to at least have a friendship with him, but in typical Cindy Moon luck he moved. She feels odd thinking that the only person to tell her that she trusts her is Black Cat. 

Feeling down, she goes to the one place that she feels comfortable and at home, the bunker she was locked in. This part of the book made me feel really bad for Cindy. She has been through so much in her short Marvel lifespan and for her to feel better going there really gives you a glimpse into her overall character development. For me, in a perfect world Robbie Thompson would be the only writer for the Spider-Women books. 

Mockingbird goes to the bunker and the two talk. Cindy asks to talk outside of the bunker since that is the place where she talks to herself and the two head up to a rooftop. Mockingbird tells her that she can't trust Black Cat and that they need to bring her in. Cindy shows her what was stolen and agrees. The only problem is that Black Cat heard the whole thing. She bugged Cindy and looks really pissed! So this set us up for an action packed issue #10 for sure.  

This was a really good issue coming out of a cross-over, and set up this new arc pretty well. The book delivered on story and art, and as usual I highly recommend all Spider-Women books! So until next time DatBeardedBastard is out!

8/10
