"“The Black Cat is back and starring in her first ever ongoing series! Felicia Hardy has a taste for the finer things in life and a certain set of skills that can get her into any mansion, vault or museum to… procure said finer things. But due to her actions in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, Felicia’s not only on the run from the police but also by the New York Thieves’ Guild and their boss ODESSA DRAKE! High octane heists, climactic chases, and twist after twist that will keep you on the edge of your seat like a cat on a perch. IN THIS ISSUE- Find out a secret from Cat’s past in a bonus story that sets a foundation for the future! All this and an all new MARVEL MEOW short story by Nao Fuji!”"
From the description above, it is confirmed that this takes after the events of Amazing Spider-Man issues No. 10 and 11, in which she and Spidey teamed up to get back all the stolen items from the Thieves of Guild. The description also states that we will be finding out a secret from Black Cat’s past, along her fighting against the Thieves of Guild and the police. It would also be great to see Spider-Man appear in this comic, he and Black Cat make such a good team.
If the story is well written and handled properly, this series could actually be really good, since Black Cat’s appearances in the issues of Amazing Spider-Man were fabulous. Additionally, she will still appear in future issues including issue 16 and “The Hunted” story arc. Black Cat is an amazing character, and for her to get a new ongoing series, is everything a fan could hope for, if it is well written. Fans will have to wait to find out how good Nao Fuji’s story of the feline antihero is.
Black Cat No. 1 releases in June 2019.
