Question

More Black Widow Questions: -When exactly does her ability trigger? –Does it trigger after you flip over a card in the encounter phase? –What if you “reveal” an encounter card due to the Villain stage changing during the player phase? Does it matter if the card came from the deck or discard pile?

Answer

Black Widow’s cancel ability triggers immediately after you flip a card over and before resolving its effects. Her ability works any time you reveal a card that came from the encounter deck. Her ability will not work if you reveal a card that came from somewhere besides the encounter deck (i.e. the discard pile or other out-of-play state)
