 The Black Widow
The net effect is to continually make the viewer aware of the Black Widow's body, and to both overtly and almost subliminally emphasize her sexuality; that is, the reader is made very aware of it in a few panels, and has it subtly reinforced in his/her mind in many other panels.
In the Widow's second appearance she is sent to get a crime boss named Garvey Lang; she puts on a mask and goes to a costume ball, where she dances with him.
Actually, the Widow is a veritable cornucopia of interesting bonuses, so much so that it's worth reading in and of itself, and not just for the fripperies which catch my eye with most of these strips.

 Collected Precedents of the S.C.A.: Order / Award Names
[Order of Black Widows] While I concede that the words black and widow are period words, the phrase black widow is a modern construction.
[Order of the Crystal] This is registerable since orders in period were frequently named after a physical object that was a symbol of the order, such as The Order of the Garter, The Order of the Swan, The Order of the Thistle, etc., and a crystal is a physical object.
Order names in period seem to have been based on tangible objects (such as the Order of the Golden Fleece) or on abstract concepts which members of the Order embody (such as the Legion of Honor.) The Order of the Dragon's Dream doesn't appear to fit either of these categories.
