Since Ryan's still MIA, and the new HAWKEYE TV show just dropped on Disney+, we thought we'd revisit an oldie but a goodie - our 2020 episode covering Matt Fraction & David Aha's HAWKEYE run from 2015 is a fun - often funny - character-driven romp, with beautiful, minimalist sepia art - and features more than just a LOT of Eastern European gangsters saying BRO. It features not one, but TWO Hawkeyes. Are there spoilers for the TV show? Who knows, probably / not, but because we read this COMIC way back when and never really talk about things like "plot" or "characters" - you should be good to go on this trip down memory lane. Hell, it's already Black Friday, so you should just go on and buy it already so you can be a cranky old man like us and watch the show comparing it to the comic, which you totally will have finished reading first. You're welcome SO - you may  know Hawkeye, aka Clint Barton, as the avenging archer from some very popular movies. But while this is just about a guy with a bow and arrows - it's anything BUT the stuff of Hollywood blockbusters. Often described as "Hawkeye's day off" - this series makes it painfully obvious that Clint's just a flawed dude just trying to do the right thing, with varying degrees of success. Basically, his life is a mess. Clint is joined by his newfound pal Kate Bishop - a young whippersnapper who’s now also assumed the mantle of  Hawkeye - and his newly adopted dog Arrow. He’s also supported by a who’s who of ex-lady friends, a cast of working class neighbors who like their rooftop grill-outs, and more than a few lady frinds (a work-wife AND an ex-wife). Throw in the occasional super-criminals and evil spies, and you’ve got a real FUN romp across Brookyln, Madripoor, and Los Angeles.
