The Absolute Best Hawkeye Story

Hawkeye on Disney Plus is well underway. Bringing back Jeremey Renner in as Clint Barton and introducing Hayley Steinfeld as Kate Bishop it actually borrows from one of the best comic book runs of all time. Here we review My Life As A Weapon by Matt Fraction, David Aja and Javier Pulido in our monthly Comic Book Club over at BigSandwich.co but with more pictures and animations of the thing we're talking about.

I don't read comics but I've always liked the MCU Hawkeye, and I'm baffled he's not liked by more of the fanbase. I like his sardonic attitude and I think he's the perfect grounding for the superpowered characters. I guess once his TV series is over he's probably out of the MCU, since he'd already retired once.

[@VolerHock]

I feel like people enjoy Hawkeye, but dislike Jeremy Renner.

[@qwertyferix]

Aha!

[@jackelproductions7035]

I think the greatest strength of the Hawkeye run is how honest and purely sincere it is. The fact that Clint Barton is just essentially a run of the mill, clumsy normal guy who happens to have training as a superhero and a bunch of arrows really highlights the human in him, the comic issues show that unlike most superheroes Clint Barton makes arrogant and selfish decisions (Highlighted by how every issue starts out with, “Okay, I know this looks bad- CRASH!”) and how the series just journeys through all of those mistakes along with his relationship to Kate Bishop is phenomenal and makes this essentially in the top five best Marvel comic runs from the last decade and for me the one I would use to exemplify Marvel’s creative potential going forward.

[@coss1]

Calling Hawkeye a "pretty good shot" is the understatement of understatements. He doesn't have any superpowers, but his aim is almost supernatural.

[@bluesdjben]

This run is truly awesome, especially for how simple but expressive and iconic the artwork is, but I have to add that the Kate Bishop run by Kelly Thompson that spun off from it is one of my all-time favorites. (I comment this everywhere because people should read it. It's really damn fun.)

[@mattdoesntknowwhattodowith5760]

It’s sooo good

[@jasonschmucker]

There's a surprisingly good Deadpool vs Hawkeye series that captures the tone of Matt Fraction's style really well and mixes in a tolerable amount of Deadpool's antics.

[@arthand7672]

That one is so good. "I'm a hawkeye that shoots deadpool's at people" and "I'm sorry I can't hear you I'm wearing a mask" are two of my favorite lines from the collections I have where deadpool teams up with other characters.. and all in all I think that might be my favorite of them. Him and spiderman have some good moments too though

[@LordSeth-hf8ew]

yeah, i wonder of all the mcu adaptations whos the closest too the actual comic story

[@Emoney-hy2kn]

@@LordSeth-hf8ew Probably Winter Soldier it cuts out a central antagonist named Alexander Lukin and since they aged up Bucky in First Avenger it changes some of his backstory that occurred in the comics but the central conflict between Steve and him is really close. Most of the added stuff is with Hydra infiltrating Shield and the addition of characters like Alexander Pierce. Plus they remove the cosmic cube from the final battle in the film.

[@bruced09]

@Snehil Shrey pretty sure Hawkeye isn’t with his family very much, which is maybe a character flaw? But he also clearly doesn’t view himself as on the same level as the other avengers, and probably has depression or something similar thanks to being Ronin/the blip. He’s got some flaws, but until now we haven’t focused on him really enough to see them very well.

[@PseudoFiction]

one of my favorite parts of the Fraction/Aja run is that they show how Clint has been in relationships with or married to very impressive women, who just out class him is pretty much every way, and he so very much disappoints ALL of them, which is baffling and hilarious. It even carried over to the recent Freefall short series with him dating the Night Nurse

[@bruced09]

@Snehil Shrey Go watch Avengers EMH, that Hawkeye is pretty great imo

[@AJeziorski1967]

I've always seen the MCU versions of the Avengers as hybrids of the standard comic versions and the characters we saw in Mark Millar's 'The Ultimates'. I mean, Samuel L Jackson's Nick Fury is 100% Ultimate Fury, and there have been plenty of things in the movies which are clearly from those comics - throwing Bruce Banner out of a helicopter to make him transform, for instance, or movie Captain America's uniform, which is very much 'Ultimate' Cap (but minus that version's less savoury character traits). So Ultimate Hawkeye, as I recall, was simply a very skilled assassin, a black-ops sniper who was an amazing shot with whatever weapon came to hand. That's how I've always seen MCU Clint: a SHIELD field agent who got roped in to fill out the ranks of the Avengers, much like Black Widow. He likes the bow because it's stealthy (and because of the trick arrows). I mean, I can't imagine Nick Fury sending a guy who's basically just a circus trick-shot to bring in a Soviet-trained assassin like Natasha.

[@AJeziorski1967]

@Snehil Shrey Heartiy disagree there. I love the first two volumes of The Ultimates - really interesting take on those characters. But then they handed volume three to Jeph Loeb, and that was compete garbage.

[@naxotogo]

@@AJeziorski1967 yeee the third one is a big yikes

[@SpoonDude]

Don't forget, Ultimate Clint had a family just like the MCU version would go on to have. I'm pretty sure Whedon has been known to be a fan of the Ultimates so it makes sense to me.

[@arthand7672]

I feel like the MCU will sometimes use the looks of the ultimate versions of the characters but very little of the backstory. They probably looked at multiple costumes the character had worn over the years for inspiration... and the ultimate universe had already modernized many of the classic designs.

I really enjoyed the solo Pizza Dog story. Don't remember which number issue it was, but it's from this run (Fraction/Aja). Dave Aja's a bloody legend, he really aced it with his, Brubaker and Fraction's Iron Fist run back in '07 (I think). Anyhoo, Pizza Dog! No dialogue, totally from PD's viewpoint. Good, old fashioned storytelling. Go, Pizza Dog! 🐾🍕

Easily one of the best comic runs in recent history

[@bannedinallston]

The Fraction Hawkeye run is one of my favorite series, a lot of Shane Black, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, banter-y knockabout crime/noir vibes. It's a shame that not a lot of the reinvented Hawkeye bled thru to the MCU Hawkeye til very recently.

Has Hawkeye and Bullseye ever fought i feel like that would be a good fight

[@Pol-Man]

They did. In 2020s Hawkeye mini series "Hawkeye Freefall" Clint has an epic fight with Bullseye. Maybe they fought before since it is implied they know each other. Edit: Ohh yeah and in Old Man Hawkeye they fight again. Since Daredevil is dead Hawkeye is the next best thing to an arch nemesis for Bullseye

[@comicking428]

@@Pol-Man There was also this Marvel Generations where successors travel back in time to meet their younger predecessors, and there was one issue where Kate ended up on an island where Clint was battling the world's greatest marksmen, Bullseye was one of them.

[@Mark_Bowen]

In addition to what's been said above, Bullseye actually *was* Hawkeye for a couple years during the Dark Reign storyline. (Tl;dr for Dark Reign: The world's upside down, bad guys are installed as the official government-sponsored Avengers while the real Avengers become outlaws, and each of the villains adopts the superhero alias of an actual Avenger - the Scorpion gets to be Spider-Man, and the Green Goblin becomes a cross of Captain America and Iron Man, which is the origin of Iron Patriot.) I don't remember if Bullseye and Clint fought much during that period, though, beyond big group battles.

Hawkeye: Freefall is also brilliant

In the comics he is interesting and you care about the character .in the MCU he isn't interested and if he died in any of movies he been in no one would really care.

[@pinoyjona]

The two Hawkeye story been one of my favorite run and I feel like I’m in the minority of getting so much joy that the MCU Hawkeye series is basing off the comic. I mean, look, they adapted bridge scene from the comics to the show! Clint outside being an Avenger and teaming up with Kate was the reason why I started to really enjoy Hawkeye. I even like Clint’s simple tee, sneakers, sunglasses, and cuts. My older brother grew up in the 90s so he was more into the classic superhero suit, so even then, I felt I’m in the minority. KZbinrs I casually watch are hating on the series the series is more about Kate and not Clint or as they put it, “A Hawkeye story not focusing on Hawkeye,” using the same issues with Rey from Star Wars and the 13th Doctor from Doctor Who. Even the comments are bringing up that Disney is trying to make the “Mary Sues are replacing male Superheroes.” I wonder how will they react that Kate is actually a Hawkeye as well? I won’t be surprise if some of them were the ones who never realize She-Hulk existed before and were tweeting that Hulk is gonna be replaced.

[@thread6971]

I love this run. Probably my favorite modern comic runs before Chip Zdarsky’s Daredevil

[@jasonwells8745]

Why the hell hasn't Hawkeye souped-up one of those Chautari Chariots from Avengers 1 and made it the Hawkeye Sky-Cycle yet it would make him so much more formidable, plus then he would have a place to keep all the arrows he needs for battle.

I’m not gonna watch this yet, because I think I’m getting the Fraction run for Christmas, but I do support this

[@ellaisplotting]

This was my first and favourite comic, I didn't even notice Hawkeye in the Avengers films but I was reading a fan fiction series where he wasn't even a main character, but he was so fun! The author reccomended this run as her inspiration for his characterisation, and I was hooked 😆 Sidenote no shade to Lawrence, but I did find it ironic that the part of the video describing David Aja's iconic distinctive style focused almost entirely on panels drawn by guest artists 😆 they really threw me off when I was reading them, and I'm never as fond of beady eyed Clint as I am little disgruntled sketch Clint.

That's so odd. On the Marvel Unlimited app it's listed as My Life As a Weapon, but it appears so be exactly the same just the other versions have a blank space under the title with no subtitle. No mention of it being called My Life As a Weapon on the wiki either so I guess it seems to be unique to Australia at least. No clue why.

@@whatswiththisnewhandlesthing UK has the subtitle too as far as I'm aware. Hang on- I got my copy from New York. Now I'm confused 😆

[@cheshirecandy]

That's because "Hawkeye Vol. 1: My Life As A Weapon" is the name of the trade paperback, which collects the first 5 issues of the Fraction/Aja comics run. Vol. 2 is called "Little Hits" and Vol. 3 is "L.A Woman", and finally Vol. 4 "Rio Bravo". Some people might colloquially refer to the entire run as 'My Life As A Weapon' to specify that they're talking about the Fraction/Aja (et al.) Hawkguy comics - I myself sometimes do ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

One thing that doesn't sit right with me on the hawkeye character in general is that there is no logical reason on why he uses bow and arrow. Ironman: bulletproof walking WMD, capt america: indestructible shield, hawkeye: trick arrows..? Most of the enemy is alien or made of metal, why use weapon that's outdated by hundreds of years...

[@Pol-Man]

Yeah. If I recall correctly he once said that a bow and arrow is so much more versityle then guns. I mean he does sick trick shots and his arrow aren't to be laughed at. Plus I think it is also a symbolik thing. A gun is a weapon of a murderer or a thug, bow and arrow not so much.
