Storyline Edit. Former Avenger Clint Barton has a seemingly simple mission: get back to his family for Christmas. Maybe with the help of Kate Bishop, a year-old archer with dreams of becoming a Super Hero.

The two are forced to work together when a presence from Barton's past threatens to derail far more than the festive spirit. Add content advisory. Did you know Edit. If anything, Kate chose the Hawkeye name out of convenience. His abilities most directly correspond to hers, and since Clint was dead at the time, it's not like he was around to complain about trademark violations.

Clint did eventually return to life and restart his superhero career first as Ronin and then as Hawkeye again. That kicked off an uneasy alliance between Clint and Kate that's persisted ever since, with both characters reluctantly sharing the Hawkeye name.

Clint is also sometimes jokingly referred to as "Hawkguy," just to keep things simple. As Hawkguy, Clint is both a mentor and an annoying older brother figure to Kate. As much as Kate looks up to him, she's also come to realize he's not the shining paragon of heroism she made him out to be. More and more, Kate has found herself putting distance between herself and her fellow Hawkeye, most recently by heading to California and seeking her own superhero destiny.

Despite not having powers and focusing as much on detective work as superhero missions, Kate Bishop has developed a few intense rivalries during her brief career. Her own father, Derek Bishop, was revealed to be a powerful crime lord with ties to other big-name Marvel villains. One of those villains, Madame Masque, has essentially developed into Kate's arch-nemesis over the years.

The two have a bitter rivalry going, even though they share a lot in common as daughters of wealthy, evil fathers. Kate has also tussled with some of the biggest villains in the Marvel Universe thanks to her membership in the Young Avengers. She's been involved in more than one battle between the Kree and Skrull empires, and she and her teammates even fought Doctor Doom in a story called Avengers: The Children's Crusade.

Hawkeye and Hawkguy are pretty equal opportunity when it comes to making enemies. However, despite Avengers: Endgame showing Clint training Lila in the art of archery, it's now clear that Kate will be introduced as a completely separate character.

Marvel previously indicated the series would take place during the five years between Infinity War and Endgame, showing more of Clint's time as Ronin. Whether he likes it or not, Clint must school Kate in the ways of being a superhero archer. Will the mantle of Hawkeye pass from one generation to the next?

The first instance actually saw Clint resign on the grounds of wanting to prove he did not need a team to be effective - only to almost immediately join the Defenders [41] for several adventures including opposing the Avengers [42]! He also ended up in the s where he befriended Western hero Two-Gun Kid and with the help of the Avengers, defeated Kang. During the course of another department from the team, Barton became a security chief for Cross Technological Enterprises.

While at Cross, he met Jorge Latham , an engineer who would design the Sky-Cycle as Barton's personal conveyance when he was incapacitated with a broken leg.

Shortly thereafter, Clint also met and eloped with Bobbi Morse, a. Hawkeye and Mockingbird defeated Crossfire, but Barton suffered permanent hearing damage due to the ultrasounds [45] and for a long time was forced to wear a hearing aid. Eventually, Franklin Richards would cure him of this injury when Clint was among heroes restored from an alternate reality. With the West Coast Avengers.

Upon his return to the Avengers with his new bride, Barton was appointed to chair a new second team of Avengers based on the West Coast by then-chairman, the Vision. Hawkeye and Mockingbird acted as the guiding force behind the team. Barton hired his old friend from Cross Technologies, Jorge Latham, to act as the on-staff mechanic and to build a new fleet of sky-cycles.

Hank Pym helped the team in a civilian capacity as the resident scientist. One of the western team's adventures scattered them across time. While Hawkeye and most of the others were stranded in ancient Egypt , Mockingbird was in the Old West, held captive, and rendered amnesiac by Phantom Rider Lincoln Slade , posing as her lover. In a mountaintop battle between the two after her escape, Barbara allowed Slade to fall to his death.

The couple separated after Clint learned of all this through the vengeful Rider's spirit. Morse, along with Tigra and Moon Knight , left the team and briefly formed a splinter group.

After that group failed, [49] Mockingbird proved instrumental in consulting on a multinational plot to abduct and dismantle the Vision for his near "benevolent" takeover of the world although he aborted the plan before anyone was truly harmed. When Bobbi realized the plot wasn't just a "worst-case scenario" and was actually being put into action, she returned to warn the Whackos. Clint quit the team after being tossed aside like this, and he and Mockingbird ended up in Wisconsin training the unofficial franchise team, the Great Lakes Avengers.

Hawkeye later returned to the West Coast branch after they reorganized under United Nations jurisdiction, although Bobbi remained with the Great Lakes team. On one mission, both teams were caught in a war in between the Kree and Shi'ar Empire. Barton was initially relegated to remain on Earth as part of the "rear guard" team due to a "lack of raw power. After Iron Man, against orders, led a group of Avengers to execute the Kree Supreme Intelligence , Barton was important in helping Captain America regain confidence in his leadership.

It would later be revealed, though, that the " Mockingbird " he was rebuilding a relationship with was in actuality a deep-cover Skrull sleeper agent. On one of the AWC's last mission, the team began an otherworldly trek to rescue the captured "Mockingbird" from the hands of Satannish the Supreme and Mephisto. During their escape, Mephisto killed "Mockingbird". Hawkeye was on leave from the team mourning for Mockingbird, and wasn't involved in the decision.

After Mockingbird's apparent death, Hawkeye became a solo agent for a period of time. During which, Barton was commissioned to train a group of rebels known as the Shadows along with Sundance and Striker. As War Machine, Rhodes investigated and was surprised to see Hawkeye among the rebels. A government-backed group led by US Agent also arrived adding further confusion between the "Brothers in Arms".

The three were able to stop the conflict and were confronted by the mysterious Advisor. Hawkeye later returned to the Avengers and was part of the team when they fought Onslaught and was sent alongside them to Counter-Earth by Franklin Richards to save his life while the rest of his world believed him to have died.

Hawkeye as a hero and an Avenger. When the Avengers returned to their own world he continued serving as a member though he had frequent disagreements with the team. Hawkeye initially posed as the criminal Dreadknight to meet the team before formally introducing himself and his intentions. He also became romantically involved with Moonstone. As a leader, Hawkeye led the Thunderbolts both alongside and sometimes against his former teammates in the Avengers.

Eventually re-joining the Avengers, Clint began a dallying affair with the Wasp , causing tension with her sometime lover, Hank Pym. When the Scarlet Witch had her breakdown that resulted in the breakup of the Avengers, Barton perished on an exploding Kree ship created by her crazed state. The Scarlet Witch did not act again until sometime later when she altered time and space on a universal level: changing Earth's history to that of the House of M , where mutants had become the rulers and human beings the oppressed minority.

Barton was very much alive in this remade world and affiliated with an underground human resistance opposing the general mutant supremacy. Like all of the other inhabitants on the planet, though, Clint retained no memory of his previous life. This changed, however, after X-Man Emma Frost restored his memories, hoping to recruit him to a direct opposition of reawakened heroes against Magneto and the Scarlet Witch.

While this rebellious network incorporated more of his original Avenger teammates, Barton was at the time reluctant, preoccupied with the disquieting notion of his recent demise among his returned memories. Eventually confronting and failing to kill Wanda Maximoff with one of his arrows, he brought up their shared history as teammates as well as his former romantic feelings for her, angrily demanding to know why she ended his life. This encounter did not last long as Clint's heightened emotional state renewed Wanda's own mental instability, causing her to once again erase him from existence.

Wanda then restored reality to its original state, only to remove the mutant genome from millions on Earth , remaking them as powerless mainline humans. Clint awoke inside the ruins of Avengers Mansion confused by the events. Leaving his "Hawkeye" wardrobe and equipment there, he set out to locate the Scarlet Witch, seeking Doctor Strange for assistance. Strange was the only person in the world to know of his revival at this time.

Clint found her living like a gypsy in a small European mountain village. Spending the night with her, Barton learned she had no memory of her previous life and was evidently depowered. He left at dawn the next morning, heeding the warning of Doctor Strange not to attempt to revive her memories and possibly worsen her mental condition. After the apparent assassination of Captain America, Iron Man approached Clint about taking up the shield. They convinced him that wearing Steve Rogers' costume and wielding his shield would be wrong, and he allowed the unregistered young heroes to go free.

Clint Barton as Ronin , the masterless Samurai. Barton revealed himself as the current user of the Ronin guise, joining the New Avengers. There, both they and the Mighty Avengers came across many heroes from years past including a " Hawkeye " and a " Mockingbird ". This "Hawkeye" was discovered to be a Skrull, but after Clint questioned "Mockingbird" of her miscarriage, he truly believed her to be his late wife.

Teammates Luke Cage and Wolverine were more suspicious. This was justified later, when Clint was proven wrong by Mr. Fantastic , whose technology forced the Skrulls to revert to their true forms.

Clint did not hesitate in shooting the Skrull Mockingbird impostor dead with one of Black Widow's firearms. Enraged by such deception, Barton became more dedicated to opposing the invading Skrulls without any second thoughts about killing them. During the final battle with the Skrulls alongside dozens of superheroes, he used his old bow and quiver of trick arrows dropped by the wounded Kate Bishop to kill several Super-Skrulls and to severely wound Queen Veranke , who orchestrated the entire invasion while posing as Spider-Woman.

After the fighting, it was discovered that the people replaced by the Skrulls were alive and well, including Bobbi. Reuniting with his wife, they were the first to be invited by Barnes to his Brooklyn safe house, offering it as a new base of operations for the fugitive New Avengers.

The team's first order of business became a search and rescue mission for the infant daughter of fellow teammate Luke Cage, abducted during the final Skrull conflict. Clint was infuriated at Norman Osborn 's rise to power- especially at the allegedly "former" villain's own Avengers group, secretly composed of super villains publicly masquerading in familiar heroic identities.

Wanting to dissuade Osborn and his group from further sullying the Avengers' name and legacy, Clint and his New Avengers attempted to lure them into battle at the Hellfire Club 's former headquarters.

Instead, they were opposed by the Hood 's crime syndicate , sent in place of the new " Dark Avengers. Deducing Osborn's corrupt politics, Clint went to the media exposing his identity, denouncing the Dark Avengers, and revealing Osborn's ties to the Hood. His final words were a message encouraging the American public to resist Osborn's regime. This did not sit well with Clint's teammates as none of them were comfortable with him starting a public flame war without their consent, growing concerned for their general safety.

Despite this negative feedback, Clint remained on good terms with his friends. Aside from the New Avengers' missions, Clint's relationships with his individual teammates continued to develop. He was also particularly happy to be working with "classic" Avengers teammate and friend, Ms. Marvel Carol Danvers - especially coming off prior tensions with her former pro-registration Mighty Avengers team. He also came to trust James Barnes, gradually accepting him as the new Captain America as well as his valued friend and ally.

Clint also learned that Bobbi did not consider him her husband any longer, having had intentions to divorce him just prior to her abduction years before, although they somewhat successfully revived their relationship.
