Im not gonna lie I felt the book was PERFECT.
It's started to slow down in quality from a 5 star book to a 4-4/12 star book, though. thats just been over the last 2 issues or so.

last two issues were a little light but still cool. This and DD are similar in the light hearted tone and characterization...probably why I enjoy both
yeah. the best way I can describe the feeling that reading Hawkeye gives me is that it feels more like I'm reading a comic book.
and I know someone ould look at what I just typed and be like "but they're ALL comic books!"...
I dunno, man. That's the only way I can wrap my head around it that makes sense.
The art, pacing, writing... the back and forth between him and Kate Bishop... the situations they find themselves in...
It feels more like a "comic book" than the greater majority of comics do.
Speaking of Hawkeye, has anybody else noticed that since the Avengers movie, they seem hellbent on making Hawkeye this super spy mercenary SHIELD operative... more like his Ultimate counterpart?
They had him in the series with that damn videotape, he's in Secret Avengers doing stuff for SHIELD getting fukked over by nikkalaus Fury, now in Age of Ultron he thinks he's Ollie Queen from the "Arrow" TV series, killing folks left and right.
When they asked Bendis about it in an interview, dude was like "It just seems like this is the kind of environment that Hawkeye would be used to... that war torn, back against the wall, "kill or be killed" type of environment." (paraphrased)
.......since when, though?

I like the Age of Ultron already

I thought that was fakewhat characters will be in those books .
Don't know yet but Gail Simone gave an interview where she said that a "benched female character" will make her return in the book.
Since never. Hawkeye would be more likely to start his version of Heroes for Hire than he would be to join a spy organization.
The total revamp of his characterization is one of the reasons why I can't get into his book.
The dude is supposed to be the sarcastic, sometimes sad sack every man hero not some bootleg James Bond who takes on spy missions and has every woman in the Marvel U flinging their panties at him.

His book is him as a sarcastic sometimes sad sack hero. He's more so a guy who's usually in over his head ( even against local hoods) and is easily flustered by complex social situations (" Everyone calm down for a sex....SEC!!!!) He can't even get his neighbors to say his name right

616 Hawkeye is lame compared to Ultimate Hawkeye
same with 616 Nick Fury and that fakkit Marcus Johnson/Nick Fury Jr
I think the movies kinda based them off the ultimate universe
