The sequel to My Life as a Weapon. Once again follows Clint and Kate, this time as they uncover a mystery project at Hydra which consists of deformed little kids. It also flashes back and forth to Clint’s time as a kid in the circus, with his abusive father. It leads into the idea that you can’t change the past. It formed you into who you are today.

I look forward to issue #2. I really enjoyed the banter between the Hawkeye's and the time jumps. The artwork was kind of not my style though.

The jury is still out, but I'm reminding myself that, although it will definitely different than Fraction and Aja's, Lemire and Perez's run can be great. Issue 1 is promising, mostly due to the beautiful flashbacks, which, to me clearly show Lemire's influence in whimsical, melancholy mood and coloring, even if he's the writer, and not the writer-artist (as he frequently is). The flashbacks provide a good foundation for Clint's background, and the action keeps the attention, although I could've done with more banter. The "cliffhanger" at the end does make me want to find out what Hydra's up to!

Starting new Hawkeye is like dealing with The Doctor regenerating. Of course you miss and are nostalgic for the old one; but you quickly realize at it's core it's the same Hawkeye you know and love, just different. I'll always have a special place in my heart for Fraction and Aja's Hawkeye, but I'm ready for this new chapter. Bring it!

The 2015 reboot of Hawkeye changes the structure of the storytelling so there are extended flashbacks to Clint Barton's past. This is a neat device and executed well with the art that plays out through this run of the series, even if the plot is less tight that before.

Tengo que admitir que no he terminado la serie anterior y de todas formas estoy leyendo esta porque puedo.
La serie anterior fue genial e hizo que le agarrara cariño a Clint y adorara más a Kate. Para hablar con sinceridad, creí que esta serie nunca tendría un buen inicio pero me he equivocado. No ha sido nada de otro mundo pero suena interesante.
El arte es bastante bueno e innovador y los colores se usan de una forma bastante original, pero aun así no es algo muy impresionante pero tampoco es nada aburrido. Creo que va a ser muy difícil que me guste exageradamente como el arte de la anterior pero no me hace perder las esperanzas por ahora.

(4/5 stars)
I'm hopeful. This is just a taste of what's to come and I'm apparently a bit of a sucker of Hawkeye everything (Though it seems weird that this is out when #22 of Fraction/Aja's run isn't yet).
Loved the watercolor for the flashbacks, though, and I'm looking forward to what comes next.
(However - who dropped the all on the Hawkeye(s) pun that could be made?)
