Hawkeye

I've been loving the crap out of the new solo series for everyone's favorite archer and Avenger, Hawkeye. From the art to the writing style, the placement of word balloons, the layout, the letters page even, everything so perfectly links together to form a great impression of the lead character, Clint Barton. By far my favorite issue so far (and this is saying something) was #3.



Managing to so easily juggle character development with witty dialog, poking fun at-and simultaneously showing loving affection for- Clint's gimmick-y arrows, delivering a cracking narrative that is self contained as well as new-reader friendly. From issue to issue, this series has felt both fast paced and fun. It's firmly ingrained into Marvel continuity without feeling bogged down. I just love this series. It's definitely this month's pick for me.




Great job to everyone involved with this stellar series especially Matt Fraction, David Aja and Matt Hollingsworth.
