When this book starts Hawkeye is doing his usual Hawkeye thing. But in a lot of his best stories we start to see the cracks in the facade. He sort of prides himself on being unflappable. So where does this book find Clint when it starts, in terms of his status quo, or his plans at least for the short-term – before they’re completely destroyed, presumably?Ĭlint is a funny one. That doesn't mean there won't be nods, or that Bucky and Natasha won't be stopping by, but we made this as new reader friendly as we could.Ĭlint has continuously been popping up in different stories pretty regularly of late, but he’s been through some serious stuff over the past few years (whether it’s Civil War II, West Coast Avengers, Tales of Suspense). Initially the idea had a little more direct connective tissue to the Tales of Suspense story, but we really wanted to make it stand on its own a bit more. So this has been a long time coming and I'm so excited for it to finally come out. But while we were developing it I got sucked up into the world of X-Men and the Punisher and didn't really have time to give the book the attention it needed. Hawkeye is a dream book in a lot of ways, so I threw myself into it. While I was working on Tales of Suspense with my editor Alanna Smith, I was having such a blast that I pitched this series. How long was the process of getting this new Hawkeye series off the ground? Readers can head back and read your Tales of Suspense series for some Clint/Bucky/Natasha intrigue, but was there a sort of dotted line connecting your work there to this new book – either for Marvel or you personally? RELATED: Harley Quinn Confirms Hawkeye is Her Favorite Avenger Screen Rant got the chance to speak with Rosenberg about what's in store, so read on for our full interview and preview pages below. While that might be cause for celebration, the presence of the demonically-equipped Hood, a mysterious new Ronin giving Clint a bad name, and a deadly new (mystery?) villain all suggest Hawkeye is in for a rough adventure. With several prominent roles in Marvel's Universe over the past few years - Civil War II, leading the West Coast Avengers, and crossing paths with Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier in Rosenberg's previous Tales of Suspense - Freefall #1 marks Clint's return to a solo book. The new series from writer Matthew Rosenberg and artist Otto Schmidt was announced with few details beyond Rosenberg and artist Otto Schmidt's involvement. and wondering how Clint has gotten himself into this new mess. The best archer in the world makes his solo return on January 1st, 2020, and we're getting a preview with writer Matthew Rosenberg to get fans excited for his new adventure debut. The use of the narration boxes was perfect and really took me back to the fun of when Mark Waid would use them on his run of the Flash.The days of cracking jokes at Hawkeye's expense are coming to an end, as Clint Barton is taking the spotlight for himself in Marvel's Hawkeye: Freefall. Of course there is a bit of an immature kid running around in there too, but it makes great reading. The way Clint analyzes people and situations does make me believe there is more depth to him. Clint’s writing has just the right amount of character sprinkling in some sarcasm that would make Jeremy Renner want to say these lines - Disney+, take note! The way the thought process was presented was perfect for someone who is supposed to be an eagle eye shot. Matthew Rosenberg absolutely nailed Clint’s voice - it was a perfect 10. That was some lightning in a bottle and the next couple of series just didn’t give me that vibe, so to be honest I was hesitant about this new series. I’m glad to report that this was a fun page turner and Matthew Rosenberg hit the mark with his take on Clint Barton.įirst thing that hooked me with this book is the voice. The one time I sat out a Hawkeye book happened to be Matt Fraction’s run, and boy, did I miss out. Hawkeye is back and this series is just a ton of fun! I’ve supported lots of solo Hawkeye books before and he has traditionally been a very serious character with the occasional wisecrack.
