Everyone has been telling me for the longest time that Matt Fraction's Hawkeye is one of the best modern comics written. To me, this was a big feat to accomplish. However, I can safely say this statement is correct because this was fucking awesome. The MCU adaption is based off this comic and compared to Fraction's Hawkeye, that show is an absolute disgrace.
This comic goes into Clint's backstory, his childhood in the circus, him growing up with an alcoholic father, him and his rocky relationship with his brother, and the (lowkey fucked up) sense of humor he developed to cope with these things. It also shows Clint's ability to care, and his complicated relationships with his exes (which was very well done may I add). Comic Clint is so complex, and Fraction did such a fantastic job of showing an average man with not-so-great start trying to atone and live with the things he's done.
Kate was also fantastic in this as well! In the show, Kate and her mother have a complicated relationship, but it's actually her father in the comic (which worked very much better may I add). I also adored the plotline of Kate going on her own to the West Coast and trying to individualize herself, something I thought was very much needed from the beginning of the comic.
Kate and Clint's dynamic is also genuinely some of the best I've ever read. It's not exactly father-daughter, but it's not exactly best friends either. It's just that right in the middle aspect where there is a balance between the two. Even though Clint is a stubborn asshole (Kate's words, not mine) he loves Kate so very much, and will do just about anything for her. Kate also loves Clint despite his many faults, and she even says she'll follow him anywhere. They're so fun to read together, and so marginally different from the on-screen adaption.
I'm so glad I've finally read this. From the perfect representation to the awesome characterization and storyline, this has got to come close as one of my favorite comics of all time. If you're (for some reason) weary of picking Fraction's Hawkeye after watching the MCU adaption, don't be. This is 100 times better (as most comics usually are anyways) and gives an insight into Clint and Kate that the MCU will never be able to accomplish.

This is a super fun series that has a healthy blend of action, comedy, and heart. The street-level Marvel is some really great storytelling and if you're a fan of the Hawkeye tv series then this is an essential read for you.
If you need a sales pitch then let me leave it at this, there is an entire issue told from the point of view of a dog :)
