Sometimes I thought the characterization was a bit off, but overall very funny and very unique premise, my only complain is that it felt like part 1 of 2 also I’m happy to say I understood the references

overall enjoyable!!! the plot is good and clint's character is good and the art is simply gorgeous so i might be more biased. i feel like the ending was sort of anticlimactic though??? idk it was just lacking since there wasn't really a complete resolution and ur just left wondering what happens next with clint's life all torn up

Hawkeye is back to his well-intentioned but absolutely chaotic style of street-level avenging as he sets his sights on an empowered crime lord. Creating as many problems as he solves and putting himself at odds with friends, lovers, and allies, Clint's sincere plans will need all the luck and skill he can muster to succeed. With plenty of other Marvel characters involved on the sidelines, Hawkeye: Freefall is an entertaining and wild ride through the criminal underworld. Despite plenty of humor and shenanigans, Clint's secrets are catching up with him and the consequences of his quest for justice may end up being more severe than he can possibly anticipate. With strong storytelling and great art, Rosenberg and Schmidt bring Hawkeye crashing back to the page for a bold new adventure.

Really interesting, twisty plotline in this one. And I loved the art. Whole thing was just a bit too dark for my personal taste, but I would recommend it to people who are into that...

An interesting story and a darker aspect of Clint that was interesting to see! As a new Hawkeye/Marvel reader it left me with a lot of questions, but was enjoyable nonetheless.

There's a lot to love in Hawkeye: Freefall from Rosenberg's obvious knowledge and love for the Marvel universe to Schmidt's art--literally everything about Schmidt's art from the style to the bold and saturated colors...I will now read anything he illustrates, and I mean anything. The story is a little convoluted (comics...what you gonna do?), the ending feels like we're walking out of a movie before the final scene finishes, and there are questionable narrative choices (why create a neat character that other comic writers could utilize later only to kill them off like that when the injury on its own served the purpose for the plot progression??), but it's simply a fun time. Hawkeye fans will love the little nods to other Marvel characters and how Clint interacts with each as well as the way Clint is self-deprecating, a big doofus, and notably kind-hearted. Rosenberg doesn't dumb Clint down in the way he did in Tales of Suspense (picking his nose?? Come on...), and this refreshed me this time around.
I don't think I'll ever be fully happy with a comic that forgets to draw Clint's hearing aid at times or one that casually forgets he needs one when it would impair the narrative or require an extra panel or page to nod to it, but I genuinely enjoyed the occasional small bits about his hearing impairment (like the snide recording from Bullseye). Overall, it was money worth spent. Maybe I'm just too harsh because I'll be on a Matt Fraction/David Aja high until the day they lay me in a cold, damp grave, but who can say?
