Clint Barton finally gets the spotlight he deserves. After starring in 5 MCU films, Hawkeye is getting his own show, and we assure you that Marvel Studios’ “Hawkeye” on Disney+  is a must-watch for Hawkeye fans.

Marvel Studios’ “HAWKEYE” Review

From Comic-accurate-suits to the ascent of Kate Bishop, from Jeremy Renner with his self-deprecating humor (that only a true Hawkeye fan can truly appreciate) to the introduction of characters from the award-winning Matt Fraction/David Aja comic, this series has it all.

Marvel’s tagline “This holiday season, the best gifts come with a bow” is accurate. The world’s mightiest marksman Clint Barton (aka Hawkeye) must team up with “the world’s best archer” Kate Bishop to unravel a criminal conspiracy so that Clint can make it back to his family in time for Christmas.

Marvel Studios’ HAWKEYE brings Matt Fraction and David Aja’s 2012–2015 award-winning Hawkeye comic series to life while telling a whole new Clint Barton/Kate Bishop story.

What Works With Marvel Studios’ “HAWKEYE” – Review

The Fraction/Aja “Hawkeye” comic series has heavily inspired this new Disney+ series, in both style and storyline. From the first trailer, comic fans have been excited about the series, and rightfully so. The comic series is one of the best Marvel series out there, in part, because it’s well written with a fantastic plot intermixed with great action.

Hailee Steinfeld was born for the role of Kate Bishop. Jeremy Renner falls right back into the Clint Barton Avengers fans know and love. And the friendly banter they two of them have is like they’ve known each other forever, not likeBarton tracked her down after her saw her in the Ronin suit.

Classic Christmas music mixed with holiday lights and snow plus “Rogers: The Musical” on Broadway. Who doesn’t love iconic NYC at Christmas? Even Clint Barton shows his soft side during the holidays in NYC. Related: when do we get a full “Rogers: The Musical?” Because we’d order those tickets NOW.

Marvel Studios’ “Hawkeye” introduces many of the characters and content from the series in comic panel-accurate scenes that comic book readers will be swooning over. Hawkeye is introducing new characters to the MCU that are certain to tie into future properties and the action alone will leave the audience at the edge of their seats.

Marvel Studios’ “Hawkeye” is sure to be the gift that keeps on giving throughout the holiday season based on what we’ve seen in the first two episodes.
