HAWKEYE RETURNS IN A BRAND NEW SERIES!
When a mysterious and ruthless new Ronin starts tearing a destructive path through the city, suspicion immediately falls on Hawkeye, but Clint has more to worry about than who’s wearing his old costume. After a clash with the Hood ends badly, Hawkeye gives himself a new mission that will place him in the crosshairs of one of New York’s most dangerous villains.
Hawkeye’s mission and Ronin’s secret plans will set them on a collision course that only one of them will walk away from.
De lui, je n’identifie que l’arc des X-Men avec Havok (que j’ai lu après avoir découvert ton avis) et le récent one-shot de Star Wars avec le cyborg Valance. Et dans les deux cas, j’ai trouvé son boulot plutôt bien.
Je sais qu’il a produit beaucoup plus de choses, et que ceci n’est qu’un aspect de son travail, mais disons que ça nourrit un a priori positif.
Oh, j’aime bien ce qu’il fait.
J’ai apprécié ses douze numéros d’Uncanny X-Men, et ses trois épisodes de tie-ins à War of the Realms.
Il écrit plutôt bien.
Mais il tuait au moins un X-Man par épisode ; vraiment. Du coup, c’est devenu usant.

RONIN RETURNS…BUT WHO’S BEHIND THE MASK?
ISSUE #1 – When a mysterious and ruthless new Ronin starts tearing a destructive path through the city, suspicion immediately falls on Hawkeye, but Clint has more to worry about than who’s wearing his old costume. After a clash with the Hood ends badly, Hawkeye gives himself a new mission that will place him in the crosshairs of one of New York’s most dangerous villains. Hawkeye’s mission and Ronin’s secret plans will set them on a collision course that only one of them will walk away from. Fan favorite Clint Barton returns in a brand new series from Matthew Rosenberg (UNCANNY X-MEN, THE PUNISHER) and Otto Schmidt (Green Arrow).
ISSUE #2 – WHO THE %$&@ IS RONIN? The mystery surrounding the volatile new Ronin deepens as his actions begin to destabilize the seedy underbelly of New York City. Hawkeye finds himself caught in the middle of an increasingly dangerous turf war between Ronin and the Hood. Though Clint may not approve of Ronin’s methods, it’s hard to argue with his results. And pretty soon, he may need to choose a side that his allies in the Avengers won’t be happy about…

• As things around him are getting more dangerous, Clint Barton is being pushed to make some tough, and probably really bad, decisions.
• Meanwhile the mysterious new Ronin is waging war against The Hood and Hawkeye is caught in the middle of it.
• The Web of lies our Friendly Neighborhood archer finds himself caught in will have Spectacular ramifications when he is confronted by our Amazing secret guest star…
• (It’s Spider-Man. Shhh.)
Description: Daredevil tips Hawkeye off to the formation of a new task force. They have one mission: to stop the dangerous new Ronin before he tears the city apart. Clint joins up, but he can’t help but notice that Ronin gets results. Whose side is he really on? And as Hawkeye’s own hunt for the Hood intensifies, he’s about to find himself in the sights of one of his most dangerous foes of all time.
Marvel aurait donc du vendre le titre comme une mini-série si c’était prévu depuis le début. Là, pas de #6 (of 6), pas de « final issue » dans les sollicitations de mai…
Rosenberg (sur twitter) :
To be clear, I pitched HAWKEYE FREEFALL as a short series. We are 100% telling the story we set out to tell. Nothing was cancelled. You are getting the comic we planned from my first pitch document.
I’m sorry it was shorter than some of you seem to have wanted, but some stories are made to end. This was built to end before it began. I’m really proud of the work we’re all doing on the book and really happy Marvel let us do it.
