Since getting marvel Unlimited, I've been able to keep up with some series that I'm curious about, but not £3.19 curious about. I'm keeping an eye on Spider-woman, Captain Marvel, Thor, Black Cat, Black Widow, World War She-Hluk (It is bum) just started Dark Ages, and am waiting for the Death of Doctor Strange.
I've also been prompted by the Disney+ series to go back and check out some Hawkeye. Not the fraction/Aja/Wu stuff, that's in an omnibus hardcover on my bookcase, but some other minis. And so we arrive at Hawkeye Freefall, which has in common with the TV show "Somebody else is wearing the Ronin suit, and it's making things difficult for Clint"
It's by Matthew Rosenberg, and I remember the community having Strong feelings on him, and not usually ones that were positive. I've not read any of his other stuff. Was he the guy who killed off tonnes of minor X-men on his run?
I'm pretty mixed on Hawkeye: Freefall. On one hand, there are a few good moments, and on the other it works quite hard to detonate a lot of what I've enjoyed in other runs. Clint is just an arse who makes life difficult for other people, his motivations don't stand up to much scrutiny and having made life shitter/shorter for everybody else, he's mainly unfussed.
However, I did enjoy ( the cameo appearance by Power Dad, Luke Cage )
