What do you get when you take an Avenger and pull him away from the fancy costumes and over-the-top fights of the superhero world? Well as it turns out, you get one of the best damn Marvel comic books of all time. In this episode, we go over the final installment of the trade paper backs that collected the Fraction and Aja Hawkeye run. Even if you don't like superheroes, even if you don't like the Avengers, even if you don't like that dude Clint Barton, it really don't matter. The book is so well written and illustrated that it could charm even the most ardent of superhero haters. And how does it do that? Well listen to the episode, ya goof!

This episode is part 1 of the Hawkeye coverage as I breakdown and discuss some of the book's finer points. Next week, we'll dive further into the comic's content during the interview for part 2.
