Clint Barton, a.k.a. hauwxKeve is one of the two greatest sharpshooters known to man. He’s also an Avenger. Kate Bishop, a.k.a. hawxeyve is the other one. (Some might say the better one.) This is what they do when they do what they do best. Following a disagreement during a secret mission for $.H.I.E.L.D., Kate and Clint have found it hard to nock arrows for even the most routine of missions. With a rift growing between them, the future looks bleak for Team Hawkeye.
