• California's supposed sunshine and smiles, right? Well, apparently the "City of Angels" missed the memo...
•  Just when Kate Bishop thought she'd cracked this campus stalker case wide open, the crap hit the proverbial fan and now EVERYONE at Venice Beach has it out for her.

    Y'all gonna bow down to greatness, man. Thompson and Romero are putting in all the paperwork to get through customs so you can't deny how hard this series goes. Read Full Review

    Comics: The Gathering - Aaron Reese Feb 7, 2017

    Even if you’re upset with the direction that Marvel is going with its steady stream of big events and replacement characters, this is an excellent series to pounce on. It has a charismatic main character who is written well from a female perspective and has a strong supporting cast (even if they’re thinly developed thus far). It’s excellent. Read Full Review

    Kate Bishop deserves a strong creative team, and thus far Thompson, Romero and Bellaire are delivering. Read Full Review

    AIPT - David Brooke Feb 1, 2017

    Hawkeye is a special kind of book that feels like a hangout with your best friend. It's fun, well paced, and good comics. The character might be too chipper, but I'll take it. Read Full Review

    The stakes feel a little low, but they're telling a good story, and that's always got to be a team's first priority. Read Full Review

    Henchman-4-Hire - Sean Ian Mills Feb 4, 2017

    The new Hawkeye comic is a lot of fun to read, both for the character work and the actual mystery being built. It feels like a low key comic, but that is clearly part of its charm. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez Feb 7, 2017

    Kelly Thompson and Leonardo Romero are hitting their stride with Hawkeye #3. The writing continues to be sharp as Thompson establishes Kate Bishop's supporting cast alongside with the growing conflict with TBC. It all comes together with Romero's strong artwork that is a perfect fit for this series as he makes the street-level world come to life. This all creates greater interest for where the series goes in the future as it is quickly becoming one of Marvel's best ongoing comic books. Read Full Review

    Major Spoilers - Matthew Peterson Feb 12, 2017

    As a fan of the Fraction Hawkeye, I am happy to relate that this book, while different in tone and intent, keeps a lot of the "barely functional, yet kind of brilliant indy ploy" nature of that book intact, even with a different, and kind of more competent Hawkeye as our lead. Hawkeye #3 is a well-done mystery story that even works with modern technology in play, with lovely art and some truly excellent dialogue and writing. Read Full Review

    All-Comic - Milo Milton Jefferies Feb 6, 2017

    Effectively resolving last issues cliffhanger, Hawkeye #3 is well-paced, well-plotted, and perfectly builds upon the interesting mystery. Thanks to the focus on Kates character via her thought captions, everything really pays off, putting Kates abilities to the forefront in an effective way to tell an interesting story that you wont be able to put down. Everything about this book has been excellent so far and if you're not reading Kelly Thompson's Hawkeye then you really should be, because based on the strength of this issue as well as the previous three, things are only going to get even better from here.
