Welcome to the Oblivion Bar where the first round is on me and the pretzels are free! Be warned: like the pickled eggs at the bar, this issue is going to get SPOILED rotten.
We left off last issue with Clint taking down Atlas which led him to Mach X. For those that don’t know, Mach X ( or Beetle as you may know him as), basically has a winged jet pack and shoots missiles. Well on this stop of Clint’s magical mystery tour, he heads to Kree Haven where we see Mach X (Beetle) working on an assembly line making Doombots 7 days a week. We can see that he has some remorse for some of the things he’s done in the past but as we learned throughout the issue, Beetle only ever did it out of love for someone he cared for named Melissa. The how’s and why’s are left out.
Clint drops in and challenges him to a battle to the death, like he did with Atlas before. He makes Beetle get his suit on a waits for him to come back. Meanwhile, we see that Bullseye, whose been chasing Clint down to kill him, has Clint lined up dead to rights until Kraven the Hunter’s 3 grandkids stop him. This of course pisses Bullseye off and he slices up Kraven’s grandkids only to take a gut wound of his own sending Bullseye packing for another day.
Clint and Beetle fight and Hawkeye eventually ties up his wings and jams an arrow in his jugular killing Beetle for good in mid air. Meanwhile, Multiple Man, which as bonded with the Venom symbiote, has also been looking for Clint. Multi-Venom tracked Clint down to Arcade’s territory from last issue and finds Blindfold the fortune teller threatening her for information on Clint’s whereabouts.
Being a fortune teller, she saw this coming and poisons herself so the symbiote won’t take control of her too. But right before she dies, Multi-Venom takes control of her and gets a quick read on where Clint went. The issue ends with Clint being depressed and drinking at a bar with Multi-Venom on the way.
