CLINT BARTON (Earth-616)
Writer: Brian Michael Bendis | Penciller & Cover Artist: Leinil Francis Yu
*NOTE: TWO CHARACTERS APPEAR AS 'RONIN' IN THIS ISSUE. THE FIRST ONE IS MAYA LOPEZ (ECHO), WHO ELEKTRA KILLED AND SUBSEQUENTLY RESURRECTED. AND THE SECOND ONE IS CLINT, WHO DROPPED HIS HAWKEYE ALIAS AS PART OF THE NEW AVENGERS.
When Hawkeye learns about the assassination of Captain America, he confronts Tony Stark, who then offers Clint the Captain America shield and costume to continue the legacy. Hawkeye, however, is later inspired by the words of Kate Bishop and rejects Stark's offer.
Hawkeye then returns to see Dr. Strange and meets the New Avengers. The team invites Clint to join them, and he accepts, accompanying the group on a mission to Japan to rescue Echo. This time, leaving behind his Hawkeye identity, Clint Barton takes on the disguise of Ronin.
Echo, the original Ronin, later gives Barton her blessing to adopt her old identity. Clint later meets Kate Bishop again but this time reveals his true identity, much to Kate's surprise. Impressed with Kate's skill with a bow and the fact she reminds him of himself at her age, Clint blesses Kate to continue using the Hawkeye codename.
