The Hawkeye tv series is very loosely based on the Hawkeye comic series. There is still a lot of meat on the bone for future projects.

The Kingpin in this episode was....fine. But not great. He can fight, though, so that's correct.

All these trick arrows were seen in the final episode.

In the comics, Kate and Clint both call each other "Hawkeye." Which I think is fun.

News you can abuse!

People in Norway want to see Spider-Man: No Way Home so bad that they are leaving the country to do it!

Happy Hogan was supposed to die in Iron Man 3?

I guess people thought it was worth getting Covid to watch Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Take these Sony/Marvel Spider-Man rumors with a grain of salt. A huge grain of salt.

Yelena is back! Hanging out with Kate Bishop! But, lots of people are saying very silly things that make no sense, like this article!

The family dynamic in Hawkeye originally came from the Ultimate line of comics. In those comics, Clint Barton's entire family is murdered, so we should hope they don't stick to that in the show. (and, no, Mike, Laura is not going to become a super-hero)

BOMBSHELL AWARD!

THE KINGPIN HAS ARRIVED! There are many variations of Wilson Fisk, but they are always basically the same.

Yelena Belova has joined the fight!

Please remember that Yelena is nothing in the MCU like she is in the comics.

In the Hawkeye comic that this series is loosely based on, Clint is viewed as a womanizer. He cheats on his girlfriend in the comics and treats women pretty terribly. That's not how the show is portraying him (thankfully).

Mike has a theory that Kate's mother is going to be the villain. Maybe?

Bombshell’s first mission was to team up with Oddball and Silencer to kidnap Hawkeye. She kept her bombs in a duffle bag.

Venom is officially in the MCU. (sigh)

We are getting a Shang-Chi sequel, baby!

We've seen Hawkeye a lot and it's amazing how consistent the MCU version of the character is, which is different in many ways from the comics.

The Disney+ show did a fair introduction of Kate Bishop. But we are missing some key elements that the comics had time to address.

Yes, Lucky the dog is in the comics.

And, yes, so are the Tracksuit Mafia.

Jack Duquesne is actually Jacques Duquesne in the comics and he goes by the Swordsman, who was an Avengers. It looks like the MCU is turning him into a villain. (But we don't really know yet)

Echo is from old Daredevil comics, which is why many people think the Kingpin is going to show up at some point.

News you can abuse!

Colby Smulders is back as Maria Hill and hopefully she won't be as boring as she always has.

Whoa! Keanu Reeves wants to join the MCU!

The original Captain Marvel was a man. He fought Thanos. Was a big time hero. Died of Cancer.

Carol Danvers has been a huge part of the Marvel universe a very long time and just recently took up the Captain Marvel mantel in the last ten years.

Yes, Flerkens are from the comics.

The Kree have blue skinned and “pink” skinned people and have a number of different genetic variations.

In the comics, the Skrulls are Deviants that took over their entire planet.

Talos the Untamed originally showed up in the Incredible Hulk.

Photon is the kid from the movie who will, at some point, claim the Captain Marvel mantle.

The Eternals have a very complicated history in the Marvel Comics Universe.

The Celestials are in the comics and they are very similar to how they are portrayed in the movie.

Arishem is a judge of humanity in the comics.

Want to learn more about the Eternals? Here’s a long list of them.

Starfox, or Eros, is legitimately the brother of Thanos. They have the same mother and father who are Eternals.
