With Hawkeye left out ofInfinity Waraltogether , fans will be well-chosen to hear that in the world of Marvel Comics , Clint Barton is leading his very own team of Avengers . Ironically , taking them to Hollywood , of all billet .

Yes , Marvel is last bringing back theWest Coast Avengersof yesterday , a appeal of younger heroes in need of a new kickoff , a Modern Word of God , and the leadership of not one , but TWO Hawkeyes . Is it a coincidence that it comes along asHawkeye ’s role in the MCU futurehas never been foggiest ?

Because if Marvel Studios is looking to do Clint DoJ , and inject more diversity into their world … theWest Coast Avengerscomic seems to have figured it out for them .

A man with nuclear explosions going off behind him in The Far Side.

After giving completely wispy dismissals ofwhere Hawkeye is duringAvengers : Infinity War , rooter have rightfully begun to wonder if it is n’t a case of Hawkeye have an off - screen role , but the studio ( and the Russo Brothers ) plainly not thinking one up for him . Even during the height of San Diego Comic - Con , it ’s toilsome to cognise ifJeremy Renner ’s tantalization if Hawkeye inAvengers 4is meannt to get fans excited , or cue Marvel Studios that he ’s quick to be put back into the plot .

Enter : the brand new West Coast Avengers , with Clint Barton lead the pack . A team of heroes that would , in theory , address plenty of the concerns and request of Marvel movie fans . And one that gives Hawkeye a starring role . Imagine that …

We ’re not propose that following the lead of the strip is something Marvel is likely to do any time shortly , particularly give their feelings on not necessitate to faithfully conform theInfinity Warcomic . But if the studio apartment is n’t project to put Hawkeye in a starring role for the foreseeable future , then it ’s nice to see his preceding verbal description as"the heart of the Avengers"put to use somewhere . And with writer Kelly Thompson and artist Stefano Castelli engage Clint and Kate Bishop out west , and bringing young sub along for the drive , both archers are in good hands .

The Avengers and Captain America from Endgame

For many of the same rationality that Clint Barton stands apart in the MCU , as well . Hawkeye has seen it all , lost friends and loved ones , and is not what first comes to mind when picturing a fearless , unflappable leader ( like your Steve Rogerses , for example ) . But if anything , that seems to make him more worth if a team and family to care for , not less .

So consider this some insurance policy , Marvel fans . IfAvengers 4breaks Hawkeye ’s heartthe agency we expect , just release to the comic to see him hem in by novel heroic Quaker ! And withWest Coast Avengersarriving in August , you may even get a straits starting time .

West Coast Avengers#1releases on August 22 fromMarvel strip .
