After selling Iron Man's secrets to Obdiah Stane, Natasha Romanoff became hunted by SHIELD, specifically by its best agent, Hawkeye. Following clues, Clint traveled the world tracking Black Widow without success, as she is always one step ahead. The latest clues lead him back to New York, where Clint prevents Natasha from killing SHIELD advisor Donald Pierce. This leads to Natasha's arrest, but more than that, the revelation that Pierce is not the man he claims to be and that this time she was trying to do the right thing. Everything gets even more complicated when the mercenary assassin known as Taskmaster is sent to take Natasha out of SHIELD's possession and kill her, preventing her from saying more. Now, Hawkeye and Black Widow have to put their differences aside to deal with Taskmaster, a deadly man who can replicate any move they make, proving himself a perfect assassin. But Clint and Natasha have a past, having worked together when he was a mercenary before joining the agency, even having a romantic relationship, until he was betrayed and left for dead. This could complicate or further motivate the world's greatest marksman.
