Clinton "Clint" Barton[1] a.k.a. Hawkeye[37] is an American skilled marksman, archer, and former circus performer and minor super villain turned member of the Avengers, "Earth's Mightiest Heroes".[38] As a member of the Avengers, he always had friction with the team, but always returned to fight any threat. Barton was raised in the circus, trained by criminals, and grew from a troubled youth into one of Earth's greatest heroes. Known for his use of a bow and arrow as his primary weapon, his skill is so great that it appears like he never misses.[39] He has worked with Black Widow, whom he developed a strong friendship with.[40] For many years, he was married to fellow super hero Mockingbird,[41] and together they were the original founders of the West Coast Avengers.[42]
On Monday, fugitive Bruce Banner stops at a gas station and is approached by an armed robber. Enraged, the man shoots Banner. The pain awakens the Hulk when he is shot. On Tuesday, the destruction draws the attention of General Ross and the army. Consumed by vengeance for the deaths of his men, Ross hunts him down, seeing great military potential in the Hulk and his blood. A manhunt ensues, leading to chaos and destruction. On Wednesday, still on the run, Banner ends up at the Stark Expo during Zzzax's attack, transforming again. Seeing the Hulk and the chaos, Tony Stark believes himself responsible, leading to a confrontation between Hulk and Iron Man. On Thursday, Banner clashes with S.H.I.E.L.D., led by Hawkeye. On Friday, Betty Ross locates the Hulk with the help of Rick Jones. They share a moment, but Bruce pushes her away, aware of the danger he poses to her. On Saturday, Banner is contacted by Dr. Geoffrey Crawford, a friend of his father, who claims to be developing a cure for the Hulk. However, Crawford uses Hulk blood on himself to cure a terminal illness, transforming into an equally dangerous gamma creature. Even so, he gives the serum and research to Bruce. Banner refuses to abandon him, and the two fight, resulting in Crawford's death when his heart fails. The serum and research are destroyed during the fight. On Sunday, Banner resumes his solitary journey down the road. Looking in the mirror, he sees the Hulk's reflection, as lonely as he is.
