Thoughts on Hawkeye — episode 1

Let’s talk Hawkeye episode 1!

There’s a SPOILER section and a non-SPOILER section here: the SPOILER section is clearly marked at the end of this post, because I’m nice to you all.

Anything that’s in the pre-series trailers is not considered by yours truly to be a SPOILER — so be aware of that.

There I am, watching and thinking ‘wow, this is so close to the Matt Fraction comics run — it really has that vibe and I love that’ and wouldn’t you know it — Matt Fraction is a consulting producer!

So that makes sense and is totally awesome.

Because there’s no-one on God’s green earth I trust to do right by Clint Barton and Kate Bishop more than Matt Fraction. So happy right now! 😁

Kate rocks, obviously.

I love that she rocks here — that Hailee Steinfeld has got her down so quick.

And Steinfeld in a tux is something that I need more of in my life — and I love that she’s herself and wears suits instead of whatever dress her…
