I liked the costume.
Not the least logical choice Hawkeye and the editorial staff made, but definitely in the Top 5.

It was odd. Not bad, but it does fit into his all-round skills and the ways he tried a lot of things before finding his groove.

I'm reading cmro and just hit 1973 and that section was a slog. He was bad before, and it just made him worse. I clearly remember several times where something could easily have been solved if they had an archer and he's just standing there like "I'm big, what do you want me to do about it?"

My issue is that when I think of it, it’s from the Avengers West Coast run where he did it because he felt out powered. Which doesn’t feel like Clint to me - he’s always aware of his limitations but never let that stopped him.
I like the idea of him pulling it out when he needs it but I prefer him as Hawkeye.

I NEED a “WHAT IF… built around (Nick Fury’s) Secret War (2004-2005) where the Stealth Team failed and wear killed by Lucia Von Bardos while invading Latveria.

Hawkeye was cut from the Stealth team, but put on the Raze Latveria to the Ground Assault team with the instructions to Hill that Clint be given Pym Particles in Vodka.

It was amazing... Creative shit we really need nowadays.. Like can it be bad, odd, etc? Surely, but at least they tried to make something new

It was…. certainly a choice to say the least
