Currently Reading: Hawkeye vol #3 (Marvel Now)

It has been over a year since I've read the second volume of Hawkeye, I can't believe I waited this long to pull the third volume off the shelf. I really have to agree with fans that Matt Fraction did a wonderful job creating a series that's fun instead of going with the typical comic book format of being dark and grime.  

I really can't wait to start reading this, it looks like Kate Bishop is in for one wild adventure.

Description:

Kate Bishop heads to Los Angeles to get away from New York, life and Clint Barton -- but she can't escape trouble! Because Madame Masque is hanging out poolside with the rich and famous, as well! As Kate helps a reclusive and sixties-damaged pop-music genius find his lost masterpiece, Madame Masque finds Kate. By which we mean starts trying to kill her again.

This one has it all! Characters! Plot! Story! Dialogue! Theme! Meaning! Message! Action! A little exposition! Fire! Arrows! Criminals! Neighbors! Large bodies of water! Clients! Cops who don't care! A system that victimizes the victims! The dog! In broken towns where cynicism and apathy has its claws around the throat of the good and decent, Lady Hawkguy is the only hero you can trust!
