Hawkeye, Issue #4 begins with Kate Bishop, having been captured, teasing her captor. She gets loose, of course. The bad guy, Aggregate, is amplifying people's hate and feeding off their emotional turmoil. Once Kate and her companion are free, they are still surrounded by a gang of mindless zombies. I won't spoil exactly how the arc ends, but it does end pretty cleverly. The next arc does begin a little bit in this issue, where Kate Bishop is looking for clues about her father.
I haven't looked at sales figures for this title, but now that it's evident that Clint Barton/the other Hawkeye isn't going to play even a minor role in this comic, I won't be surprised if a few people jump ship. I've had a busy week, and I'm falling behind on my comics. If this continues, it won't be long before I start culling my purchases, although I'll probably start with comics that I'm just starting, including the three or four comics that I've begun in the past month or two.
