Hawkeye: My Life As A Weapon is a Marvel Premier Collection edition of the Eisner Award-winning Hawkeye run by writer Matt Fraction and artist David Aja. It comes in a newly designed book format with a new introduction by Fraction. The work won Eisner Awards for Best Single Issue, Best Penciller and Best Cover Artist.
The stories follow Clint Barton, an ordinary guy in a world of gods and super-soldiers who wants to do right and maybe grill a decent rooftop BBQ. He works alongside Kate Bishop, his protégé. Together they take on a digital doomsday, Russian mobsters in tracksuits and the everyday chaos of life in New York. Small details like neighbors, stray dogs and broken tape decks play a big part. Pizza Dog also gets his own Eisner-winning story.
The book includes bonus content: variant covers, a sketchbook, cover concepts, page process, color guides and David Aja's drawing playlists.
