The Ultimate Universe Debuts Its Hawkeye
Clint Barton Rejected the Role in This Reality
Marvel ’s fresh Ultimate Universe ( aka Earth-6160 ) debuted in 2023 , and is an alternative timeline where the villains prevail the world . Thistimeline was make by the Maker , who used time travelling and his knowledge of Marvel ’s mainstream history to vote out , crooked or de - power everyone who might have offer a challenge to his plans of public domination . In the timeline make by the Maker , most Marvel bomber never find their great power , set aside him to part up the world among his " Maker ’s Council " of villains and pursue hideous human experimentation while distracting the world with a constant province of state of war .
Thankfully , Tony Stark ’s father find out the truth , supervise to trap the Maker in his own research lab for two age ( the science laboratory is a time prison , think that 100 - or possibly millennium - are slip away for the Maker inwardly . ) That gave the Ultimates eighteen months to build up some kind of resistance movement , with Tony make it his mission to re - empower the zep whose lives were warped by the Maker . Sadly , Ultimates # 1 ( Deniz Camp , Juan Frigeri , Federico Blee , and Travis Lanham ) revealed this mission is heavy than it seems - most of Marvel ’s heroes have been broken so badly they ca n’t manage their power , either rejecting them or dying trying to master them ( Captain Marvel among their number . )
One of the heroes who could n’t cut it was Clint Barton , who abandoned his Modern costumein an homage to John Romita ’s ' Spider - Man No More ! ' art . Now , it seems a new submarine sandwich has found the advanced equipment that Tony Stark intended to give to Clint , and refuses to give it back . It ’s an interesting development - while the Ultimates have been recruiting heroes to stand against the Maker , their selection have been extremely tactical . It will be interesting to see how they deal with a fighter who they did n’t pass select .
Marvel ’s Ultimate Avengers always strive to palpate relevant to the modern globe , and how better to do that than with a heaping of existential anxiety ?
The New Hawkeye Resurrects the Original’s Captain America Rivalry
But This Steve Rogers Is a LOT More Hardcore
While the Ultimates may not be felicitous to see the new Hawkeye , that ’s par for the course for the Avenging Archer . Hawkeye get together the Avengers as a member of theteam known as Cap ’s Kooky Quartet , and immediately started tear for a leading function . Hawkeye had a immense grudge against Captain America as a symbolisation of authority , needling him invariably . While the two are Friend today , most of their relationship has been characterized by Hawkeye controvert Steve Rogers and pushing back against his office every probability he gets .
Unfortunately for the new Hawkeye , this Captain America is n’t the mainstream Steve Rogers . This Cap was left frozen in ice rink far longer , fire up up to a world where America no longer exist and the dream he fought for is long dead . Captain America shocked Marvel fansinUltimates # 2when he select to kill G of innocents by releasing a superhuman who was being used as a power source for essential infrastructure . Usually , Captain America is more willing to turn a loss than to risk innocent lives , but the Ultimate Universe has created a far more uttermost Super Soldier . This time , the Captain America / Hawkeye contention might not have such a happy closing .
In The Ultimates # 1 , a founding member of the Greco-Roman Avengers card gets a monolithic power upgrade , place them into conference with the Hulk .
However , the danger is n’t just come from Cap . The new Hawkeye should be even more capable of hold in their own , even against a more tearing Cap . InHyuk Lee ’s variant screen makes it clear that thenew Hawkeye is wear Iron Man - style armour , likely with some experimental and highly weaponized arrows(hence why the squad require to regenerate the technical school . ) The hero also seem to be Indigenous American , adding redundant layers of import to the idea of Captain America render to strip them of power - specially in a timeline where the actual nation of America was disband in 1969 .
The new She - Hulk is a general , not a superhero , as Marvel formally tears up the rulebook on Hulk ’s billet in the universe and the boundary of da Gamma .
Hopefully, the New Hawkeye Can Avoid the Original Ultimate Hawkeye’s Fate
Black Widow Slaughtered Clint Barton’s Family
Marvel ’s Modern Ultimate Universe is n’t the first use of that name - the imprint was first used in 2000 , spawning a new timeline thatheavily influenced the forward-looking MCU . Sadly , in that world , it was finally revealed that Black Widow was an embedded double-dealer , and she killed Hawkeye ’s house as part of a sublime plan to destroy the Ultimatesand unseat America as a world power . Not only did Hawkeye take his revenge by killing his former friend , but he gained a major nihilist stripe that inhale some incredibly dark moment .
The newUltimate Universe is a very dissimilar world , almost a mirror image of the original Ultimate Universe . However , it does include references back for fans who followed the pilot . Ultimates # 2saw two of Ultimate Captain America ’s bad moments flipped and given young context , and it ’s potential that the new Hawkeye will experience some echoes of the original ’s benighted journey . Hopefully , they ’re given a more positive spin this time around .
In the original Ultimate Universe , Captain America said one very controversial line that has been given a perfect wrench in the novel Ultimate Universe .
Weirdly, This Isn’t 2024’s First New Hawkeye
Avengers: Twilight’s Bullseye Reveals What’s Essential About the Codename
While the new Hawkeye is a major change to Clint Barton , 2024 actuallyalready gave lover a new version of Hawkeye . This happened in Chip Zdarsky and Daniel Acuña’sAvengers : Twilight- a amusing set in a nigh future where the Avengers have been discredited and the US is turning into a dictatorship . That Hawkeye was earlier a Thunderbolts soldier who turned against the administration when she was ordered to kill Steve Rogers , join up with Captain America ’s new Avengers roll and receiving the Hawkeye codename from him .
What ’s interesting about these two new Hawkeyes is how they show what ’s consistent across different character using the codename . Hawkeye is an foreigner who first encounters the Avengers as an enemy , border heads with Captain America despite ( so far ) the potential difference for a close relationship . It ’s yet to be seen what ingredient of the ' formula ' the young Ultimate UniverseHawkeyewill habit and which they ’ll redefine , but whatever the answer , The Ultimatescontinues to put its own singular , modern - day twisting on theAvengerslore fans think was set in stone .
