Winterhawk Comic Reading Guide

Bucky and Clint have more issues together than people think of. This is a guide of all their interactions and team-ups. For a simplified guide, check here

At the end of the guide, I give more context for the events and eras. Bold is what I consider the important/worthy stuff and I split it up by eras and events.

[The Initiative]

*Fallen Son: The Death of Captain America #3

This is a Clint only issue but it will give you context for a lot of their earlier interactions

*Captain America (2005) #37

their first meeting

*Avengers/Invaders #5

Bucky is one of the main characters of this event as the Invaders was his WW2 team so he appears in all the issues. Clint also appears in multiple issues. But Clint meets sidekick/kid/WW2 Bucky in issue #5

[Secret Invasion]

*Secret Invasion #6-8

There’s some cool panels that feature both Clint and Bucky

[Dark Reign]

*New Avengers (2005) #48-54

Bucky invites Clint and the new Avengers to stay at his place and Bucky joins the team. A lot of interactions and Bucky and Clint even copilot the quinjet. If you were only to read one arc of this run go with #48-52 as it really set ups the dynamics and tensions in the team

*The Mighty Avengers (2007) #21

Clint and Bucky have a small but fun interaction.

*New Avengers: The Reunion #1

Clint and Bucky have a conversation about Steve and legacy

*Captain America (2005) #37, #50

37 is just Bucky mentioning Clint but it does imply that Clint knows about Bucky’s past as the winter soldier which at the time was a secret. When asked about it, the writer Ed Brubaker said that Clint and Bucky spent a lot of nights talking about Steve. In issue #50, Clint organizes Bucky as surprise birthday party.

*Captain America (1968) #600

It’s the one year anniversary of Steve’s death. Bucky and Clint spar

*Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #600

The new avengers are there so Bucky and Clint share panels

*New Avengers (2005) #55-59

More of them being on the same team and interacting

*The Mighty Avengers (2007) #29, #30, #31

29 and 30 is just regular avengers stuff, but #31 has one of my favorites BuckyClint team up moments

*Captain America: Reborn #1-6

Clint, Bucky, Sam, Natasha and Hank Pym believe Steve is not actually dead, they go look for him. To fully understand this outside of the BuckyClint interactions, I suggest you read Captain America: Road to Reborn  which collects Captain America (2005) #49-50 and Captain America (1968) #600-601 

*Dark Reign: The List - Avengers #1

The Dark Avengers decide to capture the New Avengers. The New Avengers have a discussion about the possibility of killing Norman Osborn.

*New Avengers (2005) Annual #3

Clint decides to go kill Osborn but is captured instead. The New Avengers go rescue him. Worth the to check out for the art.

*What If? Dark Reign #1

Au where the events of the Annual #3 had a different ending. It is not canon but it has some good BuckyClint interactions

*New Avengers (2005) #60

consequences of the 3rd annual

[Siege]

*New Avengers (2005) #61

Clint is not in this issue, if you’re reading for the whole story, you should read it as it leads to the Siege event

*Siege #2-4

The event where all the Avengers team fight against Osborn who is trying to take over Asgard. It’s a big event so Clint and Bucky are there among many many other heroes. You can play spot spot BuckyClint  or you can read the event in full for the story

*New Avengers (2005) #62-64

#62 takes place during Siege #2, #63 takes place before Siege #2 and during Siege #3, #64 takes place in between Siege #3 and Siege #4

*Avengers: The Initiative #34

Takes place during Siege #3. There’s a spread with both Clint and Bucky. This tie-in can be skipped.

*New Avengers Finale #1

The team disbands as they no longer need to be an underground team and they can now officially be Avengers. 

[Heroic Age]

*Captain America (1968) #607

Clint walks into a room where Bucky is to tell them to check the news on the tv. 

*Hawkeye & Mockingbird #1, #5

In #5, Clint light heartedly complains about Bucky to Steve while they spar and then Bucky comes in to spar with them. #5 is just Bucky being with Steve when Clint calls for a ride.

*Captain America (1968) #611-612

The news find out about Bucky being the Winter Soldier and so does Clint. He is not happy about a murderer being Cap and on the Avengers and being hidden the truth. This contradicts what Brubaker said about Captain America (2005) #37. Fun game of choose your own canon

*Captain America and the Falcon (2011) #1

small team-up at the beginning of the issue

[Marvel Now]

*Winter Soldier (2012) #10-14

Bucky asks Clint and some other people to help him find Natasha. There’s some good bickering and Clint finding out that Bucky’s not dead

[After this, Clint and Bucky did not interact or share panels for years. They did share one issue, Secret Avengers (2013) #16, where Bucky went on vacation with Bobbi, Clint’s ex wife, while Clint was worried about Bobbi.]

[Secret Empire]

*Secret Empire #8-10

Bucky, Cint and others team up to take down Hydra Cap. Clint and Bucky both appear in more issues but this is the ones were they interact/team up.

*Secret Empire Omega #1

Natasha dies during the events of Secret Empire. Bucky watches Clint crying at Natasha’s funeral on national television. This marks a change to their dynamic.

[Marvel Legacy]

*Tales of Suspense (2017) #100-104

Bucky and Clint reluctantly team up to track Natasha who they believe to be alive. Must read.

*The Punisher (2016) #226, #227, #228

The continuation to the ToS ending. Bucky, Clint, Bobbi and Nat are sent to bring the Punisher into custody but Bucky and Natasha have a secret agenda. #226 has a good BuckyClint moment. Bucky and Clint dont interact and don’t share panels in #227 and #228 but they are in opposite sides with Clint coming working with SHIELD and other heroes to stop Natasha, Bucky and Frank

[Fresh Start]

*The Punisher (2018) #5, #12

It’s implied that Bucky, Clint and other guys often team up together under Nick Fury Jr. Here they are sent to catch the Punisher.

*War of the Realms #5

there’s this very cool panel where they’re both riding unicorns

* Web of Black Widow #5

In this final issue, Clint, Bucky, Yelena and Tony help Natasha take down the Headmistress who had been impersonating Natasha.

*Hawkeye: Freefall #1, #4, #6

Someone is going around dressed as Ronin, Clint teams up with Bucky and other people to prove it is not him. Issue #6 only has Bucky calling Clint.

*Falcon & Winter Soldier #1-3

Clint is brought up 3 issues in a row? Bucky is literally like “So what do you think about Barton?”

*Black Widow (2020) #1- 5

Something weird is happening to Natasha, so Bucky and Clint team up to observe her and then Clint, Bucky, Yelena team up with Natasha to help her defeat the enemies. It is most likely set before Hawkeye: Freefall but came out after 

*King in Black: Captain America #1

Bucky once again mentions Clint to Sam and implies that the two of them discuss ideas

Rating Piercings on MCU Characters

This is NOT based on jewelery, it’s done by how many piercings they have and where they are.

Yelena has two lobe piercings on both ears with two additional helix piercings on her right ear.

Total: 6 piercings. Rate: 9/10. She needs at least one more on her left ear. I can totally see an industrial or helix working on her.

Natasha has four lobe piercings, her tragus done, the conch, a forward helix, and two helix piercings all on her left ear. As far as I know, she has no piercings on her right ear.

Total: 9 piercings. Rate: 11/10. The more piercings the better!! I love that her left ear is entirely covered in piercings. I hope she’s able to wear some more on her right ear.

Pepper has two piercings visible here. Her tragus and lobe are pierced on her left ear. She at least has one lobe piercing on her right ear.

Total: 3 piercings. Rate: 7/10. I think she only had her lobe piercings throughout the Iron Man trilogy so it’s nice to see an addition! So cute.

Okoye has one helix piercing on her left ear and two helix piercings on her right ear. I think.

Total: 3 piercings. Rate: 8/10. Even though there aren’t that many piercings, the placement makes up for it and she has them on both ears.

Wanda, Sarah, Peggy, and Agatha all have their first lobe piercing on both ears. Other characters known to have this piercing are Jane, Monica, Sharon, Ramonda, and Nakia.

Total: 2 piercings per character. Rate: 5/10. I’m glad they have piercings, but they’re so simple. Most of the time the jewelry makes up for the lack of piercings.

If I ever become President, I’d start an official Tumblr account and post, “Do y’all have any good shoelace recommendations? Mine keep going missing for some reason. ☹️” And then I’d deactivate the account and never come back to this platform ever again.

[sadistichaunt]

thinking about Jason Todd.

people talk about him missing out on being a kid because of his death, but what about before that? He was twelve years old, living by himself. Before that, he was taking care of his dying mother. Before that, he was helping keep his household afloat.

Jason Todd has never been allowed to be a kid. He was always forced to take on too much weight to carry, and dying was just a final catharsis on that. He was an awful candidate for Robin *because* he was resourceful. He was too independent, he'd already started to erode a river path that Bruce couldn't divert.

No wonder he loses his shit when he comes back. He's never had the opportunity to be a kid, to shed the responsibility of other people and live for himself. Now, to see that he was never *needed?* That his role was filled and he was forgotten? That he had been carrying that weight for nothing?

He'd never been given a thank you, or an appreciation. He did what he had to do for the people that he loved. And it meant *nothing.*

[llmsos]

Bro thinks he’s tough

[papayafromtv]

Jason is in civilian clothing absolutely plastered at a Crime Alley bar when Joker breaks out of Arkham, and while still drunk he abruptly decides he’s sick of all this dramatic bullshit and just. kills the Joker. tracks him down, kills him without any fanfare, and ditches. it was executed flawlessly, incredible really considering his intoxication levels at the time. he only slipped up a teeny-tiny amount.

because he got seen leaving the murder scene. in civilian clothing. and then got caught once more via a security camera as he was disappearing back into Crime Alley. and the bats fucking saw that footage.

Bruce Wayne, an emotional wreck, just found out that Jason is alive, apparently just murdered the Joker, and is now living alone in Crime Alley (and who knows in what conditions?! he’s legally dead, there’s no legal way for him to make money, his poor son might be homeless.) and for some reason he isn’t coming home. Bruce is in despair, getting worse the longer they can’t track Jason down. finally, at his wits end, he decides to ask the help of the one other vigilante figure that seems to know Crime Alley better than the bats, and that might have some less-savoury contacts that could be of better help tracking down a legally dead boy.

the Red Hood, struggling not to laugh hysterically in Batman’s face, has never been more excited to accept a job in his LIFE. he has no plans on how he’s going to fuck with Bruce just yet, but by god is he going to do something.

[imtired-likerllytired]

Dick:….

Jason:….

Tim:….

Dick: okay so was anyone gonna tell me Bruce is dating Joe Chills daughter or was I supposed to figure that out by myself.

Jason: HES WHAT

Tim:???????

Damian: I think I just threw up in my mouth

Cass: …is this that Freud guy you were telling me about?

Steph: somehow worse? I think?

Jason: Idk where does dating the daughter of your parents murderer fall on the Oedipus scale of morality?

Tim: more importantly where did you find out this information?

Damian: please tell me it’s a tabloid so I can bleach my brain of this conversation.

Dick: Babs tipped me off that something was up and I stalked em for a week

Tim: Ah classic

Jason: you really have one trick Grayson

Dick: Hey! No I do infiltrations, Tim and Cass are the stalker duo

Cass: *nods*

Jason: so… Bruce is actually dating the kid of the guy who offed mama and papa Wayne. That’s cold. I’m a little impressed actually.

Tim: Clark was RIGHT THERE

Dick: so was Selina

Damian: no

Cass: yes

Steph: yes

Dick: you’re outvoted Damian I’ll see all of you tomorrow at the cave bright eyed and bushy tailed!

[kawareo]

Got reminded again of my old coworker who was a massive misogynist but also trans inclusive. Told me he believed trans women are indeed women because "only women would be stupid enough to want to be women"

I wonder what he's doing now

[kawareo]

He also aggressively corrected himself whenever he accidentally misgendered a trans guy we knew because "there's already more women than men in the world, the more numbers we steal from them, the better." Did that even when the trans guy wasn't around.

[kawareo]

I need to point out that he was completely serious btw. This man had no sense of humor on purpose.

He was a cook at the restaurant/bar I was a bartender at, and almost punched a costumer once because he overheard him talking about how women belong in the kitchen. Told me he thought women should stay out of kitchens, that cooking is a man's job and when I asked him what he thinks women should be doing, he went quiet for a moment, then proceeded to explain to me the following

"I trust a bitch to run a kitchen as much as she can run a country, they should do shit like plumbing. Or electricity. Something you can just learn to do and don't need to lead, you know?"

Apparently women are good at "fixing shit". He claimed that he doesn't trust male plumbers or electricians except if they're gay because "something most be wrong with you if you want to go fix other people's houses, that's that maternal instinct"

[firbolgonmain]

[rock-in-robins]

imagine you're barbara gordon, your 24-25ish you've been paralyzed from the waist down because men fucking suck. You've established yourself as one of, if not, the most powerful information brokers in the world and here comes this teenage girl. she can't talk, she's fucking deadly, she learns new weapons in minutes and suddenly your in charge of her. You're arguing with batman not even for fun but because you've seen how his teaching ends (re: your boyfriend/ex/best friend/dick) but he has a point, this girl needs a mission, she needs something that you can't give. You don't know this girl but you want to. You're batgirl - or you were. She is batgirl now, your oracle now and your okay with that you are. but sometimes you miss the sky and now your a mentor/sister/mother and your not quite sure what to do.

[prlssprfctn]

Kinda need the whole family being tired as fuck from Tim's love stories and drama, so they send him away every time he finds a new crush.

Tim, struggling on how to confess to Kon: Hey, Dick, can you give me a dating advice? Dick: Oh, sure Dick, beaming cluelessly: Are you back with Steph? Tim: Oh no, I- Dick: Oh, right, sorry! Bart, right? Tim, embarrassed: No, I was- Dick: Omg, sorry, it was, uh, Bern? Tim: You know what... Forget it. Tim: *leaves* Dick, sighing in relief: Works every time. I hate giving dating advices.

Tim: Steph, can I have a dating advice? Steph, unimpressed: Are you cheating on someone again? Tim: ...Whatever.

Tim: Bruce- Bruce, hopeful: Yeah? Need help with something? Tim, thinking twice: ...Uh, actually no. Bruce: :(

Tim, stopping in front of Damian's door, unsure: ... Damian, right through the closed door: Drake. Spare us both. Tim: *groan*

Tim: So, I have this situation... Duke: Wait, I'll put the voice message recording, I need to send this to Cass, while she is on the mission Tim: Oh my god, MY LIFE IS NOT EVEN THAT MESSY! FORGET IT.

Tim, seething through his teeth on Jason's doorstep: You are my last hope. I am not even kidding. Jason: Woah. What happened to Alfie? Tim, with his eye twitching: He started to reminisce about his romance with Lizzie. Like, Queen Elizabeth. Lizzie. I can't listen to this any more. I need fucking advice. How to confess to Kon. Jason, who constantly writes fanfiction, but since his love life is non-existent at this point, uses his family's messy dating histories as an inspiration and references: ...Okay. Tim, gagged: Seriously? Jason: Yeah. Just work with me. What we are working with? Bridgerton ass romance? Miss Austen type of flair? Bronte's kind of insanity? Tim, sniffling: tHanK yOu
