FWIW, the Hawkeye tv series came up in this thread and I honestly couldn't remember if I'd seen it or not. I had, which I discovered when I went back and watched it, and it's honestly pretty good on its own and basically adapts the later Kate Bishop-focused miniseries post-Bendis megareboot of everything Avengers, but even so, the character Renner plays is the soft-spoken world-weary agent we knew him to be from the movies, which you'd expect cuz this is just MCU-for-tv. That said, while it is a fun outing and puts some respect on the character and his underplayed skillz, it doesn't actually dig into the cooler earthier prole lore of the character that I was bemoaning up top. So A) doesn't really address my fanboy kvetching BUT B) still kind of honors SOME essence of what fanboys love about the character whilst also being a good ride.
