Marvel diggings deeper

In some ways, Hawkeye's arc in the MCU mimics the implausibly unsound and complicated histories that fall out characters around in laughable books. Atomic number 2's a veteran who fought in the Battle of New York, clashed with Tony Stark and ship's company during the events of Civil State of war, and murdered loads of criminals when his family disappeared after the Thanos tear apart – oh, and he traveled across time itself to help stop Thanos, and saw his best friend drop dead as a result.

That's a lot of baggage for one character in one series of movies – and this show looks like it hits the reset button, somewhat, even if it clearly acknowledges his clip murdering folks in the Hell. His life seems more normal now, pitching this spin-off as a comedy-focused standalone series with a Christmas theme, which is quite a a turn from murdering an entire street of Yakuza goons.

The longer the MCU goes on, the more weird and complicated each character's life testament get, particularly for the older superheroes – it's arguably why receding Iron Man and Maitre d'hotel America when they did makes common sense.

How many stories Clint Barton has left in him remains to be seen, merely this series shows it's non impossible to reset the status quo if a character ends functioning in a darker place than the viewer expects.
