Early Years
Clinton "Clint" Barton was born to Harold and Edith Barton. He grew up working in his father's Butchers shop in Waverly, Iowa with his brother, Barney. Their father was abusive, especially when he drank and continually beat the young boys; Barney taught Clint how to fight and helped him to improve his aim. Harold's drinking eventually cost him his life along with his wife when both died in a car accident. Clint and Barney were sent to numerous foster homes; while running away from one of them, they encountered and joined a traveling circus where the pair worked as roustabouts. While a member of the circus, Clint was trained by the original Swordsman and by Trick Shot.

Joining S.H.I.E.L.D.
As he matured, Barton developed exceptional marksmanship skills and used them to great effect in the military arm of S.H.I.E.L.D., in which he was given the codename Hawkeye.

Around the time he joined S.H.I.E.L.D., he met and formed a romantic relationship with his fellow agent named Bobbi Morse (aka Mockingbird), whom he later proposed.

Later, he was tasked to carry out the assassination of a young Russian agent code named "Black Widow". However, instead of killing her, he opted to let her live, and discovered her true name, Natasha "Natalia" Romanova. The relationship between the two developed into a lasting partnership that continued through bringing her in to work for S.H.I.E.L.D. Together, they had missions in Budapest, Abidjan and many other locations.
