New Avengers

Hawkeye is in hot pursuit of the Black Widow after a jailbreak at the Raft in this prose adaptation of the blockbuster Marvel comic series.

While Agent Clint Barton, aka Hawkeye, is pushing papers aboard the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, he notices an unfamiliar redhead has infiltrated their security. When Hawkeye confronts the beautiful intruder, fists—and sparks—fly until she is finally subdued. After identifying the mysterious redhead as the Russian super-spy and assassin, Black Widow, S.H.I.E.L.D. sends her to the only place that can contain her . . .

Located in New York City’s East River, the super-prison known as the Raft holds some of the world’s deadliest and most powerful criminals—or at least it did. There’s been a breakout . . .

The Avengers have disbanded, but the world once again needs heroes. To round up the vicious villains, Iron Man and Captain American must assemble a new team, one that includes the likes of Spider-Man, Spider-Woman, and Luke Cage. Hawkeye, meanwhile, is dispatched with only one mission: bring in the Widow, dead or alive . . .

Based on the comic series by Brian Michael Bendis and David Finch
