'Hawkeye' (1x03): a highly entertaining episode in which the Disney + series reveals the origin of Echo

 In the American television machinery there is what is called a "backdoor pilot", widely used for spin-offs of something in broadcast. This is that, instead of making a pilot to use, the characters of the new series are presented in a normal episode of the main series. Today we could consider that the third of ' Eye of the Hawk ' ('Hawkeye') serves as an official presentation to 'Echo' .

But hey, before we get into it, a little warning to sailors that, from now on, there will be spoilers for 'Echoes', the third episode of 'Hawkeye'.

Since the beginning of Marvel Studios, both series and movies have been interconnected and are serving as platforms for others. In 'Ojo de Halcón' they seem to go beyond the usual and dedicate the entire prologue (or the cold open, if you prefer) of its third hour to the interesting origin of Maya López (Alaqua Cox).

Tracksuits and trick arrows

After the title poster, we go back to when we left our characters in the previous episode . We see Clint (Jeremy Renner) and Kate (Hailee Steinfeld) at the mercy of the Tracksuit gang in their vendetta against Ronin. The exchange unfolds as expected, with a fight, escape and a rather entertaining chase —and with tricked arrows from "plumber" to USB— and in which Bert & Bertie, the directors of the episode, give us some very effective shots.

Once things calm down, we see that Kazi (Fra Fee) is concerned about everything that has happened and is worried that it will reach higher ears. Although we do not know exactly who this "Uncle" is, those of us who understand from comics know that after the death of her father, Maya is adopted by Wilson Fisk , aka Kingpin (and, in fact, he used her in his war with Daredevil) .

Something that would fit with the theories that with 'Hawkeye' (Hawk's Ear, as Kate jokes) Marvel is rebuilding its side of street heroes . We do not know to what extent it is like this - the desire for the return of Daredevil and company can us - but welcome in that case.

As the lead duo walks the dog, we see that Clint's deafness is more serious than we thought. Something that even more, gives another reason for withdrawal (resigned) for the "tired superhero". Jonathan Igla's series - which gives Katie Mathewson and Tanner Bea the baton in this episode - still wants to explore the more familiar side of heroes and it works very well .

Between the Swordsman and the wall

The last act of the episode takes us to the family case, where Kate tries to access the company's database to find out just before ending up with a cliffhanger . Specifically with Clint's neck touching a blade held by Jack (Tony Dalton), one of the big suspects in the plot.

I admit a lot of curiosity to see how the character is developed here, since (going back to the comics) the Swordsman was the teacher who taught the archer all his tricks . At least it remains to clarify his relationship with this criminal plot and what is Sloan Ltd., Kazi's employer. Although the name sounds like Clint, I have not been able to identify this.

Ultimately, 'Hawkeye' is still a tremendously entertaining hobby and episodes like this are able to keep me excited throughout its duration.
