	The backstory of Hawkeye wasn't too bad. It tried to give his character a little more dimension.

	Quite good indeed, we have Hawkeye's backstory, Cap's letter to twist the plot and the 3 newest Avengers having to work as a team by themselves.

	I don't get it, was the Hydra thing a flashback, or is this issue in the wrong place in the order?
