Hawkeye was proved to be innocent by the footage from his Sky Cycle, confirming Black Widow to be the traitor.
Hawkeye was introduced as a reluctant villain in Tales of Suspense #57 (Sept. 1964). After two more appearances as a villain in Tales of Suspense #60 and #64 (Dec. 1964 and April 1965), Hawkeye joined the ranks of the Avengers in The Avengers #16 (May 1965).
An expert acrobat, military-trained combatant, and master assassin, Barton can stand toe-to-toe with some of the best fighters around. He is also a master tactician and spy—the Avengers face quite a bit of difficulty when Hawkeye works for Loki and turns his plans against them.
In the comics, Hawkeye adopted the Ronin identity at one of the darkest times of his life. In the modernized Ultimate universe, just as in the MCU, the trigger was the death of his entire family. Hawkeye turned into a Punisher figure, seeking out criminals and murdering them in his own form of justice.
The Black Widow was one of Nick Fury's most trusted agents. Fury's growing concern about HYDRA prompted him to send the Widow on a deep undercover mission as one of their top lieutenants. This required her to betray her partner, Hawkeye, whom she enjoyed working with.
Yelena Belova is an anti-hero and major protagonist in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, appearing as the deuteragonist of Black Widow and a former antagonist in the miniseries Hawkeye.
Black Widow first became associated with Bucky Barnes as the Soviet assassin Winter Soldier and later became romantically involved with Bucky during his stint as Captain America.
Clinton Francis "Clint" Barton, better known as Hawkeye, is a former special agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., where he worked under the supervision of Phil Coulson. Assigned by Nick Fury to watch over the Tesseract, he was brainwashed by Loki during the destruction of Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S.
Although Nick Fury sent him to protect Spider-Man from Beetle, Hawkeye dislikes Spider-Man because of his immaturity and cockiness.
Why did Ronin/Hawkeye kill the guy in Avengers: Endgame? Clint was suffering from deep depression at losing his family, and then realized that while his innocent family was murdered, there were still criminals who weren't killed by Thanos. Angry at the unfairness of this, he went on a rampage against criminals.
Hawkeye's finale made canon for the MCU something fans have been theorizing about for quite some time: not only is Hawkeye/Clint Barton's (Jeremy Renner) wife Laura Barton (Linda Cardellini) a former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, she's actually Agent 19, also known as Mockingbird.
In the comics, Agent 19 is the alias used by Bobbi Morse before she leaves S.H.I.E.L.D. to become a superhero. Eventually, Bobbi starts using the codename Mockingbird and joins the Avengers.
Hawkeye's Villain Twist Subverted The MCU's Oldest Bad Guy Obsession. Eleanor Bishop being the villain in Hawkeye breaks the MCU's long tradition of superhero daddy issues by making Kate's mother the antagonist.
Hawkeye isn't the strongest Avenger. In fact, he's probably the weakest member of the team. He's a guy who is good with a bow and arrow, as he admits in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Even among the members of the team who don't have superpowers, Hawkeye doesn't stack up.
Ronin, a masked vigilante who tracks down and slaughters criminals, is the alias Hawkeye uses in Avengers: Endgame after he loses his family in Thanos' universe-altering snap.
Thor, the god of Thunder, was undoubtedly the most powerful member of the original Avengers. His power continues to grow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Hawkeye's greatest villain and a villain who has a lot of connections to the Marvel Universe has to be William Cross, aka Crossfire.
Hated: Ronin Storyline
To try to even the score, Clint takes on the Ronin persona and seeks out egregious and murderous criminals and kills them. The MCU didn't take enough time building up this storyline for Clint, and the audience hated seeing him as a killer even if he was only killing bad people.
Created by writer Allan Heinberg and artist Jim Cheung, Bishop first appeared in Young Avengers #1 (April 2005). She is the third character and first female to take the Hawkeye name, after Clint Barton of the Avengers and Wyatt McDonald of the Squadron Supreme.

Even stripped of his tools, Hawkeye packs a punch, having mastered the martial arts and hand-to-hand combat, thanks to his friend and mentor Captain America. During a brief stint under the codename Goliath, Barton makes use of fellow Avenger Hank Pym's size-changing Pym particles to grow to giant-size.
THE BLACK WIDOW AND CAPTAIN AMERICA KISS.
Black Widow decides that they have to kiss pronto because she sees the STRIKE guys and wants to steer clear of them. According to her, "Public displays of affection make people very uncomfortable." Logic!
