August 2012"Lucky: a Clint Barton/Hawkeye adventure"
Script: Matt FractionThis series has a lot of non-linear storytelling. This issue starts out easy with just 2 timeframes run in parallel, which I'll simplify a lot.Hawkeye (Clint Barton) in his recent Avengers costume falls backwards out of a window many floors up. [...]
September 2012"The vagabond code: a Clint Barton/Kate Bishop/Hawkeye adventure"
Script: Matt FractionThis issue's non-linearity is just the standard 'open with a page from the middle of the story' thing.

October 2012"Cherry"

[...]
February 2013"My bad penny"
