Hawkeye (Katherine "Kate" Bishop) is a fictional superheroine appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. She is a member of the Young Avengers, a team of superheroes in the Marvel Comics' shared universe, the Marvel Universe. 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. Her costume appearance is patterned on the first Hawkeye and Mockingbird.

Hawkeye first appeared in Young Avengers #1 (April, 2005). The issue was scripted by Allan Heinberg and drawn by Jim Cheung.

Alongside Clint Barton, Kate Bishop co-stars in Matt Fraction and David Aja's series Hawkeye (2012).

Hawkeye appeared in the 2013 Young Avengers series by Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie.

Kate Bishop co-starred with Clint Barton in the "All-New Hawkeye" series by Jeff Lemire and Ramon Perez (2015).

Kate stars in her own Hawkeye book in the 2016 Fall Marvel Now! Lineup.

Young Avengers Special revealed that sometime prior to joining the team Kate Bishop was brutally attacked in (what appears to be) Central Park. At first, the incident left Kate traumatized, but then it spurred her to engage in intense combat training. So far the team is unaware of this incident as Kate only told her therapist and Jessica Jones. The exact nature of the attack is not made clear—only the initial ambush is shown on panel.
