The lesser known 'trick arrows' of Clint "Hawkeye" Barton.

1. The Trip Arrow: Upon impact releases a fine mist comprised of laughing gas and lysergic acid diethylamide. Used only once in combat, to calm a rampaging Hulk after Doctor Bruce Banner accidentally inhaled some quality 'Peruvian Snow' at Studio 54. This resulted in the Hulk attacking random hallucinations, giggling uncontrollably and becoming transfixed by the 'motion waves' off his incredible gamma punches while roaring - "Hulk tripping his balls off!"

The arrow was subsequently outlawed and the Avengers learned a valuable lesson about the perils of LSD.

2. The Shrinking Arrow: Designed by Hank Pym to shrink down to subatomic levels after being fired. Seen in West Coast Avengers # 38 when Hawkeye famously shot Kang's 'Doomsday Neutrino' out of thin air while blindfolded. That's what we mean by world's greatest archer, kids.

3. The Zen Arrow: Has never been used because it does not exist and is therefore the most powerful arrow in Hawkeye's amazing arsenal. This arrow can actually kill an idea or causes enlightenment in those it strikes.

4. The Ghost Arrow: Hawkeye won this one from Doctor Strange in a friendly game of Texas Hold 'Em at the Sanctum Sanctorum. An 'ancient Apache arrow', blessed by a great War Shaman and capable of striking incorporeal threats. Employed against such supernatural foes as 'Wraith Master', 'The Steel Poltergeist' and 'Phantom Mussolini.'

5. The Time Arrow: Capable of being fired across entire spans of centuries and accurate to within .00025 of a picosecond. Given to Hawkeye by Indra Richards (Reed and Sue's great-great granddaughter) and used to 'collapse' Mologo the Insatiable - a sentient, time traveling black hole that was threatening to devour the entire late 20th century.

6. The Vibro-Massage Arrow: Mockingbird's favorite. 'Nuff said, true believers.

7. The Song Arrow: Upon being fired will orbit around a targets head while blasting anything from a Bach concerto to contemporary pop. Though not terribly effective on its own, was crucial in stopping the Slothnaut from becoming the mayor of New York.

8. The Babel Arrow: Capable of translating over eighty-seven different known languages,(including binary, Kree and Esperanto). This arrow is deployed by shooting it over a crowded room, where from its shaft a helicopter propeller emerges from the shaft and a tiny microphone begins squawking out a translation. However these translations can be prone to misinterpretation and led to the now infamous Kree-French War.

9. The Smack Arrow: Simply put this is an arrow whose point has a mechanical hand that 'speed slaps' an opponent across the face before impacting harmlessly off their head. Not used so much for supervillains or other threats, but rather whenever Hawkeye is annoyed with the poor service he may receive at a restaurant or when someone is talking loudly in a movie theater.

10. The Amnesia Arrow: Capable of wiping out the last 96 hours of a target's memory. Sometimes referred to as 'the Shore Leave Arrow' and 'the What Arrow?' It was by this rarely utilized weapon that Hawkeye was able to defeat the Annihilape, making her forget why she was fighting some guy dressed as a spandexed Robin Hood or how she came to be robbing the Bronx Zoo with the Titanium Man in the first place. Well... the exploding arrow probably helped too.


The Extendz Arrow - just one of the mighty (and long) arrows used by the amazing archer of amazingness in his never ending battle against the elusive female orgasm!

I think "Kree-French War" is my favorite!

Quite the cross-over as I recall, where Derrida and Machine Man have to team up to stop the Uni-Mind:
