Question: what is the relationship between hawkeye and black widow?
Answer: In the Ultimates universe, the duo are often paired in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Black Ops division. Similar to the MCU variation of the characters, they aren't romantic. Instead, the two are strictly platonic. During this time, Black Widow has a dalliance with Iron Man and Hawkeye maintains a normal relationship with a civilian.
