Collects Hawkeye: Freefall (2020) #1-6. Who is Ronin? When a mysterious and ruthless new Ronin starts tearing a destructive path through the city, suspicion immediately falls on Hawkeye — but Clint Barton has more to worry about than who’s wearing his old costume. After a clash with the Hood ends badly, Hawkeye takes on a new mission that places him in the crosshairs of one of New York’s most dangerous villains. But Clint and Ronin are on a collision course — and only one will walk away! As things around him get ever more dangerous, Clint is pushed to make some tough — and probably really bad — decisions. With everything falling apart, can he find a way to get through this crisis with clean hands — or will he be forced to return to his criminal ways? Featuring Spider-Man, Daredevil, Captain America and more of Hawkeye’s Avenging allies!

In the newly revised and updated edition of Tales from the Iowa Hawkeyes Sidelines, fans can indulge in nearly 100 years of Iowa football history, beginning with the unbeaten teams of 1921 and 1922. Readers will share the vivid memories of captain Erwin Prasse and teammate George “Red” Frye as they flash back to the 1939 Ironmen, led by Heisman Trophy-winner Nile Kinnick. Hawkeye fans can also read about Forest Evashevski’s two Rose Bowl championship teams in the 1950s, the resurgence of the program under coach Hayden Fry in the ’80s and ’90s, and the marvelous 2002 season, during which the team won a record eleven games. Ron Maly reveals the intriguing scenarios that brought All-Americans Calvin Jones and Alex Karras to Iowa, the touching story of how former star Bob Stoops placed his Rose Bowl ring in his father’s casket, and why the 1985 Hawkeyes were the top-ranked team in America for five weeks. Iowa fans will follow Maly on a nostalgic trip with their beloved team through over a century of triumphs and tragedies, fun and frustration, and legend and lore in Tales from the Iowa Hawkeyes Sidelines.

Fred "Duke" Slater was the greatest African American football player of the first half of the 20th century. Born into poverty, he developed into a two-time All-American tackle at the University of Iowa from 1918 to 1921. When the College Football Hall of Fame opened decades later, Duke was the only African American elected in the inaugural class. He then became the first black lineman in National Football League history in 1922, embarking on a remarkable ten-year career in the NFL. Incredibly, Slater was the only African American in the entire NFL for most of the late 1920s, yet he was widely recognized as one of the League's best linemen. But his pioneering influence extended beyond the gridiron. After retirement, he broke ground in the legal field as just the second black judge in Chicago history. On the field or on the bench, the inspirational life of Judge Duke Slater is a true American success story.
