Biography[]

Son of an Avenger[]

Raised by Clint Barton[]

Cooper Barton was born to Clint and Laura Barton in Iowa, where he lived in a farmhouse with his mother and younger sister, Lila. Natasha Romanoff was the only other person to be aware of Clint having a family and became a close friend to them, even developing an aunt-like relationship with Barton and Lila.^[6]

Ultron Offensive[]

When his father arrived home with the Avengers, Barton and Lila happily greeted him with hugs. The two were formally introduced to the Avengers and were happy to see Natasha Romanoff again.

Later when his father returned home after retiring from the Avengers, Barton and Lila were reading books on the couch. Shortly afterwards, his mother gave birth to Nathaniel Barton^[6] and the family relocated to a new farmhouse.^[7]

Snap and Blip[]

In 2018, Barton and his family had a picnic, during which he and his younger brother, Nathaniel played catch. Suddenly, Barton disintegrated from the Snap.

Five years later, Barton and his family were restored to life in the Blip. Shortly afterwards, Barton was reunited with his father.

A few days later, Barton and his family attended Tony Stark's funeral at Stark's home.^[7]

Christmas Holidays[]

Vacation in New York City[]

In December 2024, Cooper Barton traveled to New York City with his father, brother, and sister. While in New York, the Bartons attended a production of Rogers: The Musical at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre. Midway through the play, Clint excused himself to the bathroom and never came back. Lila went to check on him, and Barton and his brother decided shortly after to leave the play as well. The family all agreed to abandon the show to explore other attractions in the city.

The Barton family went to eat dinner at a nearby Chinese restaurant. While their, Barton's mother called Clint, and the family explained that they had left the musical early, and expressed that they wished Laura was there with them. Afterwards, the Bartons discussed their plans leading up to Christmas Day. Clint took suggestions from each of his kids for activities, to which Barton chose wearing ugly Christmas sweaters. Their waiter soon approached the table and told the family that the restaurant would cover their bill, as thanks for Clint's heroics during the Battle of New York, so Barton thanked the waiter for his generosity.

After dinner, the family went to see the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree. Afterwards, the family returned to their hotel room, where Barton and Lila sat down to watch the television. They turned on the TV to a news report about the reappearance of Ronin in New York, although all that the siblings took from the news was that it was cool that the ninja saved a dog.^[8]

The next morning, the family packed their luggage and loaded it in a car. Clint had to stay in New York to find the Ronin Suit, although he denied Ronin being the reason he needed to stay. Clint left Barton in charge of his siblings in his absence, although afterwards he told Lila that she was actually the one in charge. The siblings were then driven to the airport, where they boarded a plane and flew home to Iowa.^[1]

Missing His Father[]

Barton and his siblings were picked up at the airport by their mother and returned to their home. That night, Barton, his siblings, and his mother constructed gingerbread houses. During this time, Laura stepped away to briefly talk to Clint on the phone, who informed her he would be stuck in New York for another day.^[1]

Two days later, Barton sat nearby, playing on his phone, as his parents spoke over the phone again. After she ended the call, she informed Barton and his siblings that their father was going to be in New York for yet another day, much to the disappointment of Barton and the others.^[2]

Christmas Day[]

On Christmas Day, Barton and his siblings greeted their father at the door as they finally returned home from New York City. Barton helped his father carry in the presents he brought, met Kate Bishop, and then began to pet Lucky, who his father had brought home. With the Barton family now reunited, Barton and his siblings began opening their presents.^[9]

Personality[]

Despite being the older sibling, Barton tends to be more laid-back than his responsible sister and his baby brother. Barton does care for his family and tried to look out for his siblings when their father sent them home without him so he could deal with the Tracksuit Mafia.

Facilities[]

• Clint Barton's Homestead: Barton lives in a home in Iowa with his parents and siblings. The homestead is in a remote location, unknown to the public, and previously unknown to the government until the Avengers Civil War, to protect Barton and his family against potential threats relating to his father's work as a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent or Avenger.
