X Is For Show -- A Comic Reading Experience

Echo finally has her own show! It’s been a wild ride since the debut of Maya Lopez in 2021’s Hawkeye series. Between rumors of rewrites (true), reshoots (true), and problems with quality (blatantly untrue), the series dropped the full five episode season in early 2024 on Disney+ & Hulu. So who is Echo and what is she doing in the MCU? We breakdown her origins in the comics and TV show, that way-too-short but great cameo, the series itself, plus that MAJOR ending.
