R: Fantastic [and Terrific] #74 (IPC/Odhams UK, 1968), artist unknown (Don Heck?)
(Click picture to Big Ben-size)
In the United Kingdom, Fantastic and Teriffic reprinted Thor, Hulk, Avengers, X-Men and Iron Man comics. Fantastic, like most British comics, came out weekly and had black-and-white interiors. Still, for ninepence, that's a heckuva lotta Hawkeye.
And, just for comparison's sake, the shamelessly recolored Marvel Triple Action (March 1976):

Hawkeye should've always had his own title. If that no-good Green Arrow can keep getting high-profile gigs, so should Clint!
The Fantastic #74's headshot is a flipped and re-inked Heck from the cover of Avengers #19.
The full-body shot is re-inked Kirby from the cover of Tales of Suspense #64.
How's that? ;-)
