Hawkeye?

Okay, according to Wikipedia, the new Hawkeye, Francis Barton, is the son of the old Hawkeye, Clint Barton, and Mockingbird. Why, then, does he have WHITE HAIR? Neither of his parents had white hair, they were both blondes. I haven't seen any official statement other than the Wiki article that says who his mother is... could it be that it's not actually Mockingbird? The only white-haired heroine I can think of who's not already spoken for would be Black Cat, but that doesn't seem to be viable either, as AFAIK she's never even met Hawkeye... Any thoughts/explanations?

Snoogans.

Maybe he just bleached his hair?
Maybe he has gone prematurely gray from living an a "post-apocalyptic" society where he is constantly being hunted and living on the run?
Maybe he is really freakin' old and just looks like a teenager?
Who knows?

It didn't seem to be white to me, but that super light blonde hair that many people have.

And as far as I know, Black Cat wore a wig for her hair.
