jgarmann99: Hi, the Johns run is about to be omnibussed (is that a word?),is that a good starting point? Thanks.

The Geoff Johns run has been released several times in different formats over the years. Not sure why they are doing it yet again. The best starting point is Robert Venditti's Hawkman series. It's in 28 issues or 4 trades. Here's a list of all the trades and ominbuses with all the contents listed. 

Jet-Let4606: Whats your favourite Hawk story? Do you prefer the alien warriors or the reincarnation origins? Do you like where the franchise is currently?

I have many favorite stories; Hawkworld Vol. 1 (1989), Legend of the Hawkman (2000), The Return of Hawkman (JSA No. 23-25, 2001), and the entirety of Hawkman Vol. V (201802021).
I have no favorite version, but I wouldn't mind seeing the current Carter Hall set up his base onThanagar. Best of both worlds. 
I love where Venditti left Hawkman and Hawkwoman back together in Hawkman Vol. V. And with Kendra far, far away. Currently, for reasons unknown, Carter is back with Kendra as members of the Justice Society and Hawkwoman on her own at Thanagar. I hope they put Hawkman and Hawkwoman back together soon.

Hawkman among Worst Ever Retcons

Hawkman Vol. 3 No. 13

Zero Hour: Crisis in Time No. 3

Retcons in comics are as common as fleas on a dog. They've been doing it forever and it seems like they need to do it once every two or three years lately. Hawkman has been a part of, and often a victim of that process. He has been retconned numerous times over the past few decades and it takes a comics book fan with a doctorate in Hawkology from the University of Thanagar to sort it all out. Seven hells, that's part of the fun of being a Hawkfan. 

The Story of Shayera Hol/Hawkwoman and Kendra Saunders/Hawkgirl

By Tim Board

   Since the release of the Dark Nights Metal series in 2017-18, Hawkfans have been wondering when Hawkman and Hawkgirl were going to get back together. The current Hawkman series kicked off in June 2018, but Hawkgirl was not a part of the series. We saw her in some of her past lives; Chay-ara, Shayera Thal, and Sherra, but we never saw her as Hawkgirl in the first 18 issues. That all changed in the final 11 issues. We also saw Hawkwoman and Hawkgirl face off in the Justice League series (#14-16). This article is to explain who Hawkgirl and Hawkwoman are and their connection to Hawkman.

DC's 45 Strongest Chracters: Where Does Hawkman Rank

   CBR recently put out a list of DC's 45 strongest characters in the DCU. To be honest, I wasn't expecting to see Hawkman ion this list but he just snuck in at No. 44. That's pretty impressive, considering all the powerhouses that the DCU has. The Nth Metal added with Hawkman's expertise with the metal is a pretty potent mix. The article doesn't even mention his ultimate weapon; the Claw of Horus. If you add that, he would probably move up even a few more spots. We recently saw Hawkman give Black Adam (No. 6 on the list) a good fight in the latter's movie, and Hawkman also sent Superman hurtling into a mountain back in Superman Batman Public Enemies (2009). Let's hope we get to see Hawkgirl showcased just as well in the upcoming movie.
