Aldis Hodge's Hawkman coming to Funko Pop!

 This was going around on Facebook and Twitter. It appears that Funko Pop will be releasing the Black Adam characters, including Aldis Hodges' Hawkman. It's possible that the figures will appear in July since that was the original release date before it got pushed back to October. Here is the article about the news. 

Hawkman One-Shot in a Black Adam Tie-in

 It has been announced that DC Comics will be releasing Black Adam - The Justice Society Files: Hawkman on July 5th. The 48-page comic will feature two stories; Hawkman and Isis. Here are the details of Hawkman's story.

Long ago, Hawkman was the leader of the Justice Society, but what is he now? Still a hero, or another relic in a museum? Everything changes when he finds himself haunted by not only the past, but also the vengeful spirit of a wayward thief. Will this Gentleman Ghost be the death of Hawkman or will he deliver a warning from beyond the grave? The road to Black Adam begins here.

  It will be written by Cavan Scott with art by Scot Eaton and Norm Rapmund. Here is the link to the announcement. 

A Guide Through the History of Hawkman and Hawkwoman/Hawkgirl (Part 3 is up!)

Cliff Chiang

Hawkman and Hawkgirl are two of the most iconic characters in American comics history. In the 80+ years since their first appearances, there have been almost 600 comics that featured one or both heroes. They have also been a part of many superhero teams and numerous crisis/crossover events that DC Comics has specialized in over the last few decades. They have been through many reboots, rewrites, and restarts. For a new comic book reader, it's natural not to know where to start with a character that has been around for 80+ years. That's where I come in. I have been a Hawk fan since 1977 when I discovered Hawkman on the back of an out-of-date 1976 DC Calendar. I have followed the twists, turns, flips, and flops over the years to keep it in order. This article is to help you see the amazing journey that these two characters have been on. I'll post a link to the list of comic books that they have a prominent role in, so if you want to look for something and the dates, you'll probably find it there. Enjoy the journey!

 Going over the history between Hawkman and Black Adam. These two were once like brothers, but something happened to make them enemies. 

Video: Should Hawkman be Black?

 Here are my thoughts on Hawkman being played by a Black actor. 

Black Reign (JSA/Hawkman 2004)

 In 2004, Geoff Johns wrote a six-issue story that crossover over in the JSA and Hawkman series. It told the story of how Black Adam took over Khandaq and how the Justice Society went to stop him. It was one of the highlights of both series. The upcoming Black Adam movie (July 2022) will probably take its main storyline from this series. It's a fantastic story that is well worth picking up. You can find the collection of the six issues in the JSA #8 trade paperback. Another official Black Reign trade is scheduled to come out in June. Definitely worth picking up!
