Finding Hawkman and Hawkgirl After Each DC Crisis Event

   This year marks the 40th anniversary of the famous, or infamous depending on your point of view, Crisis on Infinite Earths (COIE). Since then, there have been several crisis events to restructure the DC Universe. While it may be all and good for DC Holy Trinity of Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, the "lesser" heroes of the DC Universe have often forgotten and made even more complicated than before. 

  

Hawkman Coming to the DC Absolute Universe in October

 

Absolute Evil was announced a few weeks ago and alert Hawkfans immediately noticed Hawkman on the cover. The villains are having a "go team!" moment, and under thier hands are pictures of heroes that they are going after or have already defeated. Hawkman's picture is there on the bottom left. It's also interesting that his picture is the only one that is not ripped. So what can this mean? He may not be defeated yet. He may be but they didn't bother ripping his picture. He may not even be in the issue at all. Which has happened many, many, many times. 

But then we got some confirmation (thank to Matt B. Lloyd for the heads up!) that Hawkman WILL actually be in the issue. Here is a quote from the PopVerse article.
