DC Comics' solicitations for September 2026 have been released. There were zero mentions of Hawkman, Hawkwoman, or Hawkgirl in any of the current issues, but I managed to find Hawkman on a couple of covers and a double-mention of a Hawkman comic in a DC Finest book. Also, there was no mention of him, but Absolute Hawkman's recent appearances are in Absolute Superman. Wish there was more to report, but that's it for September. The wait continues. Keep soaring, Hawkfans!
DC Special #5 Facsimile Edition
Release Date: September 16
"Four of his own favorite works are presented for your approval by the master himself, Joe Kubert! Featuring an artist jam homage variant cover in honor of Joe’s 100th birthday with art by his family and students—including Adam Kubert, Andy Kubert, Emma Kubert, Amanda Conner, Steve Lieber, and more! A must-have for any fan!"Note: The only book that will actually be released in September. The rest are in November. Absolute Superman Vol. 3: The Neverending Begins
Release Date: November 3
In the shocking aftermath of the Battle of Kansas, Superman wrestles with profound changes to his life, his allies, and even his costume. And there’s no time to rest—the Lazarus Corporation may be in retreat, but its hidden caches of weapons and world-ending secrets remain. The most dangerous of all? The sarcophagus of the legendary King Shazam!
Don’t miss the start of a new epic that will change the hierarchy of power in the Absolute Universe. Collects Absolute Superman #15-21.
DC fails to mention it here, so I'll do the honors. These issues will include Absolute Hawkman's origin and his battles with Superman and Black Adam.
DC Finest: Events: Legends Part OneRelease Date: November 3
"The first major crossover to follow the reality-shattering events of Crisis on Infinite Earths begins here in an all-new DC Finest series! Emerging from the chaos of multi-dimensional destruction, a new generation of superheroes is rising. But before they can take their place at the front line of Earth’s defenders, they must first confront Darkseid and somehow counter his insidious plan to eradicate the very concept of heroism from the world!
Written and illustrated by a host of bona fide comics legends—including John Ostrander, Len Wein, John Byrne, Roy Thomas, Karl Kesel, and Todd McFarlane—DC Finest: Events: Legends Part One collects Legends #1-3, Infinity, Inc. #34-36, Cosmic Boy #1-2, Hawkman #5-6, Green Lantern Corps #207-208, Secret Origins #10, Batman #401, Detective Comics #568, The Fury of Firestorm #55-56, Blue Beetle #9, Justice League of America #258, and Hawkman #6."
Note: The Hawkman series from the mid 80s (The Shadow War of Hawkman and Hawkman Vol. 2) has never been collected in any way, but Hawkman #5-6 shows up here. This is a bit concerning because it could mean that DC Comics is only going to release it in bits and pieces and not completely collect in one volume. Let's hope that's not the case.
Justice League of America: The Bronze Age Omnibus Vol. 4Release Date: November 17
This fourth volume of adventures continues Gerry Conway’s tenure writing for the world’s greatest superheroes. Collects Justice League of America #183-206, tie-in stories from Wonder Woman #291-293, The New Teen Titans #4, The Fury of Firestorm #4, The Flash #289-293, Action Comics #534-535, and the Secret Origin of the Justice League minicomic that was sold exclusively through the Leaf Candy Company!Note: Hawkman and Hawkgirl are in a few of the JLA issues.
That's it for September 2026.
