Why HAWKMAN Matters

Almost ten years ago, I wrote this piece about why Hawkman matters to me, and I used to post it on social media on the 1st day of the month for a while. It's been a few years, so I thought I'd share it again. Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension graciously shared it on his comics site and added a few comments. Check it out if you like.

"Tim wrote a piece recently that laid out exactly why Hawkman matters so much to him. I found it genuinely moving because his points are universal. When he says Hawkman, you’ll think of your favorite character. Thing is, though, you’ll be struck by how much he loves this second-tier superhero in particular.
Tim readily agreed to allow me to publish his piece here. He even selected the 13 superb covers you see spread out across this post. With Metal hitting this week, the timing is perfect. And hopefully all this augurs, dare I say it, a new life for Hawkman:"

If you soar into Hawkman's history, you will be surprised what a diverse and interesting character he is. There is certainly no lack of information for this list, and it was hard to limit myself to only 13 things.
