Hawkworld Hits One Million Views!

Hawkworld.org hits ONE MILLION views!

Hawkworld opened on November 20, 2017, Hawkman's 78th anniversary, and the number of daily views of the site has steadily increased over the years. At first, it was a good day if the blog got 100 views a day. It gradually increased and in May 2021, I got the Hawkworld.org domain. This really had an effect on the views and the site now gets anywhere from 3k to 7k views a day, or over 100,000 views a month. I thought it would take a lot longer to reach this goal, so I'm amazed Hawkworld has reached 1,000,000 views so soon. 

DC Comics Solicitations 2025 December (Hawkman and Hawkgirl Report)

   DC Comics' solicitations for December 2025 have been released and here are the issues that mention Hawkman and Hawkgirl or have either of them on the cover. Sadly, still no news of any kind of a series for either hero so the wait continues. While we wait, let's pick thru the mountain of Bat-related comics and see if we can find where the Hawks will turn up. 

Hawkworld Comic Book Dividers

 My comic book dividers for my Hawkman comics! 

A few people have asked me about my comic book dividers that they see in my Hawkworld videos. There's nothing to it really. I just took some contruction paper, printed out small pics of the number 1 issues, posted them on the end, measured the paper to fit the shelves and that's it! Helps me keep my comics in order and easy to find.

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. 

  

Hawkgirl in Superman (2025) News and Updates

Hawkgirl Returning for Superman Sequel

 It appears that Hawkgirl (played by Isabela Merced) will be returning for the Superman sequel. The sequel is titled Superman Man of Tomorrow and the announced release date is July, 9, 2027. 

It looks like the Justice Gang will return in James Gunn's Superman sequel as Hawkgirl teases her return in Man of Tomorrow: "See you soon" 

DC Finest Trade Paperbacks: Finding the Hawkman/Hawkgirl Books

   DC Comics announced a new line of trade paperbacks last year, and the DC Finest series has been releasing about three books a month now for almost a year. The first Hawkman book was released in August and the general reception of the books by comics fans seems to be good. Not only are they barraging us with their Trinity but the other heroes are also getting some books out there so this is definitely a step in the right direction. I'm going to start a DC Finest watch for Hawkman books for the blog so if you are looking for the DC Finest books with Hawkman and/or Hawkgirl click the logo below in the right column of the desktop version of the blog and it will bring you back to this page. 

   Hawkman Book Two has not been announced yet. Will we get a second book that completes Hawkman Vol. 1? That probably depends on how well the first book sells. So get out there and pick it up, Hawkfans! 

The Complete List of Hawkman/Hawkgirl Comics

 Here is a list of every Hawkman and Hawkgirl comic, one-shot, and mini-series that have been released since their debut in 1939. Issues in other comics that have important information about the Hawks have also been included. Each comic is listed by the release date. Click here or montage above to view the list! 

Also, I have put together a list of every Hawkman/Hawkgirl trade paperback, collection and omnibus that have been released over the years. They are also listed in the order of the release dates and the contents of each book are also listed. Click here or the montage below.

How to tell the difference between Hawkgirl (Kendra Saunders) and Hawkwoman (Shayera Hol).

Kendra Saunders (Hawkgirl) and Shayera Hol (Hawkwoman)

   The differences between Hawkgirl (Kendra Saunders) and Hawkwoman (Shayera Hol)! Some fans appear to be confused by which is which so here are the basics. Side note: The Superman movie version has absolutely nothing to do with either of them. Completely unrelated Gunn version. So...sorry DCU fans. That's a whole unrelated matter entirely. It could have been, but the movies decided to go with a version completely new and unrelated to anything in the comics.

Superman Follow-Up Projects Includes Hawkgirl (Possibly)

James Gunn Reveals a Major Detail About Superman Sequel and Broader Plans for ‘Superman Saga’ 

Talking about the follow-up to the Superman movie, Gunn stated that the characters we will see in the movie will feature the ones we have already met in Superman, and will meet before the follow-up film is released.

Well, this sounds promising. Hawkgirl hasn't been mentioned specifically, but it appears that not will she be appearing again in future Superman movies, but there is also a chance that a project involving her or the Justice Gang is in the works. 

DC has yanked that football out from under us before, so I wouldn't hold my breath just yet, but when Hawkfans have to take what we can get, and right, no news or vague updates is better than a solid no. Wing crossed from a big announcement soon. First, I guess we'll have to check into the second season of Peacemaker and see if Hawkgirl has any more of a role than what we have already seen in the trailer. The Peacemaker series started today so check it out! 

The DCU's 'Superman' saga will include four movies 

ACCORDING TO JAMES GUNN: THERE WILL BE FOUR FILMS IN THE SUPERMAN SAGA

Hawkgirl Scenes from Superman

 DapeFury on YouTube just posted a video collecting most of Hawkgirl's scenes from the Superman movie. I'm kind of shocked that it's only a minute and 41 seconds long. Her scenes were a little longer than that, but yeah. We didn't get much of her in the movie. Isabela Merced did make an impact though, so hopefully we'll get to see her story more in future projects. It would be a shame for it to end here.

Collecting is one of the joys of a superhero/comics fan! 
 I've been a fan of Hawkman since 1977 and I've been collecting Hawkman-related stuff ever since. I recently had to downsize my collection to make some room but I hope to pull everything out of storage and put it back up again soon! 

Isabela Merced Wants a Hawkgirl Movie

   

   Superman is wraping up its run in the theaters and it appears to be the success that James Gunn and company were hoping for. The critics and fan reviews for the movie were pretty good, so we could start seeing some green lights for other projects to start showing up. Isabela Merced's role as Hawkgirl was pretty limited, but she did make an impression with the fans with what she was given to do. The question now is what will come next. 

Hawkman is Perfect for DCU's Justice Gang (Collider Article)

    Now that Superman's theatrical run is coming to a close, there are a lot of news and rumors coming out about the next heroes to make their debut in the DCU. Since Hawkgirl was in Superman, it's only natural that some of those rumors would involve Hawkman.

Ask me anything about Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Hawkwoman, or anything else related to Hawkworld! I’ll do my best to answer and post the question and answer here on Hawkworld.org!

Benjamin Thomas: How do the wings work? I know there are Nth-Metals symbols on the chests, but how the Hawks fly with wings? How do they make them move?

Over the years it's changed a bit, but basically the Nth metal is in the helmet, harness and belt. Currently, it's also in the wings and mace. The Nth metal appears to work differently for the user, but it basically negates gravity, increases strength, and gives healing powers. The wings are more for speed and agility in the air. If Hawkman lost his wings, he could still fly, just not as fast or controlled. The Nth metal is controlled by the mind of whoever is wearing it. So Hawkman can just think, and his wings pop out of his harness or his mace will fly back to him.
The wings are a bit differnt for Hawkman/Hawwoman and Hawkgirl. While Hawkman and Hawkwoman's wings come out of their uniform or harness, Hawkgirl's is more organic and come right out of her back when she needs them. Here's my article on Nth metal. Discovering Nth Metal

How to add Hawkman and Hawkwoman to the DCU

  With Superman getting a successful kickoff to the DCU, there will probably be a lot more DCU news coming in the next few months. Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced) got enough screen time to make fans want more. Currently, there is no news, rumors or anything else out there that involves the Hawks. The only thing we've seen is that Merced mentioned the desire to see Hawkgirl/Kendra Saunders get involved with GreenLantern/John Stewart. What's the best way to get the Hawks involved in the DCU?
