Hawkworld is now on Reddit!


   Hawkworld is now on Reddit! I've been meaning to do this for a while, but since I have deleted Instagram, Threads, and TwitterX, I thought now is a good time as any. I thought a fellow Hawkfan had started a community a few years ago but I could not find it so I decided to start my own. Feel free to come over and join. Tell your friends and let's build the community together!

Hawkgirl in Superman Legacy News and Updates


   It's official! It's been announced that Hawkgirl will be in DCU's Superman Legacy. The movie is scheduled to be released on July 11, 2025. This post will follow all the news and updates about Hawkgirl's role in the film. The newest posts will be on top. Come back often to check up on the movie's updates for Hawkgirl! 
Here are Isabela Merced's Instagram, IMDb, and Wikipedia pages! 

February 19, 2025: James Gunn Confirms Hawkgirl’s Wings Will Be Organic in the DCU! 
The article from MAXBLZZ reports that James Gunn answered with one word when a fan asked him if Hawkgirl's wings were organic. 
On Threads, a fan asked James Gunn if Hawkgirl’s wings in the Superman trailer were organic or mechanical, as they were struggling with their eyesight and couldn’t tell. They also thanked Gunn for creating a great cinematic universe.
Gunn simply replied, “Organic.”
There is a lot of debate going on about which Hawkgirl Isabela Merced will portray. I personally think that it will be Kendra for the following reasons:
1. Kendra Saunders is Hispanic. Isabela Merced's mother is from Peru and she considers herself more Peruvian than American. 
2. The current Kendra Saunders in the comics has organic wings. Depending on the artist, they look more metallic but I've seen both. 
3. Hawkman is nowhere around. It appears that Hawkgirl is "employed" by Max Lord as some sort of task force. Knowing Hawkman's character, I would have a hard believing that Carter Hall would join this sort of group. I hope we'll find out where Hawkman is in future movies, but I'm guessing Kendra and Carter work together at times but they usually go their own way. That would fit better with the "proper" Kendra-Carter relationship.

What do you guys think? Definitely interested in what your guess would be. Post it in the comment section below!

Dear CBR, Hawkman and Hawkwoman are not over!

   DC's Lex and the City was released on January 29 and we got a bit of a surprise with a 10-page Hawkman story at the very end. I've already written my own review, but I saw a CBR article and I have to give my two cents on that article as well. 

   The CBR article is titled "DC's Most Popular Relationship Is Over" and it pretty much jumps to the conclusion that Hawkgirl (Kendra Saunders) and Hawkwoman (Shayera Hol) have both abandoned Hawkman (Carter Hall), leaving him alone and pining for Shiera. 

   But reading the article, it's not that conclusive. It just states where things stand now. We all know that nothing in comics is ever permanent, so the title is just a bit of a clickbait, but I have to disagree with a couple of things.

Hawkman Story in DC's Lex and the City

Below is a spoiler-rich review of the story, so if you haven't read it yet, go check it out!

   In the current Green Lantern Corps series, Hawkwoman will be making an appearance in March. She will be fighting alongside John Stewart and some of the other Green Lanterns to save Thanagar.

DC Comics Solicitations April 2025

   The DC Comics solicitations for April 2025 are out! The big surprise is that there are, not one, but two comics with Hawkwoman on the cover! After being missing in action for so long, it's nice to see her making something of a comeback. In JSA No. 6, there's the ominous note that one JSA member will not make it out of the Tower of Fate alive. (Better not be Hawkman...)

The Nth Anniversary of Hawkworld!

Hawkworld (Originally called Hawkman Winged Warrior) First Group Banner by Joe Prado

     January 15, 2025 is the Nth anniversary of Hawkworld! I started Hawkworld on Facebook back in 2016 and what a ride it has been. When I was a kid reading comics, I sent out a few letters to the comics, but my letters were never published. I could only dream about interacting with the creators of the characters that I loved reading about. When I began Hawkworld on Facebook, I never expected for that to change. I just wanted to start a place where I could talk about Hawkman and interact with my fellow Hawkfans. What happened is something I never expected, and it still leaves me a bit blown away when I think about all that has happened. Here are some of the highlights during the last nine years with Hawkworld.

Predictions for Hawkworld 2025


Predictions and Hopes for Hawkworld 2025

   It's been a slow few years for Hawkman and Hawkwoman. Ever since the end of the Hawkman series in 2021 and Justice League in 2022, it's been a long run of cameos, cover art appearances, and a few sudden appearances here and there with a line or two at best. Hawkgirl has had it a bit better, with her continued appearances with the Justice League, and the announcement of her role in the upcoming Superman movie. We'll ignore that disastrous Hawkgirl mini-series and just move on like it never happened. 
   So what will we see for the Hawks in 2025? Here are a few bold predictions for 2025.

   JSA No. 2 ended with Hawkman being apparently killed by a demon. With the reincarnation cycle finally ended (Hawkman Vol. V No. 26), this is truly the end of Hawkman or he finds a way out. There are major spoilers ahead so go read the issue first before you read the rest of my review!

Review of Hawkworld 2024

   
   The Year 2024 was another year of waiting, searching, and being disappointed that ended with a bit more to look forward to in 2025. In comics, Hawkman and Hawkgirl appear to be back as regular members of the JSA series, unlike the disastrous, horribly delayed Justice Society series by Geoff Johns that ended mercifully in October. In the movies, Hawkgirl was in and out of the news thanks to the upcoming Superman Legacy film. Here are the highlights of Hawkworld 2024.

The Artists of Hawkman and Hawkgirl

   I put together two montages of many of the artists who have done Hawkman and Hawkgirl over the years. Hawkman and Hawkgirl are characters who have been blessed with some of the greatest artists in comics. I'll list the full names of the artists below. If there is someone you think I should add next time, feel free to let me know in the comments!

The JSA have a lead on a KOBRA facility preparing for their next terrorist attack. But which faction of the team will make it to the facility first, and what will it mean for the future of the world’s first super-team?!

JSA #2 Review

JSA No. 2 (February 2025)
Script: Jeff Lemire
Pencils/Inks: Diego Olortegui
Colors: Luis Guerrero
Letters: Steve Wands
Cover: Diego Olortegui 
Editing: Andrew MarinoMarquis DraperKatie Kubert 

   The new JSA series kicked off with a bang in issue No. 1. Writer Jeff Lemire didn't waste any time getting the action going and in this issue, we get a flashback of how our heroes ended up being attacked by the Injustice Society in separate locations. The Injustice Society is pretty ruthless here and the JSA clearly have their backs up against a wall. It's nice to see Hawkman villains Gentleman Ghost and Shadow Thief showing their stuff. Hawkman (Carter Hall) and Hawkgirl (Kendra Saunders) are outside the Tower of Fate and holding back the army from Hell but they are clearly overwhelmed. The issue ends with Jay Garrick smashed by Solomon Grundy, Jakeem still a coma, and finally Hawkman apparently impaled through the chest with a demon's flaming sword.

Hawkworld on Bluesky!

 Bluesky has been around since 2019. Hawkworld received an invitation for it back in 2021. It was a bit slow at first, but it has really taken off during the last month. Hawkworld is there and trying to post daily. Also, there is a TON of comic book creators jumping on to Bluesky as well! So if you are interested in a rapidly growing social media site and want some Hawk-content, come give Hawkworld a follow and come soar the friendly skies!

JSA #1 Review

JSA No. 1 (January 2025)

 
   The new JSA series has kicked off! This review will be solely from a Hawkman/Hawkgirl point of view so if you're looking for a more complete review, please check out the other sites. 

   Jeff Lemire's series has finally kicked off and to be honest, it's a bit of a disappointment, from a Hawkfan's perspective of course. It appears that the Infinity INC and the Justice Society are together now and the younger heroes are trying to figure out why the veteran heroes suddenly vanished and where they went. While they squabble over how things should be done, it's revealed that the older members are in the Tower of Fate. Alan Scott, Jay Garrick, Wildcat, and Dr. Fate are trying to find a way out while Hawkman and Hawkgirl are outside fighting off the "locals." At the end of the issue, we find out that the Injustice Society may be behind it.

Art by Diego Olortegui

   It has been announced that a new JSA/Infinity Inc. series by Jeff Lemire will start a month after the current Justice Society by Geoff Johns ends. Currently, the last issue of Justice Society is scheduled to end in September, but the series has been plagued by delays since it began so it could be postponed again. The art will be by Diego Olortegui.
