Superman was released yesterday (July 11) here in Japan after a long two-year wait. With Hawkgirl getting her first appearance in a movie, following Hawkman's first in Black Adam back in 2022, I was going to see this movie the first chance I got. It had been a busy week and I was exhausted, but I fought the fatigue and drove the 40 minutes to the nearest theater after work.
Note: There are complete spoilers ahead so if you haven't seen the movie, go see it and come back for the review. (Yes, I think you should defintely see it.)

First Reviews Are Looking Good for Superman Starring Hawkgirl!
RottenTomatoes is usually a site or scale I don't give much merit to, but unfortunately it is still the mainstream's place to see if a movie is good or not so I took a look. Comicbookmovie.com put out an article that compared Superman with all the other Superman movies that have come out over the years, and this new movie came out very well! So far, it's right up there with the first Superman movie that came out in 1978, so that's some high praise right there. Hawkgirl is not mentioned in the article, but hopefully she won't be swallowed up by all the other actors and action going on and can leave her definite mark.

Hawkgirl's Screech!
I'll put this in the Hawkgirl movie news post as well, but this deserves a post of its own! Hawkgirl is wheet-shrieking banshee style in the upcoming Superman movie. From what the little snippet shows, I think she nailed it! Here's the short video of her shrieking and then Isabela Merced talking about it in an interview.

Funko Pop Releasing Hawkgirl (Superman) Figure on July 11!
It's getting released all over the Internet, but it appears that Funko Pop will be released a Hawkgirl figue based on the upcoming Superman movie. It's a limited edition (5000), and I heard that they don't ship overseas. I'll have to check on that shipping news because that would be disappointing. I may have to find a friend to pick up one for me or pay for it at several times the cost on ebay. Due out on July 11!

Gunn Shuts Down Hawkman Spin-Off Plans
A rather depressing article from a site called The Direct came out today. In an article titled "Black Adam 2: Did DC Cancel Dwayne Johnson's Sequel Plan?" (the answer is yes) by Nathan Johnson, we see the details of what Johnson had planned and also the tidbit again about some plans for a Hawkman spinoff.
