Metal 101: Reviewing How DARK NIGHTS: METAL Fits In The DCU Timeline


Catching up on where we are in the Metal event. Lots of Hawk references! Article Link
Sometime in the mid-20th Century, Hawkman and Hawkgirl were so obsessed by the strange Nth Metal and the stories they've been told that they formed a team of scientists and adventurers to study it all. Included in the group was the Blackhawks, the Challengers of the Unknown, Red Tornado, and the Metal Men.Hawkman operated from Blackhawk Island, a place in a hidden pocket from space-time. It took him decades to build the technology needed, but he and his friends eventually were ready to send a team to the "other side" by utilizing Nth Metal.

How A Hawkman Villain Might Be the Key to Dark Nights: Metal

Very little has been teased about the future of Hawkman, but from the few details we have, it’s possible that the version of the character that Geoff Johns established over a decade ago is coming back. The Hawkman on the cover of Hawkman Found looks like Johns’ Hawkman. Kendra Saunders has returned. And now Onimar Synn is back.We don’t know where or when the answers to Metal, the Dark Multiverse, or Hawkman will all be answered, but the reappearance of Onimar Synn could play a major role in connecting everything.

Hawkman Movie Scenario by Tim Board

With the Justice League movie coming out this week, I am reminded of the movie scenario I came up with for Hawkman (Carter Hall and Katar Hol), Hawkgirl (Shiera Saunders) and Hawkwoman (Shayera Thal). I wanted to come up with a scenario that would include all four characters but somehow bring them together, so this is what I came up with. Just having a bit of fun but something to build on! Let me know what you think.

Terri Fox Shares a Childhood Memory of Her Grandfather, Gardner Fox


One of our members of Hawkworld is Terri Fox, the granddaughter of Gardner Fox, the creator of Hawkman. She shared a childhood memory with the group today. She gave me permission to share it with everyone and since today is the anniversary of Hawkman's debut 78 years ago, here it is! 
Hi. I just wanted to share a story about Gardner Fox, if you don’t mind. He was my grandfather. When I was 9 years old he came to Grandparents Day at school. He went to law school but found the practice unfulfilling. He told my class that he watched a bird ðŸ¦… di  dive and snatch something from the ground- and he thought that’s what Justice should look like. Hawkman was published just six months before my father was born.

Hawkman: Still Flying After Seventy-Eight Years

Hawkman: Still Flying After Seventy-Eight Years

By Tim Board
Revelation often comes with a thunderclap, and forces one to take notice. Sometimes it comes quietly, during a quiet afternoon, with a casual view out the window, a small bird, and a tiny twig. Whether it starts with a loud shout or a quiet flutter, a revelation can become something that grabs hold and never lets go. Starting with Gardner Fox’s inspiration in the late 1930s, a character quietly came into existence and even after seventy-eight years, with the amazing creativity and talents of many writers and artists, it still thrives to this day.
