In Celebration of Action Comics No. 1000

The comic that started it all, Action Comics No. 1 was released on May 3, 1938. In the 80 years and 1000 issues of Action Comics,  Hawkman and Hawkwoman appeared with Superman on the cover of Action Comics No. 588. The comic was released on February 26, 1987. The cover was inked by John Byrne and colored by Tom Ziuko. Earlier this year, I was given the opportunity to purchase the original cover from Tom Ziuko himself. It's a thrill to own a piece of history and the cover is absolutely beautiful. Tom Ziuko has some more pieces for sale so go check the links too all the pieces on our Hawkworld Facebook group here.

Hawkman No. 2 Cover Released!

Hawkworld's Review of Metal

The Metal series is over. What a mind-tripping odyssey it was. It’s almost been exactly a year since we first heard about Scott Snyder’s bombastic idea of a series that centered on the metals, mainly the Nth Metal, of the DC Universe. As a Hawkman fan, I’ll have to admit I was less than optimistic about the event, and the last thing I wanted to see was the element that gave Hawkman his powers being given to the omnipresent Batman. After seeing my Tweets voicing my negative thoughts about the series, Snyder was kind enough to send me a message, saying that he was bringing back Hawkman in a huge way, to trust him and support the series. I'll admit it wasn’t easy. Hawkman has really gotten the short end of the mace these last few years, and I was starting to wonder if it was worth following DC Comics at all. But I followed the series, thinking that if Hawkman didn’t come back through this series, then maybe it was time to move on. But knowing me, I would probably still have been around. I love the character too much to just give up.

DC Comics Announces New Hawkman Series!

Finally! Washington Post announced on March 14, Wednesday that DC Comics will be starting a new Hawkman series on June 13th. The writer will be Robert Venditti (Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corp) and the art will be done by Bryan Hitch (Hawkman Found), Andrew Currie (Justice League) and Alex Sinclair (Hawkman Found! 

Hawkman will be flying into his own new comic book from DC Comics later this summer.The new series, partly inspired by Hawkman’s role in the current miniseries “Dark Knights: Metal” and DC’s desire to once again make the character a major player in the DCU, will debut in June and will be written by Rob Venditti and illustrated by Bryan Hitch.“Hawkman is a foundational character in the DCU. Over time I think he’s lost some of that central importance to the DC universe, and we really want to bring that back and make him a marquee character,” Venditti said. “And to do that, we’re going to take him to a lot of unexpected, unexplored places and introduce a lot of new mythology for the character.”
