When we set out on a journey of exploration
and discovery with Hawkman twelve months ago, we wondered how the hero we know
as Carter Hall would be changed. How will his story be written this time? What
kind of hero will writer Robert Venditti and artist Bryan Hitch bring us? The answer
turns out to be everything and nothing, both at the same time. The core of
Hawkman remains unchanged. He is the superhero of flight. He is the superhero
of the sky. He carries a mace. He is from Egypt. He is from Thanagar. Shiera is
the love of his life. He is an archaeologist. He remains the hero we’ve always
known.
