Hawkman Armor Display


This is a photo that was posted online from a comicon a few years back. Brin Londo made part of the costume but I'm not sure who made this amazing display.

Hawkman Learns the Language of the Birds (Flash Comics No. 23)

One of my favorite stories from the Golden Age is Flash Comics No. 23 by Gardner Fox and Sheldon Moldoff. In this issue, Hawkman is rescued by an old hawk named One Eye. The hawk takes Hawkman to the "secret nesting place of the hawks", and while recuperating, he learns the language of the birds. During the final battle, One Eye sacrifices himself to save Hawkman. At the end of the story, the hawks elect Hawkman as their new "chieftain". 
It amazes me how much story Gardner Fox could tell in just nine pages!
