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.

April 25th is the 77th anniversary of Shiera Sanders' first appearance as Hawkgirl. She first strapped on the Hawk wings in All-Star Comics No. 5, which was released on April 25, 1941.

Support the New Hawkman Series!

Request to all the Hawkman fans!
It's been five years since Hawkman last had a regular series. We finally got our wish this year and the new series is coming out in June. And we have a top team in Robert Venditti and Bryan Hitch. No matter how good they are, if the fans don't support it, it will be canceled. Hold off on that Starbucks Caffe Latte Tall for one day a month and put the book on your pull list! Let's get behind this book and make Hawkman #100 a reality! 
Here are the Diamond order codes:
APR180138 (main cover) / APR180139 (variant cover)
They have released the cover to Hawkman No. 1 (released date June 13th) and Hawkman No. 2 (release date July 11th). If this is any indication, the series is off to a great start! 

Hawkman No. 2 Cover Released!

The cover to Hawkman No. 2 was released last week! The art by Bryan Hitch reveals Hawkman in a Egyptian setting, giving us another clue to the direction Robert Venditti will be taking Hawkman in the new series. The new series begins June 13th, and No. 2 is scheduled to be released on July 11th!
