The Hawkman Family (Updated 6-16-2023)

 

Here is a quick introduction to all the members of the Hawkman Family that we have seen over the years. In the Hawks' long history, many characters have been added to their family. 

New Zero Hour Hawkman Figure?

 

Hawkworld Facebook's Mikel Garcia posted a notice from McFarlane today. Apparently, they are coming out with a Zero Hour Hawkman figure in a few months. This is the only news that we have of the figure, so more details might be coming soon. We had one figure of the post Zero Hour Hawkman from Kenner that was released i 1996 (below) but it will be interesting to see what McFarlane comes up with this time. Stay tuned!

   Back in 2006, a new Hawkgirl series picked up where Hawkman Vol. 4 left off, starting at issue No. 50 and continuing for 17 issues. Walter Simonson wrote all 17 issues, and the art was shared by Howard Chaykin (7 issues), Renato Arlem (7 issues), Joe Bennett (2 issues), and Dennis Calero (1 issue). 
   The series picked up after the Infinite Crisis event. Hawkman had decided to stay on Thanagar to help rebuild, so Hawkgirl/Kendra Saunders went back to St. Roch to run the Stonechat Museum until Carter Hall returned. Hawkman eventually returned and the ending seemingly resolved the Shiera/Kendra conundrum, until the Blackest Night event brought it right back.

Fan Art of the Week!

Styvens Jangal

   Over the years, many fans of Hawkman and Hawkgirl have shared their art with me and the Hawkworld social groups. A few days ago, one of Hawkworld's followers on Twitter asked me to feature his art. I thought that would be a cool idea to do once a week. So I'm taking Zachary Hering's suggestion and starting a spotlight on fan art every week on Monday! 
   The art above was post on Hawkworld Facebook back in 2016. I think it's the only piece anyone has ever done of me with Hawkman so the art by Styvens Jangal has always stayed in my memory.

   Hawkman shows up on this list with his "power" of reincarnation. I've never really thought of Hawkman's reincarnation as an actual power. It's more of a curse, but it does give Hawkman the ability to continue through time. Reincarnation has made him practically one of the immortals. He even showed up at a meeting of the Immortals in the Dark Night Metal event back in 2017.
