The Daily Rios Digest's Review of Wednesday Comics' 2009 Hawkman Feature

   Back in 2009, DC Comics put out a weekly anthology book called Wednesday Comics. It featured 15 stories, one page a week for 12 weeks, and each story was done by a different writer. Kyle Baker put out a pretty good Hawkman story. To be honest, the first page was the best of the story, but it's worth a read if you can ever get your hands on a copy. 

   A comics podcast called The Daily Rios reviewed the story in an episode last month. It's a good review that had me remembering my own similar reactions when I read it for the first time. Go check out the podcast! LINK 

Hawk Cosplay Alert: Grace McClung

 Cosplayers are the best fans in the world. Their creativity comes from the heart. It may not be the best, but you can tell that they love what they are doing. But I have to say that Grace McClung is one of the best, if not the best I have ever seen. You can find her other cosplays on her Twitter and Instagram accounts. Definitely worth checking out! You can also find more amazing Hawkgirl cosplays here. Respect!

Thought for the Day: A Knowledgeable Editor Base is Vital

Been seeing a lot of comic book review sites and articles lately that talk about how bad the editing system is in DC Comics. It's almost like they have no editors, editors who know nothing about the characters, or editors who really don't care. A central editor for everyone to stay in touch with is vital for a system like DC Comics.

And DC Comics seems like they are ignoring one of their most vital, knowledgeable, and passionate resources; the fans.

Thought for the day.

Give JSA Another Shot! (Article by We Got This Covered)

Charlotte Simmons of the We Got This Covered site put out a word for the JSA, particularly Hawkman and Doctor Fate, asking James Gunn and the new DCU to give the characters another shot in another movie. Simmons was a bit hard on Black Adam IMHO, but it's nice to see the article and all the positive comments that Hawkman received. Check out the article! I hope it becomes a reality someday. 

DC defenders urge James Gunn to give the one bright spot of a major misfire another shot 

Then there's a sightly more depressing take on Aldis Hodges' chances of putting on the wings again...
