Gift from Hawkman Artist Philip Tan!

Hawkman by Philip Tan

   I received a very special surprise in the mail today! I have enjoyed getting to know Philip Tan through the Hawkworld group on Facebook over the years. The other day he messaged me to say that he had sent me something. I received it today and it blew me away! 

   Philip Tan was the artist for the Savage Hawkman series in 2011-2012! He drew seven of the first eight issues of the series. He has also done work in many other titles such as Iron Man, Spawn and the Uncanny X-Men! 

   Philip sent me two profile pieces of Hawkman. The red one says 飛べ、TIMさん which means Soar, Tim! He also sent me a signed copy of his book titled Ktar/カタ―！Check out the link to it on Facebook! 

Thank you so much, Philip! Check out Philip's sites for some stunning art!

The Nth Anniversary of Hawkworld!

Hawkworld (Originally called Hawkman Winged Warrior) First Group Banner by Joe Prado

     January 15, 2025 is the Nth anniversary of Hawkworld! I started Hawkworld on Facebook back in 2016 and what a ride it has been. When I was a kid reading comics, I sent out a few letters to the comics, but my letters were never published. I could only dream about interacting with the creators of the characters that I loved reading about. When I began Hawkworld on Facebook, I never expected for that to change. I just wanted to start a place where I could talk about Hawkman and interact with my fellow Hawkfans. What happened is something I never expected, and it still leaves me a bit blown away when I think about all that has happened. Here are some of the highlights during the last nine years with Hawkworld. 

Predictions for Hawkworld 2025

Predictions and Hopes for Hawkworld 2025

   It's been a slow few years for Hawkman and Hawkwoman. Ever since the end of the Hawkman series in 2021 and Justice League in 2022, it's been a long run of cameos, cover art appearances, and a few sudden appearances here and there with a line or two at best. Hawkgirl has had it a bit better, with her continued appearances with the Justice League, and the announcement of her role in the upcoming Superman movie. We'll ignore that disastrous Hawkgirl mini-series and just move on like it never happened. 

   So what will we see for the Hawks in 2025? Here are a few bold predictions for 2025. 

Debunking a Hawkgirl Article

   Screen Rant came out with an article today titled "DC Flips the Script on Hawkman and Hawkgirl's Dynamic." Here is the link to the article. I have some things to say about the article.

   JSA No. 2 ended with Hawkman being apparently killed by a demon. With the reincarnation cycle finally ended (Hawkman Vol. V No. 26), this is truly the end of Hawkman or he finds a way out. There are major spoilers ahead so go read the issue first before you read the rest of my review!
