Hawkgirl in Superman Legacy News and Updates
"I was a DC kid growing up. We had the action figures, and most of them were so old and used that the paint had come off... But I really adored Hawkgirl," she said to Collider.
"I had Hawkgirl and Hawkman as part of my collection. Well, technically it wasn’t mine. It was my siblings and I’s collection. We had Hot Wheels too. We just had a really fun, enjoyable childhood with those. So, this is a full circle moment."

Hawkman's Powers in The Batman (2004)
Hawkman made a few appearances in DC cartoons back in the 2000s. Some were pretty bad (Justice League Unlimited), but his appearances in The Batman series were fun to watch. Hard to understand why an awesome looking character with so many cool powers continues to be used so sparingly. Enjoy the highlight video by Rafael Ridolph!
Hawkwoman in Game Rant Rankings: Best of All-Time and Most Powerful

Game Rant put out a couple of DC heroine rankings this past week and Hawkwoman/Hawkgirl is on both so I thought I'd share! Nothing much is said in the articles, but it's nice to know she is still recognized. I guess that comes with her appearance in the upcoming Superman movie. I'm sure there will be more spotlights coming her way this year. Click the links for the article!

CBR: This Controversial Green Lantern Corps Romance Needs to Be Avoided at All Costs
The fan backlash against Hawkwoman (Shayera Hol II) apparently being paired up with John Stewart continues in another great article by Timothy Blake Donohoo. Shayera recently has appeared in the Green Lantern Corps series by Jeremy Adams and Morgan Hampton. When Shayera went to the Green Lanterns for help after Thanagar was destroyed, it was apparent that she has some sort of history with John Stewart. No details have been given, but John Stewart appeared to dread seeing her again. Shayera seemed a bit flirty with him in a couple of scenes. Donohoo focuses on John Stewart's position in the DC universe, or lack of one, but also reminds readers how great the Hawkman series by Robert Venditti was for the Hawks and how it brought them back together.

DC Has Their Own Wolverine (And It’s Not Who You Think) - ComicBook.com
 |
| Art by Bryan Hitch |
Since he hit the mainstream 25 years ago, Wolverine has often been compared to Hawkman. There are similarities and this article by David Harth does a pretty good job of describing the two heroes and how they match up. Personally, I think Hawkman could be a combination of several Marvel characters, Wolverine (healing, fighting), Thor (hammer- mace), Archangel (wings), and maybe even Moira MacTaggert (reincarnation). Take a look at the article and see what you think of the comparisons! LINK
There really doesn’t seem to be any character who fits the Wolverine mold, but actually DC has had their own Wolverine for much longer than Wolverine has existed — the leader of the Golden Age Justice Society of America known as Hawkman.Hawkman first appeared in Flash Comics #1 from 1940, his hawk mask, giant wings, and morningstar mace setting him apart from the other early heroes of DC. Looking at Hawkman’s history, there are many, many parallels between him and Wolverine. Hawkman is one of the most complex characters in comics, much like Wolverine, and just needs to find the right portrayal to reach the heights of Marvel’s ol’Canucklehead.

Why Hawkman and Hawkwoman Matter: A DC Comics News Article by Matthew Lloyd
Ok. I’m going to TRY to make this POSITIVE. Unfortunately, it’s inspired by the recent appearances of Hawkwoman in Green Lantern Corps. The first two issues have teased something…terrible for fans of the Hawks. It’s easy to get upset and come out swinging with criticism…don’t worry, it’ll come. Eventually. I’m trying to start with lauding the most significant aspect of Hawkman and Hawkwoman/ girl (she shall be Hawkwoman for the remainder of the article as it’s a name change and not necessarily a different character being referenced- unless it is!). So, what’s unique and special about the Hawks? What’s the one thing about them that is significantly different from other characters and why does it set them apart and why does it matter?
He also graciously included some of my article on the history of the Hawks. Check out the full article here and leave a comment for if you can!

Review of Green Lantern Corps No. 2 (Hawkwoman!)
|
 |
|
Hawkwoman has finally made her return to the DC Universe in the Green Lantern Corps series. As far as we know, this is still the version we saw in the Hawkman series by Robert Venditti (2019-2021, issues No. 18-29). She is Shayera Hol, the Empress of Thanagar and the eternal love of Hawkman (Carter Hall III). They were finally freed from their reincarnation curse and chose to live their last life together. We've seen them in short stories during the past few years, traveling the universe together.
