I bet they could do it, low-tech with just a couple references to birds. And then Laurel could be like, "Hm, birds ..." and we're off to the races.collectededitionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14698269790653953645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-35373643710551679672012-12-17T20:19:27.239-06:002012-12-17T20:19:27.239-06:00Hawkman will get a big bump thanks in part to his ...Hawkman will get a big bump thanks in part to his inclusion in the Justice League of America next year, so continuing his solo series will happen.<br /><br />Unlike Green Arrow getting redemption for having Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino coming up(which we all can guess is going to be huge), as well as the ARROW television show giving the character even more credit...but Hawkman doesn't have the same saving grace about it for the future. It doesn't have a set writer either, which doesn't sound too good.<br /><br />Again, Carter will get some media attention thanks to Geoff Johns JLA run next year, but as his solo series looks...it doesn't look too bright.AngryLionheart1https://www.blogger.com/profile/08551845755863689101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10945794.post-84657131422148429052012-12-17T18:40:28.842-06:002012-12-17T18:40:28.842-06:00I've heard Hawkman described as "Conan wi...I've heard Hawkman described as "Conan with wings" if done properly, so here's my pitch.<br /><br />Combine Hawkman with Warlord.

Even after his exit, this series has yet to get a new regular writer, which leads me to believe its days are numbered. It's a shame they couldn't get Hawkman right, even after finally giving him a chance to shed all of that continuity baggage.shagamuhttp://mbbforum.com/mbbnoreply@blogger.com
