Cool Stuff

On this page, there will be stored such things as reviews of comic books and trade paperbacks featuring the Winged Warrior, information about toy lines, the writers and artists, and even some articles I'll write all about the star superhero of the DCU.

Articles/Interviews

Unpublished Interview with Geoff Johns from 2003 This was something I'd once managed to do during mid-2003, but wasn't able to publish for awhile. While not just about Hawkman - it's mostly about the Flash and the JSA as well - it was a wonderful experience to do, and I was proud to take up the challenge of interviewing someone in the world of comics.
Interview with Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray from 2005 An interview I did with the two co-writers who took over the reins on Hawkman's fourth volume in 2004 with issue #28. This too was a great pleasure to conduct.
Why Destroy a Universe? DC's overblown, overhyped “Identity Crisis” wallows in bigotry, insults the intellect, and signals they may be moving in Marvel’s direction from 2003, of trying to make sales through controversy. It also does an incredible disservice to its characters, and sadly, Hawkman too is one of the victims.
Why Destroy a Universe? Part Two More of the holes in the story in Identity Crisis are focused upon in here.
Why Destroy a Universe? Part Three Concluding the focus on the travesty of Identity Crisis.
Letters Column from Hawkworld #15, September 1991 I sometimes find letter columns of yore to be quite facinating to read through, and thought to myself, why not reprint some of them here? So here's a sample of one of the lettercols from one of the older series of the Hawks.
The Partnership that Could've Been Longer An essay on the brief partnership of the Atom and Hawkman during the end of the Silver Age.
Destroying the Atom, Shredding the Elongated Man Are Ray “Atom” Palmer and Ralph “Elongated Man” Dibny, ditto their respective spouses Sue Dibny and Jean Loring, the most shoddily treated members of the DCU? Well, that's exactly what I'm pondering in this essay.
Why the site moved to a new location This is something I wrote in early 2006, when I moved the site to a different location. I used to have it on the main menu, and thought that it could still have some signifigance even here.
