A roaring penultimate chapter to the Deathbringer saga, which leaves the reader in awe with its cliffhanger. Hitch and Venditti showcase the potential of The Winged Wonder once more Read Full Review

There's not a ton to break down with this one. Month after month, Hawkman has proven to be one of DC's most consistently enjoyable titles. It's not a fluke any more and is the kind of experience fitting one of DC's top tier characters. Read Full Review

I urge everyone to go check out the comic for themselves. Better yet, find a way to start reading from issue No. 1 and treat yourself to an amazing adventure. Cast aside preconceived ideas about Hawkman being confusing. Discover a familiar character for the first time and enjoy the flight. Read Full Review

This one is a Hawkman fan's dream! Delivering on all fronts and kicking an already epic book into overdrive! Read Full Review

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how this all wraps up the storyline in the next issue. This has, by far, been my favorite Hawkman story that I've seen in a long, long, time, going back to the 90s when Tim Truman worked on the characters. Robert Venditti has worked some good stuff here to build this across the twelve issues in a way that made sense and avoided bringing in most of the usual guest stars that we often see. It's very self-contained overall but deals with an expansive history. With Hitch and Currie on the art duties, it's looked fantastic every step of the way and the big payoff moments are definitely here and playing out beautifully. Definitely worth the time and money to check out. Read Full Review

"Hawkman" #11's strong writing and art allows for potent emotional beats gearing up for the end of a long-running storyline. Read Full Review

Visually, this is one of the best books you'll have read this week. Hitch, Currie, and Skipper are getting better and better each month and the result is plain to see. Venditti's story is great and I'm personally excited to see how this story concludes. Read Full Review

From the start the story has ridden high on one factor " just how good Venditti is at differentiating the countless Hawkmen, giving each of them their own personality. As it reaches its grand finale, it seems like that's going to continue even while the main threat remains vague. Still the most compelling Hawkman has been in well over a decade. Read Full Review

Im looking forward to seeing how Venditti and Hitch wrap up this arc, but at the same time I know that means Hitch will be moving onto another book. It will be sad to see him go, I just hope the next artist compliments Vendittis writing as well as he did. Read Full Review

Hawkman #11suffers the same fate as so many issues in the latter half of a trade paperback-sized arc, as the narrative stalls a bit with this one. Old Hawkfans will still have fun revisiting a number of new and old incarnations of Hawkman but the story does not move forward in this issue. Read Full Review

You'll get some pretty fun Hawkman and Hawkmen action this issue with beautiful art all throughout, but what you won't get is much progression to the story beyond a reveal that came out of nowhere and doesn't really mean much for what we know of the character.  It's pretty standard stuff for this series though so if you've been enjoying this far, there's no reason you won't enjoy this.

THE GOOD:

-This issue was a great final battle. Cinematic, epic. Well done.

-Bryan Hitch is really leaving this series with a bang. He's giving us some of his best work in years.

-Seeing all those different Hawkmen was great.

-Idamm is a great villain. Venditti succeeds in making him more than just an obstacle for Carter.

-The "I am Hawkman" scene was good, if a little cheesy. I don't mind cheese though.

THE BAD:

-My only complaint is the final scene was just really corny.

Great issue! Great dialogue and artwork. Though hope this story arc ends soon because this Deathbringer has been going on for so long!

Till now, this series, by having one and two part stories, avoided Vendetti's tendency to pad things out the way he did in Hal and the GLC. That tendency rears its head this month, not ruining the story but making me wish it could be an issue shorter.

Bleh. This series is soooo poorly paced.

It can’t keep up with the one from the 90ies ( which was funny), but it’s ok I think.

When the pacing is better, this series is good. But the pacing is not good at all.

The pacing of this comic is murder. Having totally immortal and unkillable ultravillains is such a cop out, I refuse to deal with it.
