    As always, Robert Vendittis Hawkman epic continues to be an underrated masterpiece of storytelling and world building. Fernando Pasarin and the rest of the art team make this book look so effortlessly cool and good while milking each panel for drama and intensity. Truly, this whole saga of Hawkman is worth reading because of issues like this one. Read Full Review

    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield Mar 11, 2020

    Equal part spacefaring adventure and complex story about identity, this title has taken the Year of the Villain tie-in and used it to deepen the character's own storyarc.

    Hawkman#22 is clearly working towards something big in the weeks to come. While this issue is relatively simple, it provides a backdrop for the following issues to play against. We seem to be getting one last glimpse of cliche superhero dramas, before stepping into new worlds with Hawkwoman as our guide. Read Full Review
