hey, im more than willing to agree they both suck. sure, hawkman's been around for a long-ass time -- but so has plastic man. he and hula hula even had their own cartoon! (where as hawkman could only make special guest appearances on super friends).
like i said before, id definitely be up to giving hawkman a try. ill read the "new" book... but ill drop it asap if it sucks. you gimme an updated character, with an interesting storyline (i.e; green arrow / superman / ultimate spider-man) ill keep on it. you gimme the same crap i feared id read about... its gone.
