This was brought up on the John Stewart Appreciation thread, but I'd like to hear from Hawkman/Hawkgirl fans about this.
In the Justice League cartoon, Geoff Johns introduced the wrinkle that John Stewart had also been in ancient Egypt with Khufu and Chay-Ara in his past life and a quasi-Lancelot/Guinevere affair between John & Hawkgirl ensued.
At the time, Hawkman fans were rightfully pissed at this notion because it undercut the very foundation upon which the whole modern Hawkman/Hawkgirl reincarnated romance idea was built upon by making Hawkman a cuckold.
However, now that Snyder has introduced the idea that Hawkman & Hawkgirl have been reincarnating for far longer that previously established, that their original incarnations were not, in fact, Khufu & Chay-Ara, could Johns idea be introduced into the DCU proper now?
What do you think?
