I was pretty late into reading Adam Strange, just read an older miniseries about him not too long ago. I like the look, and the retro vibe of the character, so I'll probably check it out.

I'm just going to take a wild stab here and say Despero is behind the whole thing...

Glad especially for the inclusion of the Stranges.
Though I must admit I was quite underwhelmed by Andreyko's recent works.
Alanna is a human/Rannian hybrid, since Sardath was revealed to be her father in Justice League United #16.

It might be good, I wish the Hawkworld costume was being used. Hawkman is one of those heroes for me that never works as well as his golden age version. Tim Truman's version being my one exception. The Adam Strange part sounds drama. I'll probably check it out eventually.

Wow, (Silver Age and Hawkworld) Hawkman is my second favorite hero and Despero is in my top five for villains. And the creative team is great.

Sounds like a fun read. Always nice to get more Hawkman.

Huh. I haven't read the Parker run yet. I'd still prefer her to be a regular Rannian. Originally Posted by Powertool

Not digging either of those costume designs. They should have just stuck with the pre-52 version of Strange's outfit, from the Planet Heist mini. And what's with all the armor plating on Hawkman's legs? Seems like it would cause a lot of unnecessary drag in flight. Plus, it doesn't make any sense for him to be wearing leg armor while flying around with a bare chest and arms.
Ha! You fell for their fiendishly clever red herring! Originally Posted by johnnyrocket

"Thanagarian policeman Katar Hol" suggests that they are dropping his entire New 52 backstory. It's rare that I say this, being a continuity fan and all, but it is the best thing that could happen to him.

Same here, making her human or even half loses the point of her relationship with Strange. Originally Posted by FlashingSabre

I'm not up on the continuity of New 52 Hawkman, but in the few issues I've read with him he seemed to act like he was a Thanagarian police officer stuck on Earth. Originally Posted by Doctor Bifrost
