Remembering The Old Hawkman and Hawkgirl

This isn't exactly a traditional sort of thing I do; getting art from other sources and putting them together. But the modern-looking Hawkman and Hawkgirl on the right are my own drawings. So yeah, I can only claim ownership of a small part of this picture.

Here Hawkman and Hawkgirl remember the old Silver Age where Hawkman comics were at the peak of their run. Before CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS. Before HAWKWORLD. Before ZERO HOUR. Before THE NEW 52. Back then Hawkman was a fun series to read. I would know; I have the first volume by Gardner Fox (the original creator) and Joe Kubert (the best Hawkman artist). Actually, I can't really remember the Silver Age because I wasn't born yet lol.

But anyway, I believe the old pictures are all directly lifted from the Silver Age prints, except the middle one where Hawkman says he's sorry. That one was edited on a site but the art looks Silver Age. Whatever the case, I like the one where Hawkman is spraying Hawkgirl with a water hose hahaha. I need to get the other Silver Age volumes. The writing is pretty fun and enjoyable and so NOT SAVAGE like The New 52.

Even though I'm young, I remember when life was simple. Because now I can feel so much tension of the information age. But at least there will always be comics for us to read. Good ones at that.

Enjoy my (partial work) and the lifted prints for laughs. Click to zoom in.
