Reincarnated Egyptian or Thanagarian? Which do you prefer?
>>
Thanagarian. Definitely Thanagarian.

Not them.

Both.

>>83828003

Both of them are good.

Not combined together though. Pick one and stick with it.

They should separate Hawkman into two distinct characters. One of them can be an Egyptian, the other a Thanagarian strictly focusing on sci-fi stories.
>>
>>83829466
Do you know that they are originally two different characters, right?

Original Thanagarians who came to earth in ancient Egypt; Thanagarian culture similar to Egyptian culture, art, etc; died on earth; Thanagarian computer does reincarnation effect to compatible humans (regardless of race, sex, etc) , complete with memories and maybe some genetic changes; Their original gear, weapons, etc is waiting for each reincarnation

(anyone know if such stories exist for the Hawks? I barely know anything about Hawkman/woman but love ancient Egyptian mythology and want more in comics, like Moon Knight)

>>83829827
You could have them mix magic and tecnology and just replace reincarnation computer by thanagarian magic. Its more simple and add a little to the mythos.

This done, it's a simple origin, no more confusion.

They can stay on Earth or have space scifi magic adventures.
>>
I thought it was the anti-magic metal that forced their souls to reincarnate constantly.

Does that mean all Thanagarians all reincarnate because of that?
>>
>>83828003
Egyptian, but using technology recovered from ancient aliens.
Seeing as racebending is all the rage nowadays, I'm surprised DC hasn't done it to the Hawks...it would actually make sense for them.
>>
>>83829921
Anti-magic metal plus an Egyptian curse.
>wait...
>>
>>83829827
>(anyone know if such stories exist for the Hawks? I barely know anything about Hawkman/woman but love ancient Egyptian mythology and want more in comics, like Moon Knight)

I would suggest checking up on Johns' Hawkman run, which is where he undid the Hawksnarl in a way that allowed for both sides of the character to work.

Other than that, the Hawkworld miniseries and following Ostrander series is pretty damn good, but it features the Hawks as Thanagarian space cops and doesn't get into Egyptian stuff.

You're pretty much describing John's continuity compromise in JSA, except the Thanagarian computer is just nth metal.

That's making it way more complicated than it has to be:

>Thanagarians crash on earth, and become rulers of Egypt with Dr. Fate & Black Adam
>Murdred by a bad guy and destined to be reincarnated & killed by him forever
>Fought crime throughout time, constantly re-incarnating, reuniting, and dying again
>Were part in the JSA in WW2, but both died again
>Came back in the modern day to join the JLA/JSA

Boom. Just sweep away all the dumb bullshit about Thanagar
>>
>>83836887

OR if you want to mix Thanagar in:

>After dying in WW2 era JSA, they are re-incarnated on Thanagar as Thanagarians....came back to earth and then joined the JLA/JSA
>>
>>83836357
I hate when this thing gets referred to as the origin. It's the summary of about 60 years worth of stories, retcons and like 12 different characters.

Why did Hawkman return but not Hawkgirl? Was Brightest Day really that shitty?

Hawkgirl did return.

At the time Hawkgirl was Kendra Saunders and Hawkman lifts her mask to reveal she was no reborn as Shayera and Kendra is gone. Or something like that.

That bullshit still lingers today in comics so the Earth-0 Hawks are in comic book limbo for now in Rebirth.

I hope that Johns' fix to the Hawksnarl as described in >>83830008 will be part of the stolen decade.

I prefer alien bird people that conquer things.

Too many DC heroes are Egyptian in some way, and too many aliens are too nice.

Thanagarian assholes with a bird theme are something a little different.

As much as I like Katar and Shayera as characters, I like Carter and Shiera better. Carter gets to be The Hawkman. Katar is just a hawkman from Thanagar.

I think the real question is... who's the better nemesis for Hawkman?

Shadow Thief... or Gentleman Ghost?
>>
>>83839110
Character wise I'd say Ghost, but I slightly prefer Thief solely for the potential for freaky art shenanigans that he allows for.

Hawkworld Thanagarian space cop. Never was a fan of the reincarnation stuff.
>>
>>83839110

Gentleman Ghost is way cooler, but Shadow Thief kinda works better due to the suit's closer connection to Thanagar and space.
>>
Why not both? In a universe with many planets, why do you have to reincarnate on the same one you died on?
