Tier List Ranking System for Hawkman/Hawkgirl Comics Reviews

 Hawkworld will be starting a new comic review for Hawkman and Hawkgirl comics! And what's a review without a good tier system to rate the comics? I made a new tier-list ranking system worthy of Hawkworld comics to add at the end of every review, so look for the reviews and the rating I give each comic going forward! There's no better place to begin than at the start, so I'll be posting a review of Hawkman's debut story in Flash Comics No. 1 (January 1940). Feel free to post your agreements, disagreements, and opinions in the comments! 

Hawkman/Hawkgirl Comic Tier List 2026

 

Here's my updated Tier List for Hawkman/Hawkgirl comics. The top five series are absolutely essential for comics fans. The stories and the art are top-notch. The best of the best. The A-ranked series are also very good, and I definitely recommend them. The art in every series is the best out there, but the writing suffers a bit for various reasons. I may have had Vol. 4 up in the S-rank back in the day, but it hasn't aged well. The art remains the best, though. 

DC's Hawk-Girl Summer Review

DC's Hawkgirl Summer 
Cover Date:  September 2026 / Release Date: July 26, 2026

Script Meghan Fitzmartin

Art: Meghan Hetrick
Colorist: Nick Filardi 
Letterer: Travis Lanham
Editing: Andrew Marino
Cover: Guillem March

Hawkgirl (Kendra Saunders) scores the cover and leading story in DC's latest anthology, a pretty rare feat for a Hawk character. Anthology stories are usually just extremely light reading, but if the writer is good enough, they can add to a character's story and history within the 12 pages they have. Did DC accomplish that here? Let's take a look. Spoilers ahead, so come back after you've read the comic!

Absolute Superman No. 21 (Absolute Hawkman) Review

 The King Shazam story, which includes the Absolute Hawkman, finally comes to a close in Absolute Superman No. 21. The action in this story was pretty insane, and Hawkman had a pretty big part of it, so here's a spoiler-rich review of the issue. If you haven't read it yet, come back later!
