   Since he hit the mainstream 25 years ago, Wolverine has often been compared to Hawkman. There are similarities and this article by David Harth does a pretty good job of describing the two heroes and how they match up. Personally, I think Hawkman could be a combination of several Marvel characters, Wolverine (healing, fighting), Thor (hammer- mace), Archangel (wings), and maybe even Moira MacTaggert (reincarnation). Take a look at the article and see what you think of the comparisons! LINK

There really doesn’t seem to be any character who fits the Wolverine mold, but actually DC has had their own Wolverine for much longer than Wolverine has existed — the leader of the Golden Age Justice Society of America known as Hawkman.

Hawkman first appeared in Flash Comics #1 from 1940, his hawk mask, giant wings, and morningstar mace setting him apart from the other early heroes of DC. Looking at Hawkman’s history, there are many, many parallels between him and Wolverine. Hawkman is one of the most complex characters in comics, much like Wolverine, and just needs to find the right portrayal to reach the heights of Marvel’s ol’Canucklehead.
