Carter Hall

Carter Hall is the alter ego of Hawkman, a DC hero whose soul has been reincarnated across centuries, currently living as a museum curator and archaeologist who wields ancient Nth metal weaponry and harnesses an anti-gravity metal to soar into battle alongside DC's greatest heroes.

Few names carry as much weight in DC's mythology as Carter Hall, who made his catalog debut in Flash #37 in 1978, brought to the page by the Bronze Age talents of Paul Levitz, Paul Kupperberg, and Joe Staton. Published under Semic S.A., this Carter Hall has kept extraordinary company across his appearances — sharing adventures with the likes of Green Lantern, Superman, Flash, and Bruce Wayne — a roster that speaks to the rarefied tier of DC storytelling he inhabits. Spanning an impressive arc from 1978 all the way to 2026 across titles including Spécial DC and Dawn of Justice Society of America, he's a figure whose presence in the catalog rewards the dedicated collector hunting the deeper corners of DC's international publishing history.
