Thal Porvis

Thal Porvis is a supporting character inhabiting Thanagar, the hawk-winged world of DC's Hawkworld setting, appearing alongside key figures such as Katar Hol and Byth in Timothy Truman's gritty science-fantasy reimagining of Hawkman mythology.

A denizen of the vivid, morally complex world Timothy Truman built in Hawkworld #1 (1989), Thal Porvis is one of those Copper Age supporting players who helps give a landmark DC reimagining its texture and depth. With just six catalogued appearances spread across Hawkworld and Hawkman, this is a figure who shares the page with the likes of Katar Hol, Shayera Thal, and the sinister Byth — serious company in one of the era's most acclaimed science-fantasy settings. Collectors who prize the gritty, socially charged corner of the DC universe that Truman carved out in the early '90s will recognize Thal Porvis as one of the background threads woven into that richly imagined tapestry.
