“Darkness Within: Shades of Former Selves”

Part of DC's 2019 "Year of the Villain: Dark Gifts" event, this issue finds Hawkman in a genuinely dire spot — the cover by Pat Olliffe and Tom Palmer shows the winged warrior seized from above by writhing tendrils of living shadow, his golden helmet just visible as a grinning, dark-haired figure looms overhead. The tagline "Smothered… by a Living Shadow!" captures the suffocating dread perfectly, while three ominous villain faces watch from the top of the cover, hinting at the broader threat lurking behind the scene. Robert Venditti's story, brought to life by Olliffe, Palmer, and colorist Jeremiah Skipper, promises a chapter where Hawkman's legendary resilience is tested in the most unsettling way.
