Hawkman #2

In "Origin," Hawkman #2 (2020) delivers a powerful reimagining of its title character’s roots, tracing the tragic arc of Ktar Deathbringer, a once-zealous warrior whose path shifts from conquest to redemption. Written by Robert Venditti and illustrated with bold precision by Bryan Hitch, this pivotal issue reveals the mythic origins of the hero through a sweeping tale of betrayal, sacrifice, and divine second chances. The cover by Bryan Hitch captures the weight of that transformation, setting the tone for a story that redefines what it means to be a protector across eons.
