Hawkworld #1

Timothy Truman's Hawkworld arrives in 1989 as a bold reimagining of the winged warrior, and this first book — "Flashzone" — sets a gritty, atmospheric tone right from the cover. Truman's own pencils and inks present a hawk-masked, dark-winged figure in heavy tactical gear, armed with a firearm and knife, looming against a brooding crimson sky filled with distant birds. It's a striking portrait that signals something rawer and more grounded than the Hawkman of earlier eras, brought to vivid life with inks by Alcatena and colors by Sam Parsons.
