Hawkgirl: The Maw

In this 2007 DC one-shot, legendary talents Walter Simonson and Howard Chaykin unite for a standalone Hawkgirl adventure that pits the winged warrior against a monstrous threat from the depths of the ocean. The story leans into Chaykin's gritty, detailed style and Simonson's knack for mythic-scale conflict, offering a dense, atmospheric tale that showcases Hawkgirl's ferocity and resilience. While brief, the issue stands as a distinctive, creator-driven take on the character during a period when DC often spotlighted her in solo stories.
