Hawkman is a character that has two awesome origin stories smashed and jammed into one non coherent origin story. There is no reason that Hawkman the Indiana Jones style archeologist has to be the same character of Hawkman the constantly reincarnated Egyptian prince, who is also Hawkman the police officer from another planet. That should be three separate characters.

I thought the Justice League cartoon resolved it pretty well, though I'm not sure (I tried referencing YouTube clips but they were all AMVs ). Hawkman was just a crazy dude, lol

Skwirl posted:But then there's 3 Hawkmen and that's definitely not a solution. We have 3 Hawkmans. One was an ancient explorer during a time of Thanagarian colonization. He got blown off course and his HyperPod deposited him in the Northern Kingdom of Egypt. Unable to return home, he used his knowledge and advanced technology to improve the life of the people and unify the nation. The Silver Age Hawkmens is a beat cop from Thanagar's third world colony. His nth metal harness allows him to fly, and is adorned with a pair of wings --the symbol of thanagarian rule in the conquered systems. His graviton mace is a multitool that channels nth metal energies, styled on ancient Thanagarian battle weapons. He accidentally comes across a Motherbox that deposits him on Earth in 1912. Forced to live in a land not his own, he uses his otherworldly law enforcement tools to fight for justice. Lets say he dies in the Amazon diffusing Hitler's Doomsday Atomidroid. Modern Day Carter Hall is a thrill-seeking Indiana Jones type from the middle east that finds Silver Age Hawkman's gear. The Mind-Machine interface causes him to have visions of Thanagar, which only subside when exposed to adrenaline. But he is chased by a mysterious and possibly ghostly Hawk-Woman as he scours the globe. There you go. 3 hawkmen, no need for them to significantly overlap or clumsily be The Same Guy Kinda.

FilthyImp posted:There have been 3 Blue Beetles (4 if you count the egyptian period the scarab was active in), but we dont have an obsessive need to make Jaime Reyes a descendant of King Tut's ancient protector, Ankh B'tal the Blue, or make the suit OS a brainchild program holding Ted Kord's disembodied consciousness, or a time-displaced Dan Garrett. I don't want to continue Hawkman Debate since everyone except me hates him, but I think you could merge Ancient Thanagarian Hawkman with Modern Day Carter Hall and keep the reincarnation. Like they did in JLU. He'd have been active as Hawkman during the time of the JSA and is now more focused on archaelogy and discovering his and Shiera's past. Then have Katar Hol from Thanagar as the more active Hawkman, even if he's in space most of the time. It might all be a moot point because I asked Snyder on Twitter about the differences and he said it'll be answered in the one-shot Hawkman Found. Skwirl posted:Who's the third Superman? Oh and I'm assuming we're going Clark, New Super-Man, and Luthor for this one.

Eh, we just have to remember that we all have different tastes in characters. Like me. I'm a huge Silver Age nut. I like my Justice League big with B-List/C-List heroes like Firestorm/Hawkman/Red Tornado alongside Supes & co.

Like they did in JLU. Everyone's got a plan to fix the character, which usually means finding some way to shoehorn in all the versions, compounding the problem. The worst was probably Zero Hour's Hawkgod.
