Description
Showcase #101-#103 which was the real return of Hawkman after his Silver Age series ended a full 10 years earlier (1968). Murphy Anderson, the original penciller on Hawkman Volume 1 returns as inker for his protege, Al Milgrom.

The pairing of MIlgrom and Anderson created a new but familiar look for the Hawks (I find their helmets a dramatic improvement from the original Hawkman series and closer to a merging of Anderson and Kuber’s versions).

Strikes me now, though it didn’t at the time, that the pairing and Adam Strange and Hawkman was a bit like Flash Gordon and Prince Vultan (I’m sure not at all intentional…).

Thanks, that panel was a big selling point - and love the way Adam is breaking the panel in the 3rd one.

Thanks! Always thrilled to pick up another page from those issues and any that have all 3 of the main characters is extra special.

The Murphy Anderson inks are a delight and gives the revival more gravitas.  Milgrom is making this a great sci-fi fantasy title after Star Wars made the genre hot again.

Striking page.  This 3 issue run is a treat. Anderson did such a great job finishing over Milgrom's layouts. Panels 2 & 3 are amazing! Congrats!
