The Savage Hawkman #1 W: Tony S Daniel A: Philip Tan
New Universe, New
Old Hawkman. Carter Hall dons the wings of Nth Metal once more,
although for the vast majority of this book he seems to be desperate to
forget it all and just get on with his regular job.
I
was prepared to give Tony Daniel some latitude, because I enjoyed the
writing on Detective, but this is pretty much a mess. Firstly, it
features an 'enemy from the dawn of time' (which, as people might have
read on other threads, is exactly what I hated the most
one of the things I found particularly objectionable about Russell T
Davies' Award Winning Doctor Who tm) and secondly because the dialogue
is this bad:
Even
Philip Tan's artwork, which I've liked in the past, is reduced to a
smear on these pages with little more than expressions of colour and
motion which although it could conceivably be A THING is not his
intention I'm sure.
I'd rather be reading this Hawkman:
I'll see it to #3, but it's not much better than either of the JT Krul books.
