Till ungefär 30 sekunder sedan när jag fick den nya 52 Hawkman trodde jag att det bara var Hawkgirl.
Varför fanns inte Hawkman i tecknet? Vad gjorde DC använda Hawkgirl istället för de andra Hawk-karaktärerna?
De ville komma ifrån Aquaman och använda Hawkman, men var inte satified med en lineup som bara inkluderade en kvinna (Wonder Woman), så bestämde sig för att använda Hawkgirl baserat på Silver Age-versionen som kallas Shayera Hol.
Från Wikipedia artikeln:
This new animated TV series brought all sorts of new characters. Ignoring the sidekicks, pets, and other elements of the earlier Super Friends show, the line-up of this new JLA adaptation was created with two things in mind: to pay tribute to the original line-up of the Justice League of America while also reflecting racial and cultural diversity. Significantly, the well-known superhero Aquaman was left out of the lineup (although he would become a member of the team on Justice League Unlimited), and was replaced by Hawkgirl, the team's second female (along with Wonder Woman).
Och från Hawkgirl artikeln:
Her personality was completely redesigned for the series by the producers, who wanted a second woman for the team (taking Aquaman's place) to contrast with Wonder Woman. While Black Canary is traditionally more associated with the Justice League, the producers preferred to have the Hawk family represented.
