Hawkman Brave and Bold ad

Another appearance by Carter at the T3. He's found a home, just where he should be, with his best bud.

This ad, courtesy of Rob Kelly over at the aquaman shrine and other rear kicking bloggage, is gorgeous.
It should just sell itself, and it works for me! I want to know who this Hawkman is, how he comes to fight all of these menaces, and why he "wheets."

If that's not enough or just doesn't do it for you, he's obviously putting his fist through someone or something on the cover of that comic.

That does it.

Although if I didn't know any better, I'd think with all the "who's" on there, maybe it's an ad better suited for Owlman.

Ba-dum-dum

they repeated the kick-ass design of this ad in the late 70s, when Hawkman had a run in Showcase near the end of its run. they knew had a winner, so why change it?
