No Caption Provided

Straight from the pages of Squadron Supreme comes the most brutal super hero in the Marvel Universe in a hard-hitting new ongoing series! Marvel is pleased to present your first look inside NIGHTHAWK #1 – the new ongoing series from fan-favorite creators David Walker (Power Man And Iron Fist) and Ramon Villalobos (E is for Extinction). He is Chicago’s lethal vigilante – dispensing swift and vicious justice to those who truly deserve it. But when the city’s shadiest power brokers begin turning up dead – each murdered more gruesomely than the last – Nighthawk must ask himself the hard questions. Does this killer deserve to be caught? What does he want? More importantly, what does the killer have to do with Nighthawk? To answer those questions – Nighthawk might have to look in the mirror first. The mystery begins here! Don’t miss one minute of the bone-crunching action when NIGHTHAWK #1 comes to comic shops and digital devices this May!

Not a good cover in the bunch. Nice to see that he wears sneakers, for all that sneaking he does.

The art just doesn't seem right for this particular series. Needs something more like a Lark or Maleev.

I will give it a try. The underdog-charakter-comics of ANAD.Marvel are way better, then ANAD - "Hulk", "Thor" and that thing in Wolverine´s costume.

@tensor: His look predated the Talons.

This looks good. I like that he's got tech and stuff now, but his name is Nighthawk, shouldn't his drones and such be Hawk themed not Owls? That being said I like that both Hyperion and Nighthawk are getting series.

Will check it out. I wish the art was grittier, looks kinda cartoonish imo. If he's a badass why is wearing douchebag Kanye's?

I bought the Hyperion comic last week and the narrative was not very good. I have dropped that tittle. I would pick this up but got to watch the comic budget so that it don't get to far gone.

Ramon Villalobos pretty much only tweets about two things, sneakers and Kanye.

The fact they are finally making a Nighthawk book, yet it doesn't star Kyle Richmond actually makes me wanna read anything from Marvel a lot less.

Do not understand why Marvel is pushing Squadron Supreme so much. I did like them as villains in the season 2 of Avengers.

I might give it a try but the art should have been more darker and better that fits the tone of the book.

Nighthawk could be a good dark series

Same, especially seeing as how obvious JL rip-offs they are. Without being as established or fleshed out as the JL members.

I don't really know anything about this new Nighthawk, but from first appearances, I think it would be cool to see a Nighthawk vs Moon Knight comic.

@tparks: Well, he seems to have mellowed but originally he really didn't like white people. I mean, he REALLY didn't like white people.

I Guess, now he's just decided to limit that hatred to actual racist.

Looks cool and I really dig David Walker's humor and Villalobos' art.

The drone is neat... but it really looks more of an owl than a hawk.

Really? Rip off? Not parody or deconstruction or inspired by? You know a rip off is something that was created to claim that it was the first version.

i really thought i didnt care for his racist anti-white stuff, but i think that was actually a big reason why i liked the character. made him a lot more interesting to me because there was something for me to dislike about him as i rooted for him.

i understand why they did it, but its a little sad to see him get toned down. aside from racists, who doesnt dislike racists? kind of a generic thing, all super heroes fight against that.

anyway, i hope they can pull this and the other Squadron Supreme books off. they are far more than JLA parodies anymore

Either way, the Squadron Supreme works better when their not the stars of a book. It's not like their The Authority.

@jonny_anonymous: They're not really parodies like Deadpool is of Deathstroke, they are waaay too similar to just be inspirations, and I don't really see them doing anything that could be called a deconstruction of the characters.

Really? How much have you read of these characters? Because deconstruction is exactly what they are.

Isn't it the guy from secret wars and not the guy from civil war?

One of the covers is even the REAL Nighthawk vs this fake one.
