Summary

This volume corresponds to issue #12 of DC Comics' Hawkman Vol. 4 (serialized 2002–2006), released as the twelfth Chinese standalone book in a 15-book collection. The series was scripted by Geoff Johns, with interior art by Rags Morales and Michael Bair and covers by artists including Andrew Robinson, continuing DC's early-2000s reimagining of Hawkman and Hawkgirl as reincarnated lovers. The story centers on Carter Hall and Kendra Saunders: the two juggle their superhero duties against relentless threats while balancing the memories and emotions of their long cycle of rebirths, all the while contending with an ancient nemesis. In the original issue #12, Hawkman and Hawkgirl face an enemy called the Dark Raven; Kendra is certain the two can survive this trial, even as her past catches up with her in a most unfriendly way. The Chinese edition is arranged as a multi-volume collection; this book picks up the threads of the previous volume and advances the character relationships and subplot seeds, best read in order.

Editor's review

《鹰侠》第四卷是DC在2000年代初最受好评的角色重塑之一:乔夫·琼斯把「转世」这一设定从奇观变成了情感核心,让卡特与肯德拉的每一次并肩作战都带着前世的重量。本册延续这一基调,动作戏紧凑,人物对话里藏着不少情感层次,画面上拉格斯·莫拉莱斯的构图与分镜也相当扎实,翅膀、飞行的动势是这一系列最有辨识度的视觉标签。对于已追到第12册的读者,这一册更像是中段推进的关节:敌人的压迫感与肯德拉个人线的呼应同时展开,为后续的冲突蓄力。如果你在补完DC千禧年代的一批角色刊,这一卷不可跳过。需要提醒的是,本册为系列第12册单册,并非合集全套,请确认册号后再入手。

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • 正在系统补完DC千禧年代超级英雄刊物的漫画读者
  • 喜欢鹰侠、鹰女「转世恋人」设定的老粉丝
  • 偏爱乔夫·琼斯编剧风格、重视人物情感线的读者
  • 已收集本系列前11册、希望按册号继续的收藏者

Not a good fit for

  • 希望一册读完完整故事线的轻度读者
  • 完全没接触过鹰侠、对DC宇宙设定陌生的新手

Reading tips

  1. 建议先读本系列第1至11册,本册承接多条人物与支线伏笔。
  2. 阅读时可留意卡特与肯德拉对「前世记忆」的不同态度,这是全卷的情感主线。
  3. 如遇DC同期大事件交叉内容,可按出版月份顺序对照原版期刊补读。

不是。这是《鹰侠V4》系列合集15册中的第12册单册,仅收录该册对应的内容,其余册需另行收集。
没读过前面的册数能直接看第12册吗?
可以读,但会缺失前册累积的人物关系与支线伏笔。若想获得完整体验,建议从本系列第1册按顺序读起。

通常指DC于2002年至2006年连载的Hawkman第四卷,共49期,由乔夫·琼斯等人主创,以卡特·霍尔为主角,后更名为《鹰女》。
