I always liked that jacked up Hawkman from those Legends of the Superheroes tv specials from the 70s lol.

Joke of an actor? That's Michael Shanks. He's pretty cool. He's most famous for being a lead on Stargate SG-1. He's also married to Lexa Doig so I envy the guy a bit lol

I'm a comic canon fan, but given Carter Hall's relationship to ancient Egypt, this swap works for me.



Not to be persnickety, but, as a Hawkman fan, I feel compelled to point out that some of your characterization is a bit askew of the mark. Hawkman does, in fact, have a measure of enhanced strength and durability. These powers are the result of the use of Nth metal and even include regenerative abilities. Hawkman is not 'normal'.

Strength/Durability depends on which Hawkman we are talking about though. Some are alien. Some got that nth Metal running through their veins. Some are just human with no physical advancements.

Are we talkin MCU Captain America, Comic Captain America, Spider-man, or Aquaman durability?

Black Adam with Throne. I don't understand why Mcfarlane wont make at least a budget friendly version and a version with all the accessories with a higher price tag.

I used to consider them somewhat trite, but 'Respect' threads on Reddit are actually pretty useful for this sort of dialogue:

20$ is good deal for this figure with that well sculpted throne. May get an extra for my Conan or mythic legions figures.

The math is simple. Selling 2 $20 figures ($40) with 2 different heads on same body gets him more $ than selling 1 $25 figure with 1 body with 2 different heads. PLUS it gets him "Top-Selling Action Figures and Accessories" of the year award because it forces everyone to buy multiple of the same character. All of you who are "buying it just for the throne" even though you already have Black Adam are contributors to his success. Nothing wrong with that though.
