i just read the original series for the first time, it was definitely a product of its era but i feel like it would be perfect for a tv series or a movie now in 2022
Thanks for another great video only heard about this character in a long time ago but never got chance to read it I'll probably Read it because of you guys thank you very much
Kind of glossed over the Hawk's Shadow confrontation. Hawk's Shadow was the son of a KKK member, and his mission was to kill Black people. It was when Shadowhawk faced Hawk's Shadow that he revealed that he was a Black man, after Hawk's Shadow declared that he was only going after the "N-words". And after that reveal, Shadowhawk beat the living daylights out of Hawk's Shadow.
Considering than most companies are more concerned in filling a diversity check list than telling a good story, I wonder how ShadowHawk wasn't adapted as a Serie or Movie yet?
Well it was back in the past when no one cared about diversity and only worried about what caucasians wanted. Now we're in a better place where everyone gets a little representation.
Dude I know you guys are trying to float on the RUclips algorithm. I don't mind drawing it out but the constant "duh" instead of "the" is stopping it in it's tracks, it throws off the 15-20m script time and the viewer becomes aware of the stretch. This is constructive criticism, I dig what you do
I was too young when issue one came out to know what HIV even was, now I'm like well this fits perfectly with today's views of super heroes needing some gimmick with the they're genitals or where they go lol
the comic was woke for its time tho? image comics was literally progressive as hell when it came to how they let creators keep their work or whatever, unlike the 2 biggest leading comic companies. your shit makes no sense lmao
Hes just a placeholder while we await the first transgender superhero. Soon after that expect Superman to become Superperson and Cyborg to become Bi-borg
tsk tsk tsk. Mediocre storyline for a mediocre superhero. I notice the inspiration custom design was that of wolverine, batman, and spiderman. It moved from a hi-tech armore to a God armored. Most lame and cliche character.
Always hated this character. He's the typical Black male character. Ex-con, from Harlem, morally flawed, strong but physically weak due to HIV. Sorry can't get with this.
I recommend checking out "The Badger" another obscure comic hero who is extremely dysfunctional. (He's a martial artist with Multiple personality disorder.) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badger_(comics)
I remember reading 'The Badger' beginning with issue #1. Cool concept, and dysfunctional is putting it mildly. You have to imagine me being age 15 reading this kind of material. I still have those books in my long boxes to this day.
Image has many awesome titles. They were much darker than "The big 2". Shadow Hawk broke so many backs.
Breaking backs is how he got HIV
You forgot the time that Shadow Hawk met Vampirella and she turned him into a vampire curing him of HIV.
Shadow Hawk was one of my favorite comics in the early 90's
Thanks for another cool video. This is an interesting character with an interesting storyline.
Nice work John. 👍🏽
WE SERIOUSLY NEED MORE SHADOWHAWK!!!
This is my all time favorite 90s comic book!
i just read the original series for the first time, it was definitely a product of its era but i feel like it would be perfect for a tv series or a movie now in 2022
Villain: ha ha i beat you senseless and all you managed was to get a little bit of your blood in my mouth
Shadow Hawk: 😂🤣😂🤣😂
I remember buying this series and Spawn when I was a kid . I should still have the first issue .
Death Battle
Moon Knight vs Shadowhawk vs NightWatch vs Midnighter
Add Darkhawk and Hawkman 😂
@@MarvelousCards i didn't wanna include Hawkman since its his own brand.
Midnight is far stronger than any of them, unless Moon Knight is being boosted by the powers of Khonshu.
@@JoeChillton - so what’s Moon Knight doing in there?
I was gonna say Shadow hawk vs Dark Hawk 😂
And no one thought to make this into a movie
Damn! You left out part where he traveled back in time and met the characters from 1963!
4:45 I had this comic for over 10 years
Totally deserves a movie
You forgot Paul's time as a vampire, thanks to Vamprilla
Sounds awesome interesting origins
Very few people have covered Shadowhawk
Less than Red Lion even.
Thanks for another great video only heard about this character in a long time ago but never got chance to read it I'll probably Read it because of you guys thank you very much
Shit that's one hell of a super power. They make him bleed that bad guy has a bunch of doctor bills.
Jim Valentino
Awesome thank you. I have the whole collection. Well part 1 and 2. I'm gonna get issue one slabbed one day!!

Great Video From ShaddowHawk
This guy's helmet looks like wolverines mask
I would LOVE to see a video on Top Cow's "The Magdalena".
I think they did one like a month ago talking about them
Great Hero, DC Comics should buy this character, he and his entire lore would fit right in with the DCUniverse.
They wouldn't use, they barely use Wildstorm today.
Where is Jim Valentino? Is he doing okay?
Dope character.
I love this character, he's basically the image comics version of Moon Knight.
Shame he can never seem to catch a break.
Awesome video, Hope for Marvel Darkheart, Marvel Scorpion
Amazing resumen. I want more!
If I remember he was bitten by a vampire & became a vampire himself he then met Vampirella.
I wish the character of shadowhawk would have survived from the launch of image along with spawn and the Savage dragon
Shadowhawk
Looks like a cross between
Wolverine and Batman
But with AIDS.
lol wtf are these writers smoking
@@timetraveler0002
Early image had like 50 wolverine rip offs.
Shadowhawk is so cool
God I wish some of these comics were actually worth something. I still have so much and they are mostly worthless. Such a shame
Him and Mia from Green Arrow are the only comic characters I know to have HIV
Culturally very important
I was going to say Karen from DD but realized that that was only mysterio screwing aeound.
Did he say "retractable clowns"?
Sounded like it
Interesting story
Yeah, I love shadow hawk. I hate the remake giving it mystical powers dumb.
btw they put paul johnstone back after a while
I hated the robot shadow hawk 🤖
Want see him in mcu
Considering than most companies are more concerned in filling a diversity check list than telling a good story, I wonder how ShadowHawk wasn't adapted as a Serie or Movie yet?

i have the first edition and a bunch of other ones
I liked this guy, he was my firdt violent comic book and stood with Spawn and Savage Dragon and one of them was named Eddie 😂
Sounds interesting

He learned it from his mudder or fardder
I was too young when issue one came out to know what HIV even was, now I'm like well this fits perfectly with today's views of super heroes needing some gimmick with the they're genitals or where they go lol
Wow
Ah - Shadow Hawk, image comics Batman clone. Thanks for the summery.
That's my brother's name 😂 he was born in 2017
I miss 90's comics. Distinct costumes and no woke agenda.
the comic was woke for its time tho? image comics was literally progressive as hell when it came to how they let creators keep their work or whatever, unlike the 2 biggest leading comic companies. your shit makes no sense lmao
Is this a troll? The entire history of comic books is “woke”.
Looks like a copy of wolverine
T
Hmm
The actual fuq???
Not at all a Wolverine rip-off....
The artwork is trash!..looks like old valiant comics
Are you fucking kidding me?
Worlds Only Hero No-One Wants to Bang*
There I Fixed It.

There already are transgender superheroes.
tsk tsk tsk. Mediocre storyline for a mediocre superhero. I notice the inspiration custom design was that of wolverine, batman, and spiderman. It moved from a hi-tech armore to a God armored. Most lame and cliche character.
Knock off wolverine/Batman 🤢
?
HIV positive wtf & lol!
Wait till you hear about Chapel from Youngblood.
That 💩 not funny especially the way he got it.
Shadowhawk was always so stupid. Valentino was always a mediocre artist and never a good writer.
Always hated this character. He's the typical Black male character. Ex-con, from Harlem, morally flawed, strong but physically weak due to HIV. Sorry can't get with this.
