Sorry to hear you're feeling low (if it matters at the moment it's not showing in the videos, other than as maybe a sharper edge, "If he's getting his M'am to spread her legs every other issue", but that works). I'm currently experiencing a forced move of living accommodations, and after an initial golden high I'm seeing a little tarnish... but, fuck it, we soldier on. Don't stop the vids unless you're put out more by the effort, you really do produce excellent content.
One of the many characters created in the 90s where it feels like they just thought of a name & look (in this case a stolen one) and tried to build around it. Like a toy basically.
I think it's a bit more than that. The scales of crap were on one side you had crap like Darkhawk, Sleepwalker or Deathlok which were basically comics you wouldn't necessarily fault someone for getting something out of. They were a bit more modest, there was maybe a talent hidden somewhere in the mix, they were not TOO cynical either, they were like real books but they were only ever average at their absolute best. Then you had the other half which were the real thankless dross like Nightwatch or Fantastic Force. They are the ones that last in your memory and cloud your perception of the ones like Darkhawk. There's a few issues of Darkhawk where MIke Manley gets bored and suddenly decides to be McFarlane/Larsen/Liefeld.
That was one of the big scenes early on. He was in his bedroom and he took the helmet off in front of a mirror and, we didn't see it, but he was terrified of whatever was under the helmet. I'm pretty sure they even made a trading card of that moment, it is far and away the only Darkhawk scene of any notability. Then in that War of Kings story, in the page I show even, they just say "nah you imagined all that, you made up a monster underneath the helmet because you couldn't handle the truth - THAT YOU WERE UNDERNEATH THE HELMET!"
Darkhawk was kind of a low rent retread of Spider-Man and Daredevil, who probably would have done better sales wise in the 90s if he wasn't up against Image comics and the old guard Marvel and DC heroes, and Marvel editorial being dysfunctional and rudderless.

Tombstone should cheer you up. But then there’s Venom. Popping uppers and downers there.
At least it's not the 5 different coloured symbiote spawn with awful names like Licker and Lasher.
If you need to take a break again you should. Or just do more vidyas about hot moms in comics. That’ll work.
Unfortunately... Peter Gillis tomorrow...
Does he ever take the armor off while in that body?

Darkhawk was more a low rent retread of Nova. A copy of a copy of Spider-Man.
