Reading this book was like reading three storylines: the story of the Fadeaway Man and his crew out to get Hawkman, the story of Satana and her gang trying to seize control of the city's organized crime, and the story of the Golden Eagle character.

This is how you do the hawks, not that New 52 junk.
This was my first exposure to Hawkman. After reading this collection I was left asking myself, "Where can I get me some more Hawkman?" Turns out he is a bad ass.
There is some really good art here, especially some brutal fight scenes. There are also some good story elements but as a whole its just average. At times there was way too much exposition and at others none. Hawkman's history is already nearly impossible to understand and it was compounded by the antagonists here. I thought Fadeaway Man (terrible name) was done well but the "criminal element" in St. Roch was a joke. Kendra and Carter will always be the most interesting thing about this Hawkman
Library copy. Reading Hawkman and JSA books today always makes me wonder why I wasn't reading back when they juts came out. Eaglesham and Bennett really make this book come to life.
