I would not sell my collection, for if I did, I would cry (Part 106)...

 Today's In The History Of Polt's Comic Book Collection

Today, we travel back to September of 2009, the month and year I moved into my house, and DC's Justice League Cry For Justice. 

I'm gonna be honest with you, I don't remember much about this series.  I know it's right before the Poo52 destroyed everything good about DC in that craptastic reboot.  But DC wasn't as good right before then anyway...maybe that's why I don't know remember a lot about this miniseries.   

I do remember the "Justice League" in this series was as a weird one: among it's members were brand new members Supergirl, Congorilla, Starman II, and Captain Marvel JR, along established heroes like Green Arrow, Green Lantern and the Atom.  I wasn't opposed to new members (except maybe Congorilla, an E or F-List hero at best!), but for them all to be dumped in at once, without a large number of established heroes was a bit much. 

Again, I really remember nothing about this series, so that tells you how good it actually was.

 Heroes Of Two Earths

Today we have the Hawkmen! 

Hawkman of Earth-2, Carter Hall, on the left.  Archeologist, Egyptologist, discovered he was the reincarnation of an ancient Pharoh.  Found the Nth metal, it allowed him to fly, and he became Hawkman.  Fought evil during WWII.  Was a member of the wartime All-Star Squadron.  Was founding member, chairman and longtime member of the JSA.

Hawkman of Earth-1, Katar Hol, on the right.  He's an alien policeman from the planter Thanagar.  Using Thanagar science, and the Nth metal they made, he came to Earth in his spaceship, and lived and worked here, fighting crime and joining the JLA. 

I'd be remiss in not noting that Hawkman1 has gone through so many freaking reboots and rewrites, that I currently have no idea what his origin actually is.  So I'm going with the one I know, the one that was the case up until circe 1990 when DC started fucking around with the character and his origin and messed everything up royally.

Two worlds, one family (Part 14)...

 Heroes Of Two Earths

Today we have roughly the same person: Earth-2's Hawkgirl (on left) and Earth-1's Hawkwoman (on right).  

Both were the wives of Hawkman.  Hawkgirl was Shiera Sanders Hall, and was a reincarnation of an Egyptian queen (don't ask, it's too complicated).  She was active during WWII fighting alongside the All-Star Squadron, and although her husband was the longtime member and chairman of the JSA, she didn't join officially until decades later.  Together they had a son, Hector, who became a hero himself and gave them a grandson Daniel.  Hawkwoman was Shayera Hol and, like her husband, was an alien from the planet Thanagar.   They both were law enforcement there and came to Earth and stayed here.  Both were members of the JLA. They had no children.  So once again (like the Green Lanterns) Earth-2 heroes get their power from magic (reincarnation, Nth metal magical metal forged in ancient Egypt allowing them to fly) while Earth-1 heroes get their power from science (alien technology far beyond ours makes Nth metal allowing them to fly and giving them a spaceship to travel in a live in in Earth orbit).
