Summary

Before his legendary runs on GREEN LANTERN, JUSTICE LEAGUE and THE FLASH, Geoff Johns reinvigorated another iconic DC hero—Hawkman! 

As he struggles to adjust to his new life, Hawkman tries desperately to rekindle his relationship with Hawkgirl. But with no precious memories of their shared past, she wants nothing to do with him—until she learns that the deaths of her parents years ago were actually murders, and she is forced to enlist Hawkman’s help in unlocking the mystery and finding their killer.
