Hawkgirl #63 - DC


It seems that Kendra is hot on the trail of Hath-Set. Which has taken her to the museum in Gotham. It seems that they have a lot of old original files, about archaeological digs and finds, that haven't been uploaded to computers yet. So Kendra thinks that she may find something there that will help her to get on Hath-Set's trail. The problem is, Hath-Set knows that she's looking for him, and is doing everything in his power to thwart her attempts. Including possession of a whole bunch of people, including Batman, to try to bring her down by sheer force. And . . . burning down the museum around her. But it seems that our heroes, whom often work together, have back-up plans in place for just such a contingency. So Kendra breaks Batman of Hath-Set's thrall, and in the process Batman knows exactly which file he's been trying to destroy. It's that old, when you possess some one's mind you also give up a bit of yourself, thing. So Batman helps Kendra, she gets further along her trail, and her next stop is Metropolis. Guess who she's teaming up with next issue. I normally really enjoy Walter's stories, but this one, really didn't do anything for me. It was a little sluggish, and forced. And although I've been impressed with Renato's art, in the last few issues, this one, I also didn't feel, was up to the previous standards. So overall, this was a very forgettable issue for me. The only thing that I really did like about it, was the cover. I still think Kendra's pretty hot. Anyways, hopefully we'll get a better issue next time.
