I am currently reading the series Hawkman and am very confused. The history of Hawkman is very confusing to me. I remember when he was a bird man being, but now he is a man with a bow and arrow. How did this happen? I am to understand that there are many iterations of the character Hawkman, each with their own contradictory origin. How did the current iteration of Hawkman come in to being? What is the story of his bow and arrow? What happened to the old Hawkman?

I am going to take this at face value.

You are confusing the DC character Hawkman with the Marvel character Hawkeye.

Similar names, different characters.

He brought the X-Men back after 6 years on the shelf, and he turned them into the cultural behemoth they are today by injecting their tales with necessary diversity of race, culture and viewpoint. That bar we’re still trying to raise? He helped set it in the first place. RIP.

OKJA and THE LOST CITY OF Z were both shot by Darius Khondji. They’re also two of the best films this year, and that’s no coincidence.

.
In Z, Khondji makes watching James Gray’s period adventure feel like discovering a relic, marrying light with fog and trees to make it feel like more than just reflection. It’s a living part of the celluloid, like a dream of a past life unfolding at 24 frames per second.
.
In contrast, for Bong Joon-ho’s OKJA he paints with shadow, punctuating the emotional heft of what is, for the most part, the loopiest dark comedy this side of BURN AFTER READING. It’s a deeply uncomfortable film, but its intermittent rays of hope are allowed to stand out amidst an intentionally drab palette like candles in absolute blackness, as he obscures even the lush greens of rural Korea in favour of moral and narrative uncertainty.
.
Khondji’s name received the loudest cheer after Z’s premiere at last year’s New York Film Festival, and rightly so. I wasn’t at OKJA’s Cannes debut this past May, but I wouldn’t be surprised to learn the reaction was similar.

Both films are streaming now.
