When you think about it, they actually appear in a lot of shit. Hawkman was a regular in the Superfriends show and appeared in that live-action Adam West Batman special. Hawkgirl was made into one of the original seven in the Justice League cartoon, Hawkman had a pretty big role in Smallvile, they appeared in the Arrowverse, Hawkman was in the Black Adam movie, and now Hawkgirl is in Gunn's Superman.
>>151721895They have a strong visual presence and are flexible enough to reinterpreted in a variety of ways to fit the medium they're in. They also don't need too much in terms of special effects, just some prop wings and wire work and you're good, so they're cheaper to adapt than characters that need tons of effects to seem authentic.
>>151721895Always found them boring losers. Their power is having wings (weak points) and a mace, and tuat's the lamest shit ever. The newest Superman movie was a bit of an exception, just because Dora was kinda hot as Hawk Tuah Girl
>>151721895Remember when they got their own live-action porn parody?
>>151721895They looks cool, but you need a good budget to pull them off or else they look silly. Also, goddamn it pisses me off how shit the DCU’s costume designers are
>>151721895They are really really super easy to include in a team movie. They don't have weird expensive to portray powers, they don't require lots of explanation for existing or explaining what they powers are either. You can very clearly see what their powers are and what they are about without needing to explain shit. Makes them perfect for adding in extra team members in an ensemble show since they cannot take time to explain all the background characters. You see winged guy with a mace and know what's up. They have wings, fly, and hit shit with a mace. They are the best possible entry level heroes for any director to stick into their show/movie ever.
>>151721895They have a simple distinct look with simple weapons and they have some name recognition, no shit they keep being used
>>151721895Their lore is infamously convoluted
>>151721895To be fair Geoff Johns was involved in at least half of the projects that included themAnd he's got a bit of a boner for Carter
>>151721895No they aren’t
>>151724342Not as much as people make it out to be.
>>151721895the actress from legends had buck teeth but was hot otherwise
