you know kere i really wanted to say something that was not about garth or my silly hawk & dove but after thinking on this for 3 whole days i have come to the conclusion that i would absolutely go forth and strike out a new hawk&dove volume.

i have spoken a little before on some details regarding how i would want to go forward with hawk&dove in the modern era which would involve bringing them forward in the timeline, possibly to about the 90s or if not the 90s then perhaps the early 2000s instead- thus making them 14/15 in these time periods respectively rather than their original time period which was in the 60's-70's... i would focus somewhat more on the brothers and their interpersonal relationship, establishing what kinds of crowds they associate with and getting some proper reoccurring civilian faces associated with the both of them (something lacking until the 80's run and thus after don's death)

i am unsure how many issues i would want it to be as i feel like there is just so much that could be said and done with them!! the very basic idea of hawk & dove just... i feel it lends itself to a lot of really good stories. perhaps hard stories, messy ones, ones that may make people mad at times, but good stories that would make the reader really think and talk. you know?? which i truly do feel was steve ditko's intention in making them to begin with!! i think i would want at least over 20 issues. i would really want the readers to be able to actually form some attachment to the boys and their supporting cast after all.

i feel as for what kind of comic it would be... hm. at its core, h&d is political in nature. it was made very directly as a result of the US-Vietnam conflict. i think it will always work best as not shying away from its inherently political nature and thus should be the kind of comic that has something meaningful to posit about relevant issues in the world. it CAN work fine with its teeth pulled but i am firm in it being exactly that- pulling the teeth from the maw.

ok this was a lot ahah i hope this was a good answer that made sense!! thank you for such a thought provoking question, kere, i appreciate you <3 <3 <3 <3
