First Picture of Shanks as Hawkman (Smallville)

I have to say, it looks pretty faithful to the comic.

It's a stargate reunion/small number of Canadian actor

You share a relationship with these actors?
Yeah. Brent Stait (Kent Nelson/Dr. Fate) was with me thirteen years ago on the Stargate pilot. Brent and I just shot a very touching moment between our characters. And oddly enough I worked with Britt Irvin (Courtney Whitmore/Stargirl) in Stargate’s third season when she was like 15 years ago. And now she’s all grown up.


I wonder if it's that girl from the "Learning Curve" the season 3 episode

It is! http://gateworld.net/sg1/s3/305.shtml
 
Wow, they do that, but they can't even get Welling into a halfway decent costume?

My thoughts exactly!

More than just the costume, its the writing. They bring on Geoff Johns to write faithful Legion and JSA episodes. Why the heck can't they have him also write a regular episode about Clark himself?
 
Yeah Well...
Just have him put on The Suit being in the same room with Hawkman and no one will even notice he looks any different. ;-)
 

I've never seen that Stargate episode so my first exposure to her was V. She plays a background character so far in the first two episodes. She's on staff at the media house that Scott Wolfe's character works for.

As for Hawkman I suppose the outfit is fairly good all things considered. The pose in that photo looks awkward but it could be it looks better 'in motion'.
 
Sorry but the first thing that sprung to mind when i saw that was "Gordon's alive!?!". Its like someone's shaved Brian Blessed.
 
If that's a photo, color me impressed. Now let's see some Fate and Stargirl in-costume!

Also, the interview was very interesting to me, especially the bits that the JSA was active in the 70s but disbanded to poor public reception, there's trust issues between Hawkman/Manhunter, and Stargirl is new on the scene and unknown to Fate or Hawkman (or, assumedly, any of Clark's gang).
 

THANK YOU for posting this.

That's a REAL superhero costume! Take THAT Impulse and Green Arrow!

I just want to hear how they'll explain Shanks as Hawkman, if he's 'a hero from a generation past'. The age doesn't quite fit.

They reference in the article that Hawkman's immortal. Perhaps that is their way-around.

Am I crazy, or is that "picture" just a painting? I think it's just concept art, not an actual photo.

It is the real deal. Why publish it saying it is if it isn't? Besides, it is too detailed for concept art. The fact that it is small where we cannot really see the nitty-gritty details of the costume, I guess, gives it a false illusion.
