Is it just me or does anyone here think that HAWKGIRL should change her name to HAWKWOMAN. Every time I hear her name I think that Hawman has a teenage sidekick instead of a full grown woman. And every time that I see and hear about their relationships it sounds like adult-teen romance...which is forbidden in the US (look back in the Captain Marvel/Stargirl relationship, the JSA thought that it was wrong...).
Hawkgirl
Character » Hawkgirl appears in 1703 issues.
Hawkgirl is the reincarnated spirit of Chay-Ara. Born on Thanagar, she gained the rank of lieutenant in her world and was subsequently sent to Earth on a mission, but during her stay, she grew to love Earth and care for its inhabitants, eventually becoming known to the people as the superheroine Hawkgirl.
Change Name-Title "Hawkgirl" to "Hawkwoman"
" "If you can't say anything nice... then take your on advice. AMP asked a perfectly reasonable question.
@AMP - Seeker of Lost Knowledge:
@xerox-kitty:
Hawkwoman is another character the Hawkgirl name goes to the character that is reincarnated, Hawkwoman is the alien.
In short the name should not be changed.
" Power Girl is in her late 20's and she's still Power GIRL "She's just in denial ;)
The only reason these characters go by the suffix "girl" rather than "woman" is because the extra sylable changes the pattern of the word and extra sylables on words don't usually sound right, that's why I don't really like the suffix "woman" to be applied to a character (whether they deserve it or not) and I guess that's why comics don't have it either.

"ooo when did this romance happen? [: I'm very intrigued.
