I'm not a fan of Hawkman -- nothing against the hairy-chested Thanagarian; I just haven't given him much thought -- but glimpses of Kyle Baker's upcoming DC Comics project have me a little excited.

Announced by Baker in October, the book is being teased as "ultra-realistic and violent." How violent? Well, there's a scene in which Aquaman's giant seahorse is killed by a Tyrannosaurus rex.

On Friday Baker posted a couple of pages from the comic, saying that he should finish the art over the weekend. Maybe we'll see an official announcement, and release date, during New York Comic Con.
