Hannibal Hawkes, also known as Nighthawk, was an 19th Century gunslinger and partner of Cinnamon. He was also one of the reincarnations of Ktar Deathbringer.[1]


Powers

  • Reincarnation: As a punishment for his crimes, God locked Ktar Deathbringer in a cycle of death and rebirth throughout the centuries. While not a superhuman power per se, this propensity for reincarnation has allowed him to cheat death and return to life in subsequent incarnations. After he died while trying to stop the Lord Beyond the Void as Carter Hall, his curse was lifted.[2]

Abilities

Equipment


  • Nighthawk is one of the previous incarnations of the hero Hawkman, who has been on a reincarnation cycle for millennia.[1]
