I just wish it was a more current look. Or my favorite and will probably never see the HawkWorld look.
That would be an AWESOME custom to make!
I have a special love for Hawkworld. First: it was draw by an Argentinian (Quique Enrique Alcatena) when not many argentinians were working for DC or Marvel.
Second: it was the thing that begun the disaster! of continuity of Hawkman and DC after Crisis (Only because it was introduce in the modern 90's inthead of him coming in the 60's)
And for last his armor/costume is AMAZING! would be a very challenging Mod to do.
Origin gave us a good modern Hawkman, this looks to be a good Silver Age Hawkman. I'd also like to see a good Hawkworld Hawkman (and Hawkwoman), but I'm happy to have gotten the other two first.
I do think with 25 NEW characters in the set, then 30 rehashes (including duos) is fine. And of course, I am one of the biggest duo fans!
I wish that the Clark Kent had been a duo figure with Jimmy or Lois on the sculpt, but with their back turned to him so they couldn't see him opening up his shirt to reveal his costume.
Hawkman/Atom duo: sweet
Harley/Ivy duo: sweet
Batman/Catwoman duo: way sweet
Braniac/Luthor duo (maybe from Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow): way sweet
Heck, I still think the zombie Giant Man should have been an actual duo figure with Black Panther!
But I'm biased about the duos for several reasons: One, they offer more comic relevancy. Two, it reminds me of playing with Super Powers toys or the DC Roleplaying game and teaming up the heroes. Three, the sculpts "usually" look pretty darn cool (ie Batman/Robin)!

I hope that Martian Manhunter has more than just 1 Justice League keyword.
If recent keyword form holds up, here will be Martian Manhunter's ONLY keyword:
Keyword: Justice League Task Force issue # 4 second European printing with Image redemption coupon and 3-D foilographic cover where Martian Manhunter did something really really cool and character-defining but we don't really remember what it was but it might have been something to do with invisibility and mind control and Gypsy and Vixen and a large tub of butter in the JLA Satellite during a lunar eclipse which lasted for 17 minutes but hey he's a single guy and he was the last flipping Martian alive and his whole planet was dead and he was really lonely and was kind of allergic to cats and didn't have time to walk a dog and his apartment was really small but he could have gotten a small dog maybe a dachshund but we hear that Martians actually eat dogs on Malloween Eve so don't even try to judge him unless you are like Oprah or Dr. Phil or something professional and all that like Tommy Lee or that ShamWow guy who's always on the tv selling ShamWow and SlapChop and I would like a SlapChop for Christmas because I hate cutting up vegetables to make salsa and then he had a difficult time adjusting to human life but he became a super detective like Monk or Sherlock Holmes and hey I thought that would be a good movie but it doesn't look like a good movie even though Robert Downey was really good in Iron Man and then Martian Manhunter called himself John Jones and you don't really need him on a theme team anyway do you? isn't it better if you play without keywords all that probability control and battlefield condition cancellation and map choice is useless anyway and hey you're lucky you're even getting the JLA team ability lucky I tell you back in the day we used to play Cosmic Justice Martian Manhunter without keywords because we didn't need no stinkin' keywords so don't complain about these keywords because we could have done it like Omega Red or that future Cyclops with the long silky hair I think he must use Pantene but if not it might just be Head & Shoulders because his hair is really luxurious and his scalp is never dry or oily and we gave him no keywords whatsoever! heck now that you're complaining we are just going to take away that JLA team ability so he can look naked like Hammer of Thor's naked common Thor without the Avengers team ability so how's that? that's what you get for complaining about keywords and the Martian Manhunter Origin sculpt all the darn time you get a naked Martian Manhunter doing nothing but sitting on a pile of cookies actually that sounds like a practical joke so maybe we won't even put this figure out in the next set so guess what no Martian Manhunter in Brave & The Bold for you period Mr. Complainey Pants!
That is all!
That is one looooooooooooooong keyword! The problem is, you may have trouble finding another character who will share that keyword and you know Martian Manhunter will be Unique or cost 151 points or more so that keyword is out too...
SPOILER ALERT:
I'm not exactly sure it will fit on the card, but I heard through a friend of an acquaintance's barber who lives in Hong Kong and sells really bendy Secret Invasion chase figures by the truckload that this is his ACTUAL keyword!

Once again I say that I won't be completely happy until we've done every character in HeroClix.

Hawkman/Atom is a common (white)/ Manhunter is an uncommon (grey)? Is that correct? The Clark Kent is a green which would mean a rare.
Actually, you've got Clark and Manhunter backwards....
White tab--Common
Green tab--Uncommon
Silver tab--Rare
Gold tab---Super-Rare/LE
Sometimes, the silver tab looks almost white, and you have to look at either the card and/or the set number to verify rarity. Or, you can check the fact that you have six Hawkman/Atom figures, but only managed to scrounge one Manhunter in your brick. (heh, heh)
