The DC Extended Universe is about to get some new heroes later this year, when Black Adam makes its debut in theaters. Among the film’s ensemble will be Carter Hall / Hawkman, who will be portrayed by Underground and The Invisible Man star Aldis Hodge, and will be one of several members of the Justice Society of America introduced in the film. On Wednesday, it was revealed that the canon of the Black Adam movie is set to be explored in a Black Adam — Justice Society Secret Files series, which will include a number of one-shots about the film’s characters. The debut issue will begin with a story about Hodge’s Hawkman, and the actor recently took to Instagram to celebrate the news. In a post, which you can check out below, Hodge said that “as a kid who grew up on comics and graphic novels, and then grew into an adult that still collects them, [he] can’t even begin to express how cool this is,” while also shouting out writer Cavan Scott and artist Norm Rapmund.
