Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Darkhawk is a Marvel Comics superhero comic book published from 1991 to 1995, with an extra bonus issue published in 2017. It lasted fifty issues, with all issues (aside from the 2017 one) written by Marvel writer and editor Danny Fingeroth, although the character was created by Marvel writer and editor Tom DeFalco and artist Mike Manley.Chris Powell was a young teenager who, after witnessing his father accepting a bribe from a local mob boss Phillipe Bazin, ran away to an abandoned amusement park where he found a mysterious amulet. The amulet allowed Chris to change into the form of a powerful android he nicknamed "Darkhawk." While Chris controlled Darkhawk, though, his own body stayed in a place called "Null-Space."As Darkhawk, Chris fought against the Hobgoblin, Savage Steel, and Portal, and fought side-by-side with Spider-Man and Captain America. He also fought with the New Warriors and West Coast Avengers.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The book ended at issue #50, with a bonus Marvel Legacy issue #51 in 2017, written by Chris Sims and Chad Bowers. In it, the later retcons done in War of Kings were incorporated into Darkhawk's backstory, where the amulet is actually an artifact from the Fraternity of Raptors, an ancient race of space pirates, and Chris must stop two of them from invading Earth.In 2021, a special one-shot, Darkhawk: Heart of the Hawk, was released with three stories, one from Danny Fingeroth showing Chris during his early days as Darkhawk, one from Dan Abnett from Chris's days fighting in the War of Kings, and one from Kyle Higgins reminiscing about his future before his death.A Sequel Series was announced in 2021 to be written by Kyle Higgens and art by Juanan Ramirez, with a new character design by Pepe Larraz. It will feature a new person controlling the Darkhawk armor. See Darkhawk (2021) for more info.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

| Darkhawk (Comic Book) / int_28cd01ca | comment |
Disappeared Dad: Mike Powell disappeared the night Chris found the amulet, apparently out of shame for taking a bribe. He later shows up as Savage Steel, a supervillain out to kill Phillipe Bazin. | |

Rogues' Gallery Transplant | |
| Darkhawk (Comic Book) / int_2f8c5157 | comment |
Rogues Gallery Transplant: Mild examples. Both the Hobgoblin and Tombstone showed up in early issues as reoccurring villains. In fact, the Hobgoblin was the first super villain he faced. Later, The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants showed up quite a bit despite editors for X-Men comics being very picky about that sort of thing. Even later, Venom, of all people, developed a recurring feud with Darkhawk. Ironically, Darkhawk typically tended to have an easier time against Venom than Spider-Man did, possibly because Darkhawk wasn't psyched out by Venom the way Spidey was. | |

Artifact of Doom | |
| Darkhawk (Comic Book) / int_3b5fcbb7 | comment |
Artifact of Doom: The amulets that give the users armor. It was originally commissioned by an alien crime lord named Dargin Bokk alongside five other amulets. Or maybe not, as the War of Kings retcon has it. | |

Would Hurt a Child: Serial killer Broderick Bozin kills anyone who catches his fancy, including a child in a Bait-and-Switch cliffhanger that implied he killed Chris's brother Jason (he didn't). | |

Brought Down to Normal: When we catch up to Chris in Darkhawk #51, his amulet no longer worked due to the events of War of Kings. He kept the amulet, but decided to become a cop like his dad. | |

Self-Made Orphan: Broderick Bozin killed his and Allegra's mother in his early days as a serial killer. Allegra never told her father what really happened, partially because her mother was abusive, and partially to protect her brother. | |

Cerebus Retcon | |
| Darkhawk (Comic Book) / int_8b67aba7 | comment |
Cerebus Retcon: Not that Darkhawk was ever light and fluffy, but the revelation that Evilhawk—and by implication, Overhawk—were the armor taking temporary control for a brief period casts a darker pall over the appearances of both. | |

Evil Counterpart | |
| Darkhawk (Comic Book) / int_9b54d536 | comment |
Evil Counterpart: Since many suits were made, Darkhawk has encountered a few evil armor-users. As mentioned above, Dargin Bokk was the original commisioner of the suits and wore a version himself,complete with plenty of spikes. There was a dimension-hopping mutant named Portal who used the destroyed remains of a suit of armor. Since the suit was in pieces, he couldn't use any of its powers but it didn't stop him from looking like an evil Darkhawk. | |

Canon Discontinuity | |
| Darkhawk (Comic Book) / int_a32334b4 | comment |
Canon Discontinuity: In his final issues, Darkhawk acquired a new suit of armor and new powers (including finally being able to fly on his own). The series was cancelled, Darkhawk disappeared for a few years and when he came back, he was back to his older design with none of his fancy new powers. Also, War of Kings sheds a new light as to the nature of Darkhawk's origins. However, knowing that Talon was simply manipulating Chris now makes the canon even more uncertain than it was before. | |
