Aquaman is like that one friend in the group that everyone bullies, and Hawkman is the new guy who tries to join in too soon and gets slapped.

Team's opinion of Hawkman: What a pushover. Team's opinion of Aquaman: He is OUR pushover.

_"To the members of the Justice League,_ _Hawkman tried to join our team, to get revenge on you as a super villain. We don't want him, you can have him back._ _Sincerely,_ _The Legion of Doom"_

Hawkman kinda has a point. Can't have recurring villains if you killed them. LOOKING AT YOU, BATMAN!

Whenever Hawkman is in a DC thing he's there to serve as cannon fodder to show off how strong the villain is without killing an actually important character

“Hawkman doesn’t have any notable villains because they’re all dead.” Well, the only one I can think of is Gentleman Ghost, and he IS dead…

Hawkman has the ability to fly, enhanced strength to some degree, near instant healing of wounds, and some iterations of him gave him the ability to talk to birds, power to move large objects with anti gravity, and detect radiation. A support hero maybe, but he was always kind of a specialist that could do things the others could not. What he lacked in the extremes of superman, he made up for in some diverse skill sets. Also, he is a bird guy. That is neat.

As someone who actually likes superheroes, these videos usually end up just making me more interested in genuinely learning about a character. Hawkman is someone who I've always seen on the Justice League and then never really cared enough to look into.

"Hey all i'm hearing is i'm a more effective hero is that a crime" No, No. He's got a point.

"Nods in lack of a voice actress" Somehow, this is infinitely better than you hiring a voice actress. Your dialogue, or lack of, is genius as always

Hawkman has one of the most interesting backstories in comics, has been around since the 1940s, and yet is virtually unknown. How is that possible?

"You stupid-idiot bastard ..." They all see he's trying too hard.

It would have been funny if HawkGirl showed up and the league welcomed her with open arms and respect because she is by far more popular than Hawkman.

The idea of the team playfully making fun of Aquaman and him taking it on The chin knowing that it’s coming from a place of love is such an adorable idea to me

If Hawkman was written properly, it would show that he's the most experienced member of the team. Not just because he was on the JSA but because he literally has thousand of years of experience. He should be figuring out villain's plans faster than the others and setting up counters before he executes them. Having Batman having a plan for every eventuality is sort of silly he's a relative noob and wisdom takes time. He could guide the team when they travel to the past because he lived through many eras. If they weren't in one of his past cities he might have contacts to heroes of that era there.

What made Hawkman a reliable member of the team was the fact, apart from flight, above average strength and long winded reincarnation, his enth metal mace could combat magic, something even superman is vulnerable too, and him having skill in knowing out to fight with his mace gives him a leg up against magical villains

Hawkman: "I can resurrect!" Batman: "Yeah, so can like, half of my kids. You're not special man."

Wonder woman being voice actress-less just means she’s just spectating the entire thing without a word LMAO

Finally someone mentions the mace. I remember Hawk Girl knocking people out with that thing, but there’s spikes, so it looks a lot less gorey than it should. I always wondered if she had some hidden field or power that stopped the spikes from piercing, why the flipping mace then.

the fact their not ok with hawkman using medieval weapons but have aquaman having a literal trident and batman having a batarang

Bullying Aquaman is completely acceptable because they all know he's mad powerful, rich and King of 70% of the planet. It keeps him humble

Adult Swim needs to pick up Solid JJ as a writer so he can help parody the absolute mess that is superheroes

As a huge Hawkman fan this hurts and is funny at the same time.

At least when Hawkman puts an enemy down, he stays down.

Best thing about Hawkman: His stories gave us Hawkgirl/Hawkwoman (Shayera Hol). The better version of him.

I feel bad for him. He’s just doing his best.

*"I retract my last statement"* I'm dead...!!!

He's kind of like Angel from the X-Men. No one knows what to do with him either. He got turned into one of Apocalypse's horse men but I don't think his story went much further than that.

Hawkman is such an enigma. I've seen him in so many DC related stuff including shows, games, and comic book appearances and still know next to nothing about him. He's always just sorta... there...

Batman asking Aquaman if he found Nemo on the way here can be passed as a harmless joke between buddies. Meanwhile, Hawkman straight-up calling him a stupid idiot bastard is just mean.

Their reaction to Hawkman talking is how an introvert imagines things going in their head if they try to join in on the conversation lol

Here's how I though this would go: Batman: "Jesus Christ Hawkman, show some respect" Hawkman: "Bu-but I though we were on the same boat here..." Superman: "Same boat? Now you're just being offensive" Hawkman: "You literally mock him every day" Green Lantern: "We mock Aquaman to humble him, he's literally the richest and most deadly member of the Justice League." Hawkman: "Oh really now? He talks to fish!" Batman: "He's also a sovereign of 70℅ of Earth and controls a portion of Earth's economy" Superman: "And speaking of being dangerous, Hawkman you're a crazy nutjob dressed with overalls over naked body wielding a mace" Hawkman: "FFS Aquaman wears orange fishnets over green pants!" Green Lantern: "And has a cool trident too with immaculate powers" Hawkman: "I discovered a magic metal that can shape-shift into anything!" Batman: "Yet you still can't use it more creatively, unlike Hal here who can use his ring to create literally anything, he beats you in that apartment" Hawkman: "I can come back to life after death!" Green Lantern: "As a totally different person burdened with inexperience and cursed with madness of previous life, like that is useful" Batman: "You also don't have any cool supervillains"

I remember Hawkman, he felt like the member of the JLA who wasn't as main as the rest, but was always great

Fun fact: Hawkman has one of the most absurdly complex and confusing histories in the DC Universe.

Lost it when they started singing.. "For he's a jolly, good fellow!"

I like how Hawkman just sounds like swaggersouls

This gets even funnier when you realize that Hawkgirl completely outshines Hawkman in the DC universe. Normally they'd have a male hero with a female counterpart (batgirl, supergirl, aquagirl, ect.) that feels like an offshoot of them; but in this case you've got Hawkgirl taking the center stage while Hawkman comes off as a male offshoot of HER.

Well to quote from Peacemaker: "If you're a hero why don't you have any arch-nemesis?" "Cause all of them are six-feed under" Hawkman has a point there

Hawkman is battling immortal wizards who tries to bend the fabrics of reality for breakfast. But then he dies, resurrects and forget about it.

I've been tearing up at these man, keep making them pleaseee😂😂😂😂😂

There's something weirdly wholesome about everyone apologizing to Aquaman and he's so chill about the whole thing. Kudos to him and everyone else.

Honestly I don't blame them for ganging up on Hawkman. When Batman made a joke about Nemo, it was light hearted banter and the rest actually found it funny. Hawkman on the other hand went in and called Aquaman a "stupid idiot bastard" which is just straight up bullying that the others obviously didn't find funny So yeah, Hawkman deserved that

I love your channel keep up the great stuff!

these skits are genius. thanks for the hard work

For those who know nothing about Hawkman or are curious as to what he contributes: Back in the 60s and 70s, the JLA’s satellite was built using mostly Thanagarian technology, including teleporters, invisibility devices, radiometers, and anti-gravity devices in ships and flying cars. He was also the chief intelligence member of the team, being able to communicate with birds which could witness crimes and trail criminals, and often took most of monitor duty, the role Martian Manhunter took in the Justice League show (in the 60s, J’onn was essentially a backup Superman). He even had a global mind-reading device that he only used in emergency to learn the identities of his teammates so that they could assemble during a ban on heroes. Personality-wise, he was stoic and professional, which led to him often butting heads with the loud-mouthed cynical Green Arrow. He was best friends with the Atom, who he would call on the phone to bring to meetings since the Atom can travel through phone lines. He also often vouched for his wife, Hawkgirl, by bringing her along on adventures, insisting that Superman change the bylaws to allow her on the team, and taking time away from the team when she needed help.

aquaman is only a meme until you realize he can summon a giant squid whenever he likes.

I can't get over how Hawkman sounds so much like SwaggerSouls. I think the "next" time Hawkman shows up in an episode you should have him guest star and see how many people notice

>this is the most viewed youtube video about Hawkman > > to be Hawkfan (yes, we exist) is to suffer

I like that Aquaman doesn't actually have any reactions to the jokes until Hawkman insults him, and then Aquaman just looks at him like "Dude, really?" And then at the end, when the team was apologizing, Aquaman was just like "it's all good" with a big smile to show he was a good sport about the humor. He seemed to understand they were just joking around with him, but glares at Hawkman since he could see Hawkman didn't understand it was a joke. SolidJJ needs to write his own cartoon or something. He's awesome at this.

I like how Hawk Man was the first to verbally attack everyone, but as soon as they start questioning him, he goes all defensive and "high and mighty"

Whenever hawk man talked in this I just hear swagger souls.

I-is that swaggersouls voicing Hawkman? If not, sounds a lot like him

No but really, I get that the joke is that Aquaman is lame but I like to think that the JL acknowledge and actually respect him because he covers a large specialty that none of the other heroes can cover as well as he can. The ocean is 2/3's of the world and Aqua keeps track of all that, so while its funny to poke at him sometimes because he's not as useful on land as he is in the water, he's still a very core member to a group that wants to protect the *entire* world.

Flash: "Do you have any other super powers." Hawkman: "I have a girlfriend, for eternity"

Either this man is swaggersouls Or Can mimic him on like A perfect level

YES! And you sir just earned my subscription. 😁👍🏾

Batman: Refuses to kill the Joker causing thousands more innocent people to die Hawkman: Bludgeons evildoers to death with a mace Which one is the real hero?

“You’re hitting people with medieval weaponry.” Okay, Lantern, that’s kinda unfair considering we have Batman over here with razor-sharp boomerangs that could easily kill someone just as easily.

Hawk man sounds like swagger souls

1:44 Anyone else think it’s cool that this could be a reference to all pharaohs being the avatar of Horus. The reincarnation of pharaohs in some way.

I kinda like the interpretation that Aquaman is actually competent and an integral part of the team, but they call him useless as a light-hearted inside joke Edit: I am well aware Aquaman is actually super powerful and a very successful superhero in the comics, but in these sorts of parodies he's not, and that's what I'm commenting on

The sad thing (to me here) is really really could have spun the reincarnation power into being useful. Where he points out that Batman or somebody trained for twenty to thirty years and has that much experience but Hawkman keeps getting new experience and training and remembers the countless Prior ones to have hundreds of years of experience

The comedic timing of the lines is just insanely good

1:23 he uses that ring to make miniguns... and fighter jets, giant hammers, big swords, and at one A Mace...

I love the idea of the Justice League or "Super Friends" being total BROS with each other, making fun of each other but still being true friends at the end of the day.

It’s a real shame. He’s actually a really cool character. It sucks that so many people don’t know or care about him.

Alan Alda as Hawkman is a stroke of voice actor casting genius.

bruh hawk man sounds just like swagger souls, no joke.

2:27 "He's the bloody King of Atlantis. He owns two thirds of the planet. He can command Cuthulu. You don't mess with Aquaman."

Hawkman is the quiet kid in the back who's trying his best to make friends.

I swear to god Hawk-man’s voice reminds me of Swaggersouls

This video is perfect with the voice of Swagger sauce as Hawk man

The answer to "what he contributes" is basically "magic mace that stop magic good". So, in summary, the single most transferable trait possible of "I have this one weapon" is his only reason to be on the team other than a need for extra flying people.

"You're going to call me useless when AQUAMAN'S on the team?" "I rule over 2/3 of the entire planet. What the fuck do you do?" "..."

i cant get over how much hawkman sounds like swaggersouls to me and i have no idea if im just completely insane or others think the same

Hawk sounds like swaggersouls

Aquaman absolutely deserved that apology. He's a king, after all. And a king of one of DC's most powerful armies

You know Green Lantern’s got a point. Being hit with Hawkman’s mace is like being hit with a planet. Also in modern comics Hawkman can “reincarnate immediately” which means he is pretty much Wolverine.

I like how he's trying to establish his presence, i feel sad for him.

Hawkman sounds exactly like swagger souls. To a t

"Yeah but he's rich." The greatest power of all.

Aquaman's happy expression at the end honestly warmed my heart.

That "I retract my last statement" was golden lol.

2:51 Batman face explains everything

This is straight out of the comics. There was a point where Hawkman would show up and start going nuts murdering things with his mace, and of the other heroes would ask who invited him. I don’t remember what comic it was in, I think it was around the beginning of flashpoint.

This is rather heartwarming, actually. Aquaman just doing his job (and memes influenced by the Superfriends cartoon aside, he *is* a powerful superhero), and other members of the team really noticing and appreciating that... it's just nice. As silly as Solid jj's videos are, they are always weirdly in character for whoever features in them. I'd feel more sorry for Hawkman if not for the implication that he clubs petty criminals to death. Y'know, almost immediately after mentioning he stopped a *purse snatcher* he reasons that there's nothing wrong with taking out his enemies permanently. Not a great look, dude. (not to mention, immediately going to "you stupid idiot bastard" is not exactly on the same level as relatively good-natured jokes about Aquaman.)

hawkmans voice sounds like swagger bruh

Why does solid JJ have such a strong Swaggersouls impression

There was a point in time where Hawkman and Hawkgirl were merged into one being to fix continuity errors in the DC universe... They fumbled that so much that writers didn't want to use him due to how complicated they made their history.

You know you're a lame character when your female counterpart, who was created after you and almost no one knew about until she took your place in a tv show, is SIGNIFICANTLY more popular buy an incalculable margin

I swear I've heard Hawkman's voice before....in Counterstrike Gameplay.

The fact that it cut away right as they started singing "For He's A Jolly Good Fellow" may be the best part

Having Batman tell you something you did was "pretty smart" is the absolute highest compliment you can receive from the caped crusader.

HawkMan really brings a lot to the table

Hawkman sounds like swaggersouls

Is that fucking swaggersouls

Would love to see the villainous version of this. Just because of the disconnect of one set of baddies being "clown" and another being "baby that was torturously made into the ultimate lifeform".

I was almost 100% certain that was Swagger voicing Hawkman after hearing him say "y'know" a few times.
