Notes

• Apparently criminals, or at least Lola Darling, know something about the Hawks' secret identities. Lola, while grabbing and chloroforming Hawkgirl: "We'll see what sort of bargain I can make with this Hawkman, with Shiera's life as the price for my safety." How did she know Shiera's first name?
