I was a little (okay, a LOT) confused about Hawkgirl showing up at the end of JLU. Was she just hanging out at that turns-to-an-ankh dude's place? And if so, why?

Well, we're probably not meant to know the "why" yet, but it's still confusing to me.

Also, who is turns-to-an-ankh dude, and is he a good guy? I was assuming he's a good guy b/c he was on the JLU space station, but then the end seemed a bit ominous. Or at least grey.

See I saw last season's finale, but I didn't get why GL would think Hawkgirl was on the GL home base world.

Also, I got the impression that the Ankh guy (Fate?) is good/neutral.

I got the impression that he's not looking for Hawkgirl, he wants to get as far away from her as possible.

I thought what Tom thought. Though it would have made more sense earlier in the season.

Steph, you mean Dr. Fate? Because if I try to explain that character, I'm going to get all kinds of confused, as I don't know which version they're using for JLU. Though the current continuity comics Dr. Fate would be hanging with Hawkgirl because she's his mother reincarnated, and also his cousin. Oh, and Current Comics Dr. Fate is Hector Hall, who you may remember from Sandman as the deceased husband of Lyta Hall, father of Daniel, he who is now Dream of the Endless.

The animation version of whats-his-name. He originally made an appearance on Superman: The Animated Series.

Thanks, Tom!

My goodness that is sooo confusing.

Well what can you expect from 60+ years of retconning?

Another connection between Hawkgirl and Dr. Fate (at least in some of their incarnations) is that they're both originally archeologists.

But in brief, Steph, Dr. Fate is the #1 Magic guy in the DCverse. Parallel to Dr. Strange. Plus he always just looked cool.
