   Well, I'll admit, the Flash Gordon series was lame.  I tried to watch   
   it.  I am a huge John Carter, Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon, Adam Strange   
   fan, and that show should have been right up my ally, but it was just a   
   weak attempt at a fun character.   The Hawkmen to me were the first sign   
   the show was a half-arse attempt at the comic for television.  No wings,   
   but they had capes/cloaks to help them glide/fly.  An interesting   
   concept if they were not Hawkmen.
