TITANTALK 016: "Hawk and Dawn" is Up!


"What happened to my mom, to everyone we love who was hurt and killed, it was an accident.  It’s not fair.  It’s not fair that it wasn’t anyone’s fault…that there isn’t anyone out there to blame.  To go after.  To hate."
"Life isn’t fair."
"Why not?  Why can’t we make it fair?"
-- Dawn Granger and her support group advisor, Titans: "Hawk and Dawn"

Hello again, Titans fans!  My fellow TitanTalker Jesse Jackson and I are back with another new episode of TitanTalk: The Titans Podcast!  This time, we discuss "Hawk and Dawn", the ninth episode of the DC Universe series Titans, featuring the return of Alan Ritchson as Hawk and Minka Kelly as the second Dove, along with Marina Sirtis as Marie Granger and Elliot Knight as Don Hall, the original Dove!

TITANS TOGETHER!

In this episode, Jesse and I discuss things like wanting a little more effort into the generic episode titles, wondering why "Hank and Dawn" aired in the episode order that it did, writer Brad Meltzer not being able to enjoy many "whodunnit" stories anymore, Star Trek: The Next Generation actress Marina Sirtis, Hank's brother Don talking him into becoming Hawk and Dove, the original Hawk and the Dove comic book series by Steve Ditko, Hank being sexually molested as a child by his football coach to protect Don, Hank and Don's prototype Hawk and Dove costumes and their first outing fighting crime, Dawn trying to convince her mother Marie to leave her abusive husband, some background on Dawn's sister Holly Granger, Hank and Dawn's fateful first meeting, the second Dove being created by former OG TitanTalkers Barbara Kesel and Rob Liefeld, more Hawk and Dove easter eggs, Hawk and Dawn developing their relationship out of their shared tragedy, wondering if Hawk is addicted to painkillers, wondering why Titans' Hawk and Dove don't have superpowers, Dawn going after the coach who molested Hank as a child, Rachel trying to contact Hank in his dream, our favorite quotes of the episode, new feedback from DJ Nik in Milan, Italy, and more!
