On the other hand, the LL probably would intervene if there was a metahuman attempt to take over an existing government. If Ultizon decides to conquer Montenegro they'd be on the first LairJet out there. If they learned that the Supreme Interference was working behind the scenes running Spain they'd feel obliged to intervene. Yet they didn't involve themselves in Sybia or Spango or Candia, even when the U.S Government went in to Sybia. It's interesting to work out exactly where the line is.
> > I'm not a big expert on DC anyhow. What's the current status of Hawkman and Hawkwoman? The last stuff I read about them was the Johns run that established that all Hawkmen were in fact the same Hawkman.

> Hawkgirl is pretty much in the same boat, except there was a Thanagarian known as Hawkwoman who was not a reincarnation. She was killed during one part of DC's last big mega event.

Having the same role and name as a more established superhero is eventual suicide.
Of course Superman might need a new name and costume soon too, depending on how the Shuster court case goes.
