Is Connor Hawke a freakin metahuman or not
(I know he becomes a metahuman during ga/bc but that’s not what I’m talking about)
In 2002 there was a book titled JLA: Ultimate Guide to the Justice League of America, published by DK Publishing with a “From the Archives of DC Comics” stamp on the front. It says, and I quote, “Years studying hand to hand fighting at the ashram have honed Connor into an unparalleled opponent whose metagene enables him to have phenomenal ‘physical memory.’ Once he has witnessed a move, Connor can instantly adapt it to his own growing repertoire of martial arts disciplines.” I have NO clue where they got that info
Tumblr media
In Robin #79 written by Chuck Dixon in 2000, Connor fights a demon but gets knocked out. Tim Drake thinks to himself that Connor is “a major league meta-human all star.” Chuck wrote that! At that point he had written more Connor content than any other writer!
Tumblr media
In 2002’s Green Arrow #14, after Connor gets shot by Onomatopoeia, a news anchor says ““…but sources tell us that as he’s not a meta human…”

Does he have a frickin meta gene or not lol
