There may be slight errors w/ "SilverHawks" both modern and 1987. Both old and new have indicias that state "SILVERHAWKS," one word and all capitals. The CPG 1987 listing has it as two words. May be some confusion, even on part of the comic's writers since both also have "SilverHawks" written. "S" and "H" capitalized as if it should be two words. It has it this way on the inside cover of modern and first page of 1987. Error to be fixed or am I missing something? Thanks

link to comics.org indicia pic for the 1987 series, confirms it's one word, so CPG has it wrong for the last 38 years.

As for the capitalization, it makes no sense to me. If you're gonna make it 1 word, then don't capitalize the H too. And the 87 series has the title on 2 lines, making it seem like 2 words, but the indicia says otherwise. But Marvel often does that with the cover titles for style/space reasons, drives me nuts sometimes trying to look stuff up. The original cartoon series logo has it as SilverHawks too, yet another logo has that separated by their hawk symbol so it's 2 words. Some database sites use SilverHawks, others use Silverhawks or all caps. makes no diff for search terms as long as it's 1 word.

I m impartial to the spelling. I get tired of unsealing comics when sorting to see if indicia shows what the cover title seems to be. I guess thats art, tho, and the covers would be kinda "blah" or uptight if they were more formal. Hopefully CPG will change one tho so both old and new titles appear together.
