Someday I'll get through all of Blackhawks but in the meantime, why don'tcha check out this very nifty site that has oodles and oodles of information (and ART!) dedicated to that fightin' squadron.

Some of these sites are their archived version, due to the ethereality of the internet. As such, not all the pages may work.
The Grand Comics Database (GCD)
:: ✠ Other DC Comics Sites
Adam Arnold's Vanishing Point -- DC's time heroes are some of my faves, and it was very cool to find this site tucked away behind many Google searches! It's a little wonky to navigate, though the webmaster himself says that it's due to their archival nature rather than an updated, living site. So, mind the quirks!
DC in the 80s: the webzine for DC comics fans from the 80s -- as it says on the tin, a webzine dedicated to all things DC Comics from that halcyon era of the 1980s! They got a cool-lookin' actual printed zine going!
Elseworlds.net - The Unofficial Elseworlds Homepage -- another "says it on the tin" website, this time for DC's alternate timeline: Elseworlds! I place this here more for a journey through old web, since the news section is the only part that seems to work. The database is a cool function, but doesn't seem to work, no matter what I do. That, or I'm using it wrong, so who knows. Personally, I think if this site gets updated again, it would be a boon for everyone.
DC FANZINE -- "Since the end of August 1996 production of the DC FANZINE began. It now features columns, articles, interviews all about DC Comics, and a Comic Book Links page (for any comic related page) all by the wonderful staff." I thought it was best to just copy/paste that first line from their About page. As you may tell by the URL, this is an archived copy of their original Geocities page (RIP Geocities.) So anything outside, like their Wizard World forums, are non-existent at this rate. But this is a cool thing to check out, and I hope to be able to link in other sections whatever Hans stuff they may have!
DC Cosmic Teams! -- despite the name of the site, DC Cosmic Teams appears to cover ALL teams from the DC repertoire. It's been around 1993, so I suspect that originally it was about all the actual cosmic or cosmic-adjacent teams (there's a lot involving the Legion of Superheroes!) before it expanded to all teams (Easy Company's on there!) It also has a section for obscure characters or teams. Pretty neat site, frankly! Easy to spend an entire day on there, given its in-depth write-up and source linking.
The Quality Companion Companion -- "This blog appends my work on the Quality Companion book. Here you'll find additional research and articles, things that didn't make the cut, and more!" Enough said, I suppose. Check out the book here!
Helena Wayne Huntress -- I should have had this site on here since the beginning. I've known about it for years, I just...completely forgot! As it says on the tin, a site dedicated to Pre-Crisis Huntress, though the webmistress also delves into Helena Bertinelli once in a while. The site hasn't been updated since October 2021 but the related podcast is still chugging along!
BOOSTERRIFIC -- Much like the site above, I should have had this one linked ages ago, because I also knew about it for many years. The JLI is one of my favorite teams ever and Booster's presence is part of that. This was actually one of the sites I analyzed as a basis for this site! We both are deranged about our favorite underrated character, after all, and it's a great dense source, organized nicely. ^_^
HAWKWORLD -- a website dedicated to everything Hawkman and Hawkgirl! A little hard to navigate because there's just so much and the way this Wordpress setup seems to work, it may be a theme that works better on mobile. (I had an easier time navigating on my phone, is my evidence.) But worth your time if you're interested in the two heroes!
Supergirl: the Life and Times of Kara Zor-El -- a site dedicated to the Supergirl of the Pre-Crisis era. I love the organization behind each era and interpretation of the character, and you can tell it's written by someone who holds the character close to their heart. The entire writing on the site almost sounds more like from the 1990s than from nowadays. (Then again, I have no idea when this was made, there's no real clear indicia. True anonymity?!)
Supergirl: Maid of Might -- another Supergirl site, this time much more fancy-looking, and dedicated to all the versions of the character from the comics, right up to the New 52 reboot. (Though some of the galleries have stuff from post 2011?) This site is absolutely dense as HECK, and has oodles of images and info. The site has not been updated since 2020, however.
The Hourman: "Man of the Hour" website! -- you ever just see sites for obscure characters and be double sad that it's no longer updated but also apparently lasted for barely a year? Yeah, that's this site. But that's also how it goes; suddenly time goes away from you...Yes, I said that on purpose. Anyway, seems to have fun stuff. You have to scroll down on the left sidebar to get the rest of the links--I almost got spooked that this site had less stuff than it did! I think two cool things are the two interviews of Rags Morales and Tom Peyer near the end!
Young Justice: The Hangout -- I enver got into Young Justice anything, so I can't say much about this site. A lot of its links are plain dead and gone, bringing you back to either the Yahoo site or Lycos (now there's a name I haven't heard in a long time), which is a shame because those links were actually some of the good stuff, like a bunch of interviews of comic creators. That said, the biography pages for the characters are intact and look really good--and I'm honestly tickled by pen pal-esque section where you have to hover it with the mouse to be able to see the text...I too remember the bad color choices for web design...Seeing ICQ on there is pretty bittersweet, given the recent news about the program (though I never used it as a MSN gal), but it's also a sign of how much we were willing to connect and were truly innocent about wanting to communicate with each other. I don't think you can set up a page like this nowadays, much less with a link to folks' fansites.
