Silly doesn't begin to describe this web series. The main character, a supposedly drunk guy, wears hawk wings and is called Hawk. He even refers to fornication as a merger that creates a hawk god. Plus, another character thinks he is Green Lantern. If you feel this series has an intelligence quotient that is beneath your ability to tolerate, feel free to use the labels on this site (see the cloud on the right) to find something else that does not insult your intelligence.
