HOTW- Birdman

From Wiki- Birdman (voiced by Keith Andes) is an ordinary human who has been endowed by the sun god Ra with the ability to shoot solar rays from his fists and project quasi-solid "solar shields" to defend himself against attacks (Birdman's origin is only vaguely, and only briefly, hinted at during the series. His real name is there given as Raymond "Ray" Randall). After he had acquired his avian—and other—powers, he was recruited by a top-secret government agency, Inter-Nation Security, and now works full-time fighting crime, assisted by his pet eagle, who responds to the name of Avenger.Birdman is the squarest hero of them all.  I never saw him growing up, never knew who he was at all (this was also true for the Galaxy Trio).  I like his look and his powers, and having a sidekick that is an eagle.  His personality wasn't much, though.  The show was popular, though.  Ray has grown on me over time, though I like his comic book version much better.
