Notes:

Two-Gun Kid #1-59 supposedly depicted the adventures of Clay Harder, a fictional Two-Gun Kid that Matt Hawk named himself after in assuming the identity, like how Barry Allen named himself after the then-fictional Flash, Jay Garrick. Matters are complicated by the fact that Hawk later retired under the assumed identity of Clay Harder, and suggestions that a real Clay Harder may have also existed in the Marvel West.

As a routine time traveler, Matt Hawk's fate is unknown. He was first depicted as dying shortly past his prime in Blaze of Glory #4. However, an incredibly aged Matt Hawk was also seen passing away in The Marvels Project #1 in 1938, fully aware that the Age of Heroes was about to begin.
