Returning to Midway City following an adventure with the Justice League of America, Hawkman stumbles into the middle of a fight for top secret information between the CIA, and the criminal organization known as CAW. Agreeing to help the CIA to catch the members of CAW before they can smuggle the stolen information out of the United States and sell it to a foreign power. They track down the CAW members to a secret base where Hawkman with the help of a female CIA agent manage to bust up the operation. They learn that the information is going to be smuggled out in a shipment of paintings on a plane bound to leave Midway City. Using the CIA credentials at his disposal, Hawkman and the CIA agent find the painting. CAW's plan involved hiding the formula in an "eye teaser" painting that is used to test for color blindness so that only someone who is color blind would be able to see the painting. Afterwards, Hawkman reveals the female CIA agent to be Hawkgirl in disguise. He finds out that she was asked to help when Hawkman was busy with the JLA, and her involvement involved taking on a secret identity as a CIA agent, and that when Hawkman joined on she couldn't help but see how much longer she could maintain the ruse before her husband could figure it out.
