Fel Andar was a Thanagarian sleeper agent who had been living on Earth for years and was called to active duty to learn all he could about the planet’s offensive capabilities as Carter Hall Jr., a previously unknown son of the Golden Age Hawkman from the Justice Society of America. This fact was impossible to corroborate because the Hawks and the rest of the Society were trapped in Limbo at the time, fighting the demon Surtur to stall the ancient Norse end of the world called Ragnarok. At the same time, Thanagar was conspiring with various other alien races to plan an invasion of the Earth.

Andar took a human wife named Sharon Parker and they had a child named Ch’al or Charley Parker on Earth. Fel brainwashed his wife into believing that she was Sharon Hall, aka Hawkwoman. The pair joined the Justice League International for a brief period and their son became the occasional Teen Titan West member, the Golden Eagle.

Sharon discovered Fel’s true identity and revealed it to the Martian Manhunter. Andar murdered her and fled to Thanagar. There, he was sentenced to life in prison for his failure. Having renounced his past and now a man of peace, he tried to reconcile with his son during the Rann-Thanagar War but was killed by the Tamaran warrior Blackfire.
