During one such mission, after tracking [[Solomon Grundy]] and [[Aquaman]] to [[Dr. Fate]], she discovered Fate's connection to Thanagar. Along with Superman and Wonder Woman, Hawkgirl discovered that [[Ichthultu]], once worshiped on Thanagar as a god, had come to Earth. Fate, Superman, Wonder Woman, Grundy and Hawkgirl traveled to Ichthultu's world. Here, Hawkgirl developed an unlikely friendship with Grundy. The friendship would be short-lived, however. After Solomon Grundy successfully entered Ichthultu's bowels and killed a monster inside, he was rendered immobilized. Hawkgirl followed him and finished Grundy's job for him, killing Ichthultu with a strike from her magic-disrupting mace. Solomon Grundy died in her arms shortly afterwards. However, she couldn't understand why he was happy at the end, to which Aquaman replied that it was faith.<ref name="The Terror Beyond">Idem, "[[The Terror Beyond]]"</ref>

During her time with the League, Hawkgirl developed a deep relationship with fellow member [[John Stewart]], despite their constant bickering. During [[Joker]]'s bomb threat on Las Vegas, John rescued Hawkgirl and sacrificed himself in an explosion. His [[power ring]]'s aura protected him, but the shock stopped his heart. With her mace, Hawkgirl restarted it and brought him back to the Watchtower against Batman's orders. After giving John proper medical treatment, she agreed to stay with him overnight on the Watchtower to make sure he recuperated. John woke up and the two discussed their relationship. Hawkgirl was against it going any further, though John eventually brought her round to the idea. Hawkgirl's mask was finally removed, exposing her true face for the first time in the series. John and Shayera shared a kiss at the end. <ref name="Wild Cards II">Idem, "[[Wild Cards|Wild Cards, Part II]]"</ref>

[[File:Hrobetrayaljohn.jpg|thumb|Hawkgirl's revelation to [[John Stewart]].]]After a [[Gordanian Class-7 Cruiser|Gordanian vessel]] was shot down by the Thanagarians over Washington D.C., Hawkgirl's mission on Earth was complete. She had sent all of the data she had collected on Earth and the Justice League to the Thanagarians. It was determined that Earth would not be safe from a Gordanian attack and so construction began on a force field generator to protect the Earth, overseen by Thanagarian [[Paran Dul]]. Hawkgirl was then revealed to the entire planet as a spy. To make matters worse, especially for John Stewart, she revealed that she was engaged to the Thanagarians' commander, Hro Talak. These revelations created a rift between her and her teammates and caused significant damage to her relationship with John Stewart.

Hawkgirl was firm in her duty to Thanagar and believed that the Thanagarians were acting in Earth's best interests. [[File:Ltshayerahol.jpg|thumb|left|Lieutenant Shayera Hol.]]When the Justice League resisted the occupation of Earth, she chose duty to her homeworld over loyalty to her League mates. The League was captured using Shayera's report of their weaknesses against them. When only John Stewart remained standing, Shayera chose duty over love, and rendered John unconscious with her mace as he was trying to appeal to her emotions.<ref name="Starcrossed I" />

Within days of the League's escape, Shayera discovered the Thanagarians' true intentions. The device they were building was not a force field generator, but a [[Hyperspace Bypass Generator]]. The generator would create a wormhole in hyperspace, allowing the Thangarian armada to jump behind the Gordanians' defenses and attack their homeworld directly. This would destroy the Earth and everyone on it. Shayera stole this information and handed it directly to Bruce Wayne. She then returned John Stewart's [[power ring]]. Her betrayal was quickly discovered by Hro Talak's right-hand man, [[Kragger]], and she was imprisoned. Talak then realized that Shayera was not in love with him but with John.[[File:Shayerahrofight.jpg|thumb|right|Shayera Hol fights [[Hro Talak]].]] Shayera was offered the chance to be released and pardoned for her treason, if she admitted that she did not love John. Shayera refused. Commenting that if he truly loved her, then he'd spare the Earth. During Shayera's imprisonment, the League made their assault on the armada and their captured Watchtower. When Wonder Woman infiltrated the vessel, she bitterly released Shayera. Shayera picked up a Thanagarian warriors discarded mace and flew off to confront Hro Talak.
