What's the difference between Satan and Lucifer? There the
same entity. Do you perhaps mean St. Michael and Lucifer (or
Satan if you prefer)?
Parker has commented at least once that I know of that Hawk
WAS intended to be the "dark side" of Spenser, and that
making the character African-American was part of that
metaphor.
