Notes
- Hath-Set was created by Gardner Fox and Dennis Neville where he made his first appearance in Flash Comics v1 #1 (January, 1940).
In other media
Television
- In Justice League Unlimited, Hath-Set appeared as an antagonist in the DC Animated Universe episode "Ancient History" where he was voiced by actor Hector Elizondo. He was only shown in flashbacks to Ancient Egypt where he served as a human advisor to King Katar Hol who was a Thanagarian lawman that was stranded on Earth long ago with his love Chay-Ara. The priest later spied on the Queen Chay-Ara having an affair with the human General Bashari with Hath-Set secretly informing Katar Hol. Hath-Set was shown to be fiercely loyal to the king to the point that he misinterpreted his command leading to the deaths of Katar Hol, Chay-Aya and Bashari which was an act he came to deeply regret.
- In the Arrowverse, Hath-Set's name and backstory was partially merged with that of Vandal Savage in the shared setting.
- In Arrow, it was revealed that in Ancient Egypt that Vandal Savage was known as Hath-Set who was an advisor to the Pharaoh.
- In Legends of Tomorrow, Kendra Saunders sometimes referred to Vandal Savage as Hath-Set.
