    Agreed with all of this, I was interested at the start but it's all been a big nothingburger of a run since then, the art is great but I don't find anything interesting about either the...

    I think you're both right. Barry first says, "All is fair in love and war"...which is not a good look. He does say though to "pull back on the throttle on chasing her" - so I don't think he's...

    Rest in peace.

    Rest in peace.

    Yeah, I feel similarly, this issue didn't really do much for me and I've enjoyed the quieter moments in the previous issues. It just feels like there are no stakes.

    I enjoyed this one much more than the first though I agree it was a little too over the top in places. But Insomnia is a really lame and uninspiring villain so nice to see Hal make short work of him...

    Sort of a recurring theme with the character, he is different things to different people. For some of his friends, he's loyal and ride or die. Some find him cool, for others, he's reckless. For...

    That's my favourite take on Hal too, and yeah shame about Jones himself (blergh). I enjoy "The Road Back" but the difference between Morrison and Jones' takes on the later Broome stories is that...

    Great post, FWIW, I think volume 3 did start out strong and The Road Back sort of acknowledged the past while setting things in the right direction again. I think it began to steadily lose direction...

    Morrison's Hal was much more of a mix of Cool Hand Luke, the man with no name, and Justified's Raylan Givens than Kirk.



    Also wanted to echo this sentiment.

    Agreed.



    I can see it, he certainly looks the part, and I think he can skirt the line between being cocky and obnoxious, while also being heroic, and exuding a slight air of melancholy.

    Hi, if possible, could you please change my username to Mutatis_Mutandis? Thanks in advance.

    I have to say that with the exception of the Abin Sur sequence, the Knight Terrors issue didn't do much for me at all. Dragging up Martin's death at this point as a source of trauma for Hal feels...

    It's not spiritual in the sense of a religious calling but "spiritual" as in a sense of fulfilment, a sense of purpose and overcoming an alienation he otherwise feels (Barr spells this out in the...

    Really cool find! I like and agree with Barr's take that being a GL is more like a spiritual calling for Hal.

    Not pointless at all, I love nerding out over this stuff, haha. I knew Hal had the symbol ring during v2 but didn't realize it was for such a long time. Thanks a lot for compiling all this...

    Haha, I was not aware of that. I have always preferred the disk-shaped ring over the symbol one, I associate the disk-shaped ring with Hal more anyway.

    Neat reference to this classic Gil Kane cover (GL v2 166).

    Was just thinking of Johnny's excellent post here and even Hal's song of choice seems apt. :p

    Definitely my own personally preferred voice over the Maverick one but I quite like Adams' take on this, which, I feel, is also sufficiently nuanced (unlike Venditti's or the second half of the...

    I agree. The scenes with Hal talking to himself were some of my favourite and I'm hoping we'll get to continue with this more character-focused approach. And it's what you said - the fact that people...

    Found this snippet from a Morrison interview during the start of TGL season 2. It would be really cool to have the entire run collected as an omnibus with all the interviews Morrison gave on Hal as a...

    Fair point but I have zero faith in Berlanti regardless of whatever premise. When they say True Detective, I'm hoping that it's not just the premise but that the writing is also relatively on par...
