Hal Jordan: Green Lantern Appreciation 2019

[Johnny]

I haven"t seen the entire list yet. But it's cool Hal placed 4th.

Has Harley qppeared already? I just assumed she was on 3rd.

Yeah she was #20. John was #45, Guy #42, Sinestro #38, Kyle #27.

The other alien Lanterns may not have gotten much to do in this run, but they all looked cool .

Liam sure knows how to draw Hal's hair.

PS: This sounds fun:

"These are new Guardians with very different ideas of what’s right and wrong. Instead of Hal butting heads with these geriatric space dudes that he always had problems with, where he was the young cocky guy and they were the old heads, suddenly we have Young Guardians. It’s also having a little bit of fun with this ‘ok boomer’ thing.”

Just read this. Was really really good.

The characters were written so well. Lobo, Sinestro, Mister Miracle.

A definite recommend to anyone.

Thanks for the link, Johnny! I particularly like this part
-- Sharp adds, “in a way it’s not that Hal Jordan is a superhero amongst humans, he’s a superhero amongst Green Lanterns. Whether he’s our favorite Green Lantern or not, it’s established in the tomes of Green Lantern lore that he’s the greatest Green Lantern of all time. You go to the future, they’re still talking about Hal Jordan. We’re in the midst of telling the story of the greatest Green Lantern of them all. That’s amazing, to show what that means.”

Only on the Hal appreciation page would I re-post that quotation.

Also looking at that last sequence .... Hal isn't going to bed a Guardian is he? .... is he?

[Johnny]

You're very welcome. I got a huge kick out of this. And as far as potentially bedding the Guardian goes... at this point is there anything that can't be expected from Hal. lol

I really loved this quote too:

“The thing I like most about Hal is something that people in comics generally dislike: He’s been around for so long and he’s super competent,” Morrison says. “When it comes to superheroes I love characters like Batman and Hal who have been around so long, the only way they could still be alive would be if they were the most hyper-competent men on the planet. Hal gets things done, he thinks fast on his feet, he’s been around the block a few times. I love to watch that guy going about his work. Rather than explore the frailties and flaws, what I love about superheroes like Batman or Hal Jordan is the fact that they have almost destroyed all their human flaws and they’ve become different than a normal human being. That fascinates me and gets them closer to the idea of a ‘superhero’ than trying to make them like us.”

I know folks get easier triggered nowadays, but the quote was always true with Hal.

It was only PIS, general bad writing, and the cheating technique of "telling without showing" that made things tough for Hal.
