Hal Jordan Appreciation

[Johnny]

I gotta disagree, Johnny. Besides the spiked hair, the overly dark color of it throws me off. I keep thinking this is the son of Hal & Carol from another timeline.

I get it. The design does feel a little off, which is why I find it interesting I guess. Besides the mask kind of resembles the Parallax mask.

now this awesome



can't wait for Hal to go up against Zod.

Well this is certainly a good example they don't rely just on the emotional spectrum. After Hal and Supes, the next arc is supposed to be about the Controllers, then we get Zod, which probably also means the boys are back in 2814 again to fight him. Not bad.

Moving away from the ES is a great thing, imo. I think only Geoff knew how to milk that cow.

"Why do you say these things, when you know I will kill you for it?"
Yep, I'm ready for Zod.

Cartoons and video games have made pretty good use out of them, and we would've never gotten a lot of the stuff Kyle and Guy did in the New 52 without it.

The synopsis for that storyline seems pretty cool

After a recent battle with Superman in ACTION COMICS, General Zod recovers as he takes control of a small, undeveloped world. When Hal Jordan investigates, it sets the course for a confrontation between the Kryptonian warrior and the Corps’ bravest and brightest Lanterns.

Rafa's gone almost photorealistic.

Terrance Stamp is the man.

You are right. I should have been more clear (which I fail at). I meant in the post-Johns main GL book.

I just love the "no f's given" body language from Hal.

[Johnny]

I always thought Van Sciver loved to have Hal strike those superhero poses, but Sandoval is even going further. lol He just loves to have Hal strike that "kneel in space" pose. I guess it also makes sense here when Zod is involved.

[Anthony Shaw]

For me, Hal having a melodramatic pose is a must.

One can only do a pose focusing on his ring hand so many times.

Check out the Gil Kane covers; those are just awesome.

Hmm... Hal investigates and it will lead to a confrontation with the "Lanterns" plural.... makes me think Hal doesn't fare too well in that first meeting with Zod...

It's like Hal and Clark traded Big Bads for schnitz and giggles... I like it! I wonder if Hal will have to go to earth again to debrief Superman after the Zod encounter (still not thrilled with the "fake Super-Lax" this month....)

"Melodramatic" is totally the right expression.
