Hal Jordan: The Green Lantern Appreciation 2021

[silly]

Well then, I would like a second JLA team with Hal in it. Put Barry, Oliver, Dinah, Ray in and I would be contented.

Hal's rogues gallery. With Saint Walker and Indigo 1.

I liked those storylines, but that's not the best advertising...plus, Emerald Twilight was bad, so...

[Gaius]

Said it before but this always came off like a threat from a member of the Mob.

I personally feel we need two team books running simultaneously for the following: JLA, Avengers, & X-Men.

Those were some rough years. Crisis on Infinite Earths and Death in the Family signaled to DC that killing off big names meant big profits in the short term.

Hopefully they learned that it caused fans to quit comics in the long term.

They killed Ollie a year after but my Green Arrow 101 isn't worth a dime.....
I crumpled it up in a fit of rage, through it across the room and stopped on it....I'm surprised I didn't stop there, I quit comics for a few years after that, I had, had enough.

I quit shortly afterwards, as well. If your hobby isn't really delivering what you want from it, then that's a good time to take a break. Unfortunately, a lot of people who quit comics never came back.

That said, a lot of those people would have moved on anyways, or were only interested in comics because they thought their copy of Underwear Man #69 was going to be worth a bajillion dollars someday. But, both DC and Marvel have sure done a great job of driving away a lot of long-time customers with their various stunts over the years.

Hopefully the quick turn around of Wally West and Roy Harper is a sign that DC has figured out that killing off or hurting people's favourite characters isn't the best way of keeping your customers in the long run.

And although I believe that comics should be aimed at 12 to 21 age range, hopefully they've also figured out that comics are intergenerational and that a large base of comic fans never truly leaves.

I've never collected comics for the money, after the 70's they aren't worth much overall. As soon as everyone started bagging and boarding their comics...the gig was up.

The lineup at least was interesting.

Didn't James Robinson write that? I'm not fully familiar with his work, but I've heard he's had hits and misses at both DC and Marvel.
