I don't want to start anything, but considering who the new writer is it might be for the better. You can talk about being professional and all that, but if you don't get Hal then maybe you shouldn't try to build upon his mythos.
Speaking about Jessica, am I the only one who was a bit upset that they killed Power Ring back in, I think, Darkseid War? I felt like her being new Power Ring would have made her a bit more unique next to other 2153 Earth lanterns.
I get that, but he could have just left some members of the syndicate alive for other writers. More than Power Ring I was annoyed by Owlman dying. He screwed Nightwing and Dick never had an opportunity to get back at him. To me it felt like a huge wasted opportunity.
