I confess that, since I was never a GL fan, I haven't read the books in years. My only real time of reading GL was back when Hal was more of a straight out whitebread hero. I didn't catch the whole fall from grace, when he turned nuts and killed his GL fellows, and only sporadically followed the saga after that, when he became a cosmic being, redeemed himself, and finally regained humanity. A hint of what you're talking about can be found in one book I read where Batman was giving the recently returned Hal a problem. Hal was having none of Bat's judgemental nature, was more irritated than intimidated, and ultimately ending up slugging Batman. The other Leaguers were impressed that Hal had the nerve to do that, and that he was able to catch Batman unawares. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Omari Confer" To: scifino...@yahoogro ups.com Sent: Monday, July 27, 2009 12:29:36 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: [scifinoir2] Google's Cool DC Comics Logo I think John Stewart in the cartoon is representing all GL in the cartoons; thus he is part Hal part Kyle....no Guy thank god. I accept John's role in the GL panthenon due to the fact that he might be the second best Lantern ever...Kyle might have him beat. Keith, I honestly think that having a JLA without Hal Jordan is wrong.....He is basically a suicidal fighter pilot given ultimate power, and he let it drive him insane. This alone makes him the perfect hero- Sacrificial and flawed. Maybe not the perfect DC hero (because he has flaws) but the perfect Marvel hero. c w m On Sun, Jul 26, 2009 at 10:52 PM, Keith Johnson wrote: Good luck. In the comics, at least, it appears Hal Jordan is the pre-eminent Lantern once again. I read the first issue of this "Black Lantern" saga, and there's a scene where Hal appears in the rebuilt Coast Ciy, flanked by John Stewart, Kyle Rayner, and Guy Gardner. Hal called them his "wingmen". And, never having been a faithful GL fan, i am struck by how much less tough and commanding John Stewart seems to be in the comic, compared to his portrayal in the Justice League cartoons. And that's saying something, since the cartoon GL had an extremely limited pallet of constructs he made with the Ring. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Street" To: scifino...@yahoogro ups.com Sent: Friday, July 24, 2009 8:17:05 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: [scifinoir2] Google's Cool DC Comics Logo I know I know...they could have thrown John Stewart up in there.
