Hal Jordan

Character » Hal Jordan appears in 2572 issues.

Deemed worthy, Hal Jordan was chosen to be the Green Lantern of Sector 2814 by the dying alien Green Lantern, Abin Sur. In the ensuing years Hal established an impressive record of heroism throughout the known universe and is widely considered the greatest Green Lantern ever.

What's with excuses when he punched Batman?

Ok he's one of the best martial artists dectives and non powered super hero in the DC Universe but that makes him far from as untouchable. I can't stand people giving excuses saying this was bad fan fiction.

Um not exactly seeing as Batman was being a @$$ throught most of the miniseries that got what he deserved.

Let me add in what Stewart said when he stood up to him was true if you are not afraid of Batman and not buying he's nothing more than man.

He had the ignorance to think he was going to contain Jordan when he has the most powerful weapon in the universe which isn't running out anytime soon.

Its not so much that, its the fact that the creator all but admitted he was a Batman hater. The whole mini was filled with Batman getting punked by damn near every GL in the Universe. It was pay back time for Batman's famous jaw jacking of Guy Gardner. If Hal took of the ring he'd get his ass whooped. 90% of all GL's are useless without their rings.

I think some people just use that as reasons why we should hate Hal, he never should of been made, someone should kill him, yada yada yada.

And Hal is one of the 10% that aren't useless without their Rings.

yeah he did deserve it, and i love batman. he was being an ass, and that IS how batman would have been. It wasnt just the writer expressing hatred.

What do you mean how Batman would have been?

Besides Stewart, Jordan, I didn't see Kilowog punking him, along with Rayner, and Gardner unless you count you see that one punch line as kind of a post mocking rubbing in Bats face before going into battle.

They mean that's how he would have acted.

basically, and sorry to trivialize this, but who cares?

it's Batman being punched... it's not as if it hasn't happened before, Batman isn't perfect, no matter what Batman fanboy's would like you to believe...

Batman has been sucker punched plenty of times before by people with less training than Hal, so why do people fixate on this one fight?

it's just another punch, it's not like Batman has never been hit, kicked, shot, broken or whatever before

To sum this all up, it's really not that serious... Batman getting sucker-punched is not that big of a deal.

Ya know I always wondered why the GL ring didnt choose Batman instead of Hal.

Batman with a yellow ring could beat Hal with his ring.  I agree I dont think Hal John or Guy can hang with Bruce with out their rings.

If you want bad writing it's Batman defeating Circe. Correction It's atrocious writing because DC has gone overboard with Bats winning.

NO! Not in this case. There was nothing bad bout it and Bats, as much as I love him, had it comming to him.
