green lantern

So this next superhero is one very dear to my heart, Hal Jordan. I came upon the great Green Lantern when I was young and lonely and his adventures have accompanied me as I went through my own adventures. I came upon the series when I was six years old and have been hooked ever since. Hal Jordan is only one of many to wear the Green Lantern ring of power, but to me he is the best.
   No man has ever worn the Green Lantern uniform better than Hal Jordan. Hal Jordan manages to perfectly exemplify the Green Lantern mantra of "No Fear." While Hal Jordan does have fear he never shows it to his foes. That being said, Hal Jordan has been through some pretty tough times. Hal Jordan went through a decade long blackout faze where he disappeared from comics all-together. He returned as the brain-child of Geoff Johns. Geoff Johns reinvented Hal after his dramatic death in the Final Night comic book arc. Hal returned without a ring and a severe drug addiction that he would have to overcome to earn back his spot on the corps. Once he returned to the corps he made what is known as the greatest comebacks of comic history. The peek of his success came with the 34 comic story arc Blackest Night. Hal Jordan may be running quickly back into obscurity but he is still making history as the longest and most beloved Green Lantern of all time.
    Many comic book fans either love or hate Hal due to his disregard of Batman's, "My way or the highway crap." Very few men would challenge the caped crusader and even fewer would win. To this day Batman and Hal do not get along, but they enjoy peaceful and calm relations or none at all if they can help it. Hal stands as the anti-dark knight. Superman even once touched on this with a short comment, calling Hal, "The man with no fear, the bright knight."
