Rob I don't know if you'll ever see this, but I've been watching your videos for yearrs it's what got me into comics. Watching your channel evolve over the years have been so cool. And I like to come back to these videos sometimes not just to hear the stories again, but to get some of that vintage comics explained gold. This is one of the very few channels I can get nostalgia vibes from and that's fucking cool

Believe it or not, Geoff Johns actually ruined Hal Jordan by retconing him to be possessed by Parallax during "Emerald Twilight". That storyline turned me into a DC fan and a lifetime fan of Hal Jordan. His dynamic of being so broken by the guilt and loss over Coast City's destruction made him a very realistic, sympathetic and interesting character. Johns is a great writer but he ruined a few characters. Most notably Hal Jordan, Conner Kent/Superboy and Bart Allen.

GSSAGE7 Yeah for one episode. Then he had a few cameos in the Justice League cartoon and that was it.

Even Guy Gardner gets more love in other media than Kyle.

Before Geoff Johns and his giant fear bug Hal Fans were saying it was because Hal was tricked into wearing a ring of a villian named Lord Malvolio. Lord Malvolio was able to create illusions like a yellow space station which his ring could effect and tricked Hal into donning Lord Malvolio's ring and that was the ring (NOT a genuine GL ring) that Hal was wearing when he went nuts.
