Jordan tried to change the Spectre's mission from vengeance to redemption, but to no avail: Parallax still remained bound to his soul, and the Eldritch Abomination tried to steal the Spectre's power for itself. Jordan's own nobility shone through, however, when Earth's Sun was being devoured by a Sun-Eater, and he gave his life to save his homeworld.Īfter his death, Jordan's soul was offered a chance at redemption: he was bound to the near-omnipotent Spectre, the Spirit of Vengeance. Killing all the Guardians save one, Jordan/Parallax went on a rampage across the universe. The destruction of his native Coast City at the hands of Mongul and Cyborg-Superman was enough to push him over the edge-Jordan rushed to Oa, killed every Lantern that got in his way, and entered the Central Power Battery to gain the power necessary to rebuild Coast City, but was instead possessed by Parallax. Hal's halcyon days ended when the fear entity Parallax, trapped within the Central Power Battery, reached out its psychic tendrils to taint his mind. Coincidentally, in Post-Crisis continuity, Alan Scott wielded this unnamed Chinese man's ring. Earth's original Green Lantern originated in China, and was recruited in 814 B.C. Sinestro, his traitorous former mentor, became his arch nemesis.ĭespite common belief, Hal Jordan was not the first human being ever recruited into the Green Lantern Corps. Training under both Kilowog and Sinestro, Jordan went on to become a famed hero on Earth and beyond, helped found the Justice League of America, and rose to the top of the Green Lantern Corps. Abin bequeathed his ring and power battery to Jordan before dying. Hal was a California test pilot who was summoned to the site where Green Lantern Abin Sur had crashed. He was created by the late John Broome and the late Gil Kane, and first appeared in Showcase #22 in October of 1959. He is also a friends with fellow Green Lanterns, Kilowog, John Stewart, Kyle Rayner, and Guy Gardner. Hal is best friends with Barry Allen, the second iteration of The Flash, and a close friend to the Green Arrow. He is the overall main protagonist of the Green Lantern franchise and a major character in the Justice League comics, and the most famous Green Lantern of all the time.
He was created in the Silver Age of Comic Books by John Broome and Gil Kane, and made his first appearance in Showcase #22 to replace Alan Scott, the original and first human Green Lantern. A test pilot, Hal was granted a Green Lantern ring by a dying Abin Sur, and was inducted into the Green Lantern Corps to protect the Earth sector, 2814. He is the second human to adopt the Green Lantern moniker after the original, Alan Scott, and was succeeded by several human heroes.
He is believed to be the first human to join the Green Lantern Corps (which is later debunked), as well as a founding member of the Justice League. Harold "Hal" Jordan, also known as Green Lantern, is a fictional character and superhero from DC comics and universe, appearing as the main protagonist of the titular franchise, and a major character in the Justice League franchise. When I was first recruited, I was told, "Do not challenge those more powerful than you." Funny Stuff. but like, perhaps, the Knights of our earlier days, I swear to give everything this ring and I have to keep alive in my time - so that life in future days may achieve the grandeur we have been privileged to know in the Guardians of the Universe! That will probably be long after we're all gone. But we got here seven of us now - to protect this little planet - and not only because it's right and just to protect life anywhere - but because the future of the now-unified universe is evolving here now! We don't know if the Guardians are ever coming back, but we have their promise that beings like them, and the female Zamarons, will arise on Earth. Some of us had a comparatively easy time of it - some of us didn't. Listen, we've all come through a lot in our different ways. ~ Hal Jordan saying the famous Green Lantern Corps' oath. Let those who worship evil's might, beware my power, Green Lantern's light! In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight.
