I like that. I also wonder if there’s a way to tie in some of the gender identity stuff in a similar way.
I’ve always found Hal to be incredibly boring, but this makes me want to actually read his books.
Yeah, I also thought he was super boring until (no joke) I read a fanfic about him going to Clark Kent’s Passover Seder and arguing with Clark for like an hour about Hebrew grammar and I was like. Huh.
Thank you. I didn’t know this was a thing. I have to know what’s going on here!
I love the idea of Hal Jordan making very little effort to physically transition because
- He feels like a man most of the time, like 70%
- They are old, they are lazy, they do not have time for that
Just rolls into the watchtower looking the way she does every day like “what’s up fellas it’s a she/her day,” and everyone’s like “Cool, hey guys, Hal’s a lady today.”
Simon Baz and Hal Jordan having a little solidarity moment because Jews and Arabs are cousins (we are besties, we are bros, we both like stuffed cabbage rolls).
Simon, walking into the room: Salaam
Hal, not looking up: Shalom
And it’s just a nice, chill time
I’m Sorry but I have recently been informed John Constantine is also King Shark’s ex
Do you think there’s a game in the DC universe that’s just “three degrees of hooking up with John Constantine.”
Does John walk into rooms like “Oh #$%* I’d had one-night stands with half of these people.”
More importantly do I need to read some JC stories for no other reason that being starved for angsty bisexual superheroes??
Most definitely.
“Hal is the worst Lantern bc he can be stupid and clumsy and he’s reckless.”
“Ah, but you see, you have uncovered the very source of my affection.”
