When I was growing up, I'd watch the Superfriends on TV. One of my favorite characters was Hal Jordan. While I never read comics as a child, I found new interest in reading them during the Death of Superman storyline. Once again, Hal Jordan played a big role in the storyline. I decided to pick up the book and happened to start right at the beginning of Emerald Twilight. I was horrified. Hal turned into a mass murderer, killing his trusted friends and stealing the power battery's power. While I liked his replacement, Kyle Rayner, I grew to understand the importance that Hal Jordan held in the GL mythos. Emerald Twilight was a travesty.
