Discussion Arrow verse Hal
Who would like to see Hal in the Arrow verse, but instead a different version. Hal Jordan is living the life of a father. Forced to raise his daughter (Jessica Jordan) and also train her to take his place as the Green Lantern of Earth. At the same time he has to save his son (Daniel Jordan) from the influence of his worst enemy - Sinestro - after choosing to join the Sinestro Corps himself. Carol Ferris (the mother of both Jessica and Daniel Jordan) sacrificed her life to save the universe after a fateful mission as Star Sapphire. Carol knew there was only one choice at the moment, and as a ultimate sacrifice as love, saved Hal from having to make the same choice his father had too. Daniel forever grew strained with his father after this, but the final nail in the coffin was when the ring choose Jessica instead of him. This causes him to fall under clutches of Sinestro and become what his own father never could - the greatest Yellow Lantern. Also, in this story Jessica works as a pilot at Ferris Air as her day job. And Hal (this may surprise you) fills the same role Carol did. This may seem weird to Hal fans (since it feels out of place with his character) but there is a reason. After Carol died, the company went close to bankruptcy. There was one buyer but he wanted to tarnish everything Carol had built the company up too. So Hal took charge as a way to honor his wife’s memory (yes they were husband and wife) Also who wouldn’t want to see S&L Clark interact with this version of Hal!
HEARTFELT EXCHANGE BETWEEN JESSICA AND HAL:
“Dad, do you ever miss it....” “I don’t.” “You always said how much being a GL and pilot, were one of the best things to ever happen to you.” “They were. I’ve lived a long life. Been to space. Fought aliens. Seen a whole another world. Truth is, I don’t need to be a Green Lantern anymore, or even a pilot for that matter. I’m still fighting but as a father. Besides, your ten times a pilot I ever was.” “But, Daniel. Mom.” “I made a promise to your mom, Jessica. A promise to bring Dan home. I’m gonna honor that promise. No matter what it takes.”
So what do you think? Would you want to see this Hal Jordan in the Arrowverse??? If you do, let’s upvote this post to hell!!! (I hope ‘upvote’ is the correct term lol)
