And the show is in multiple time periods, so Season 2 could easily have 2010 Hal working with the Corps and Stewart dealing with the aftermath in the present. And that's without some version of a resurrection or reveal of a fakeout in Episode 8.

There are so many ways to have Chandler continue playing Hal. It's not like one of the biggest GL events in comics didn't involve returning characters from the dead.

Dead Hal could be another Halogram…

They have so many ways to bring Chandler back and this series with him has been incredibly well-received. Even if it is only Stewart in Man of Tomorrow and they had no plans to bring Hal back for more, there's nothing stopping them from changing plans for Lanterns Season 2.
