"My father cut the sky open."
Can a smarter anon explain the significance of this line to me
In Myths and legends being the son of a badass makes you badass. By calling his Dad the sky-cutter Hal is letting Motherbox know that's she's about to get taken out for a ride.

So basically Hal is just flirting with the motherbox.

Imagery of a fighter jet 'cutting' through the sky like a blade and 'opening' up the sky to Hal as a domain he'd one day inhabit rather than merely view from below?
Seems like a neat metaphor.
>>78221297
yes
>>78221297
Yes, and it worked
>>78221233
Yeah, I am too marvelling at King's command of the language after years of abuse by borderline illiterate fucks of mainline DC and Marvel. Hal there had more character than in the entire Johns run

Hal was pretty dumb as a kid so his dad explained his job in words a 5 year old could understand.

Isn't "I fly planes" easier for a five year old to understand than "I cut the sky open"?
>>78221297
yeah just like the slut he is

Damn it, anon. I didn't needed this

Only if you want your dumb kid to start asking why planes stay up and how you operate them.
Hal's dad liked to shut down curiosity before it could become time-consuming, and so couched all his explanations of the world to Hal in magical terms.

For the few minutes that he had god powers he had plenty of time to fuck the mother ring
>>78225237
>Mother Ring is quite taken by the dashing young Green Lantern
>"Mother Ring, can you erase yourself from existence?"
>"O-okay, Hal....."
>>78225338
I-it's okay, I'm sure she actually made a pocket dimension where she can have her own happy remnant of God Hal ;_;
