Hal Jordan is a mass murdering psycho and no amount of retconning can change that.

Fuck off
when I started to have hallucinations and multiple personality problems, all which focused on a distinctly "serial killer" flavor of crazy, Hank Pym saved the fuck out of me mentally.
I kept reading old comics of his and how he always had some crazy problem and for the first time in my life I could imagine myself as a good person. It's like no matter what happened he kept trying to be a good person. He even stayed out of costume for a bit because he knew he was unstable.
To see someone like me in a comic and instead of them being a bad guy they were a good guy literally stopped me from trying to kill myself. I stopped feeling like a mistake and started living my life.
Spacebug did it not me.

Was there a series of these posters? One for each Corps?

Hi /k/.

Hey now, Star Sapphire gave you herpes. Render unto Caesar and all that jazz.
>>81718407
In Hal's defense it's not like he's gone to great lengths to clear that up with any of the characters he screwed up. So even though fearbug gave him the push, he seems to think that all the stuff he did was shit he actually thought about doing at some point.
anyone got more stories like this/ actual stories? Kind of inspiring
For me Superman has always been my favorite and whenever my inner demons come out/I want to do something morally wrong I think about Superman and what he would do. I end up doing the right thing majority of the time because of that.
he actually plays a big deal in my development
>be in highschool 10thgrade ish
>dont really have identity
>trying to learn what it means to be a man
>Get sucked into whole alpha beta thing for a bit, gentleman thing for a bit, cant find a middle ground
>start getting into comics and superman
>notice how superman always does the right thing and his own man
>his confidence is intrinsic, in his own self and not derived from something as silly as alphaness/girls/etc
>start coming out of my shell, being more nice to people, making more friends, hitting gym more often
>become a lot more social and whenever I'm feeling unconfidence/insecure/shy I think about superman and how he is someone I aspire to be
>begun oozing confidence because I in a demented way imagine I'm superman by emulating his kindness and integrity
>now in college and doing well (BESIDES DEBT)
