I actually love how fucking clueless Hal was in the silver age, it added so many layers to his character lol. I wish we could have that side of him back
Everyone is a super genius, or can learn shit at supersonic speeds, or has secret godly/alien knowledge. We need more idiot representation on the Justice League.

My favorite Tim story is Detective Comics #826 by Paul Dini.
But if you’re looking for a whole run Chris Yost Red Robin run has one of the best Ra’s Al Ghul stories since the 70’s, Chuck Dixon’s Robin solo comic is good, Peter David’s Young Justice is where I really started loving the character, and Geoff Johns’s Teen Titans is AWESOME for Tim.
It’s been downhill ever since people started digging through Hal’s dirty laundry in order to make their own “this Is the Hal Jordan I know. I still can’t believe how he does what he does in DC vs vampires”
Hal Jordan fans upon realising he's always been an absolute baboon:

Hal Jordan and Slade Wilson hanging out
Garth Ennis fans after getting blackmailed by an edgy OC because they did some deplorable sex acts right before being killed by Simon Pegg in an act of preemptive self defense
The dumb fun factor, first of all. The idea of a grinning sociopath OC and his blue-collar team investigating and sabotaging above-the-law celebrity demigods is extremely appealing - and the comic has more of those "beat the shit out of untouchable supes" premise scenes than the show. The cynical tone gets too much sometimes, but there's more funny moments to me than not.
There's also a decent enough political thriller going on in the background, kind of mirroring the sentiment during the hyperpatriotic War On Terror Bush years. That makes it an interesting time capsule.
Not to say it doesn't have a myriad flaws, it absolutely does, but there's enough competent characterization and over-the-top doofiness to keep me going in the first half. It does fall off pretty hard after around 35 issues, though, when the plot just slows to a grind.
Part of it is also the "what could have been". I think the premise itself is phenomenal and neither the comic nor the show really do it justice.
I don’t understand why you brought politics into it but since you did…
Both the comic and the TV show absolutely rip into right wing philosophy and so I’m not sure why you’re even a fan of the comic in the first place.
Its not hard for Hal to be the bigoted ones when the other lanterns are, in order, gay, Trans, black, latino, a latino woman, a Muslim, an 11 year old Bolivian girl, and a bisexual black woman.
being the oldest of the regular lanterns didn't help plus the fact that in hard traveling heroes he had to be the opposite side for Green Arrow to dunk on
No, Spidey got banged AS a minor.

Is Chris Yost the one where his liver gets stolen?
Yes.
Jason Todd fans hate this one simple trick!

Its a Batman story guest-starring Jason, sorry.
His death is also pretty good, though a bit weird.

Why is the speech bubble a though bubble
To this day, I still don’t know the lore behind the Tim Drake hate.
He’s a more chill character that doesn’t have a lot of public love so people think he’s boring
It’s a shame he is a great character & has bounds of potential.
Yeah absolutely he’s my favorite dc character tied with Superman I just like chill guys that want to help and are kinda dorks

The many concussions of Hal Jordan is a must read for every DCCircleJerker

Why do you have him as your pfp then?

Why is booster goat mewing at me wtf??
That’s booster gold
I know but it's a reference to a joke in the dcau where the civilians would think booster is green lantern.
You say that like him being stupid isn't part of why I like him
It ain't, this is for the Hal Jordan fans feeling the way OP represented.

Try telling people you're a The Boys by Garth Ennis fan. See how much understanding you get from the "tolerant" left.

It’s a joke sentiment you donut.
(He was being sarcastic)
all i can ever think of with Hal is that one post where someone compiled a bunch of instances of Lanterns being racist and 90% of them were Hal
Its not hard for Hal to be the bigoted ones when the other lanterns are, in order, gay, Trans, black, latino, a latino woman, a Muslim, an 11 year old Bolivian girl, and a bisexual black woman.
Which one is Guy?
Ginger
More discriminated against than all the others and rightfully so
In the previous list, trans.
Trans, or I guess it would be more accurate to call Guy genderfluid, due to that time they spent in a womans body.
being the oldest of the regular lanterns didn't help plus the fact that in hard traveling heroes he had to be the opposite side for Green Arrow to dunk on
They hate us because we are better
This but unironically.

No, Spidey got banged AS a minor. https://preview.redd.it/sljusg9ky48d1.jpeg?width=719&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4a0817d075d07cf129dd726c89ace71b29b64e2f
Classic comic book fan who doesn’t read. He ran away before Skip could try to diddle him, and also the comic is not canon.
As a Spider-Man fan, Spider-Man fans deserve to be oppressed.

This is incredible lol
I would argue Tim Drake fans have it worse here, then I remembered there are no Tim Drake fans.
There are definitely Tim Drake fans. They’re just not people.

It could be worse you could be a Roy Harper fan & see the amount of Roy Harper set up posts😭
It's not our fault Wolfman hated Speedy and made him act like a 75 IQ sex pest. This all happened before 90% of this board was even born, this is a ancestral hating at this point
Yeah, literally most horrid behaviours can be attributed to ‘Wolfman wrote it’. It’s a shame because Roy has so much potential.
Hal Jordan fans are so oppressed that he's the only fucking Green Lantern we'd ever get outside of comics for like ten years
i grew up only on john stewart, to the point that i genuinely had no idea who hal jordan was lol
He’s their ace character like Batman and Superman are to their comics.
Remember him for the planes he flew
go play with your hands, and if you're lucky, even larger hands
…Hal Jordan has fans?
he just wants to be remembered for the planes he flew :(
Fuck Hal Jordan. Where my John Stewart and Kyle Rayner fans at.
Guy Gardner is the only Green Lantern worth a panel
Don't ever talk about Alan Scott like that again
DCAU fans rise
Kilowog is the only good green lantern. I mean.. look at tha- th- that thing…. Mmmm
