Well EXCUSE ME!
Dwayne is starting to get all technical about some of my scans...saying that not ALL of them show Hal getting whammed in the noggin. I suppose that a few are open to...interpretation. We can't ALL spend our time getting clonked with rocks and gun butts after all. Hal just happens to be attacked by a very WIDE RANGE of weaponry, not to mention body parts.
He also seems to spend a lot of time getting thwacked by his friends and colleagues.
Oh Justice League, Europe, you weren't quite as funny as the JLI, but you certainly had your moments.
So...what do you, my beloved (as well as handsome and beautiful) readers think? Has Dwayne won? If you think so, then I will graciously throw in the towel. If not, then he MUST KNEEL BEFORE ME AND KISS MY PINK HIGH-HEELED BOOT!
Oops. Sorry about that, I seemed to be channeling the Star Sapphires for a moment.

Certainly not! YOUR SCANS ARE FULL OF HAL BEING WHACKED IN AMUSING WAYS! DON'T GIVE UP NOW!
Your bet was about who got hit in the cranium more often, that doesn't necessarily restrict itself to head-damage only. However, you did post that unambiguously involves no head trauma is when Larfleeze cut Hal's arm off, but that was over three weeks ago, and I think the statute of limitations on calling victory has passed for that little snafu.
HOWEVER I feel that as the image does not involve Hal suffering cranial damage, we require two head trauma images in one day in order to restore parity. Otherwise, I must rule in favour of the plantiff.
Thank you, Judge Wopner.
I say that there IS no statute of limitations for this crime.
I think you should declare it a tie, and both blog as the other person for a week.
There are TONS more images of Hal getting whacked in the head. You have the disadvantage of having a busted scanner, so you're having to rely on old archived images. I assume Dwayne doesn't have that disadvantage and is scanning whatever he wants. You're doing VERY well considering the circumstances!
He hasn't won, your scans are great! keep at it!
Sally I can personally attest to the stack of books dad has lined up for this contest. I think you should just strap on your sixguns and affect a western drawl, because Showcase Present: Green Lantern be damned, "Jonah Hex's Butt Forever" is gonna happen sooner or later.

I have reviewed all the facts in this case, and have made a decision, as a self-appointed judge whom no one has ever heard of before without authority or reason in this case. Now, the complaint I initially ruled against the defendant was posted on May 30th. http://green-lantern-butts-forever.blogspot.com/2009/05/green-lantern-41.html
As all can see, Hal Jordan is suffering nothing related a cranial injury, and I rule the defendant was in breach of the contest.
However! Upon further review of the plaintiffs image, I came across his round 5 image posted on May 29th, one day before the defendant's breach of contract at http://jonahhex.blogspot.com/2009/05/hal-jonah-head-to-head-round-5.html
Upon hunting for, purchasing, and reading the issue in question, I discovered that the "Jonah Hex" getting hit in the head in that image is, in fact, an impersonator being hit by the real Jonah Hex! Meaning that the defendant attempted to submit an image to this contest in which Jonah Hex received no injury at all!
As both of you have failed to live up to the terms of the contract, I rule that as the plaintiff did, in fact, breach the contract first, it is up to the defendant whether or not this contest continues, or else she can claim victory in this matter.
Bzzthhhppppppppp!
(My interpretation of a raspberry)
Raspberries are not recognised as a declaration of victory, nor as a signal of continuance. Don't make me rule you out of order!
Actually, that was aimed at Dwayne.
You do make a valid point however, your Honor.
WAAAIIITTTT. I contend that it was still "Jonah Hex" getting the punch. as opposed to Sally's "Hal's arm, oops, I meant head gets hurt". I also posted scans of a Jonah Hex from an alternate earth, is that a violation as well?
Anyway, I will abide by a majority vote of impartial readers.
Sorry, but it was very clearly The Chameleon, who was impersonating Jonah Hex to kill a bunch of people who scorned him, being punched by Jonah Hex because he doesn't like to be framed for murders he didn't commit.
In the very next panel he even attempts to unmask the impostor to reveal these shenanigans to his newest sweetheart with a cry of "Now tuh pull off some'a this blasted theater makeup an' see who he--"
Of course he doesn't finish because in the next very next panel, his newest sweetheart knocks him out from behind. With a blow to the head.
I guess that's what I get for trying to be cute. Shoulda went with the dishpan smash.
Cuteness is not a recognised legal defense, as ruled in people v lolcat.
My word though Jonah Hex has a lot of head trauma. In that issue alone there are five clear head wounds spread among four people, with the distinguished Mr. Hex catching two of them.
