Falling Back on the Tried and True
I'm still sulking over not having Blackest Night:Tales of the Corps, so I don't really have anything witty or insightful to say today. Therefore, I'm falling back on my old tried and tested formula.
Oh yeah.
Hal getting smacked around. It never fails to put a smile on MY face anyway.

Sally - Sorry to hear you are having trouble securing Tales of the Corps #3. Good luck!
Additionally, I run the Firestorm blog and have some thoughts on a potential crossover. If you don't mind, please drop me an e-mail at shag@onceuponageek.com.
Thanks,

My name is Sea of Green, and I approve this post of Hal Jordan getting smacked around.
All right-thinking people DO, Sea.
Firestorm, eh Shag? I don't know a whole lot about Firestorm, although apparently the original is going to be showing up in Blackest Night, which must be depressing for his successor.
If there's one awesome reason to buy Cry for Justice, it's that James Robinson's got one very important part of Hal's activities very right...

Thought GL fans would giggle at that.
Now all we need is a few bonks on the head to go with Hal's other 'bonking.' Which reminds me that he's working with Supergirl, who had a huge crush on him in The Brave and the Bold (he had to keep reminding himself she was a teenager)
Of course, one doubtful aspect about that page is that Hal, while quite a player, generally tends to be a one-woman-at-a-time kinda guy. And another issue that has irked Gail Simone is that Robinson (incorrectly) assumed Zinda and the Huntress would actually be even semi-consciously involved in a situation where they'd be in bed together with the same man. But it makes for interesting banter between Hal and Ollie, so I'm willing to treat this as a minor throwaway to entertain, but not assume anything serious, really.
Sally - I can understand your confusion. Several of us that run DC character-specific blogs (i.e. Firestorm, Aquaman, Hawkman, Batman, etc) are planning a blog crossover in the next few weeks. It will focus on the Super Powers action figures. Looks like there will be over 10 blogs involved in the crossover.
Since Green Lantern was one of the Super Powers figures, I wanted to offer you an opportunity to join in on the crossover.
If you are interested, please drop me a line at shag@onceuponageek.com.
Thanks,

Yeah, but Hal is also definitely a "if-you-can't-be-with-the-one-you-love-love-the-one-you're-with" kinda guy. He wouldn't pass up a good opportunity if he could be certain there'd be no consequences.
Duskdog needs to write that story!
Oh GOD yes.
Do it, Duskdog...you know you WANT to!
And when you do, please also find a way to include a subplot involving another escapade involving a drunken threesome between Hal, Ollie and a vending machine (don't look at me- it's Gail Simone's awesome idea)
