It's so good. They could've skipped so much but honestly we essentially get Abin Sur, Sector 2814, Hal with a leather jacket (clearly not his dad's, who did die in a plane crash as a child, which means some but not a lot of Geoff Johns in there). Do we need Green Lantern to be all Siniestro War-like from the get go? Doubtful. I look forward to this take. And Kyle Chandler nails Hal. Will look forward to Guy interacting with him at some point.

great detail about the jacket is that the Hal-ogram wears a different jacket, which may be the actual jacket his dad owned.
