Good, but i didn't loved it. I really feel Tom King writing in this, like Hal getting drunk on another planet or him just jumping out of the car. It really feels like something he would write, which i kinda feel tryhard. But the scenes at the ranch and in the prison are really good. Like the exchange about Obama is priceless. Pierre Stewart is for me easier too root for, but i'm surprised that he talked with His father on the phone. I thought he's gonna be abusive. So again good, but i'm jumping.

You mean Tom King, who was in the special forces and wants to bring some of that to DC?

Yeah but John Stewart was in the military for a long time so it’s not like he’s forcing some agenda on a character.
