    Character » Hal Jordan appears in 5259 issues.

    With the ability to overcome great fear and harness the power of will, test-pilot Hal Jordan was chosen to be the Green Lantern of Sector 2814 inheriting the ring of the dying alien Green Lantern, Abin Sur.

    Has new 52 rewrote any of Hal Jordan's history from before the new 52?

    yeah some of it. he doesn't really have any friends in the New 52 outside of Barry and even then, they don't seem as close as they used to be. outside of that most of the Geoff Johns run is still canon.

    He has additional, unnecessary stripes on his costume?

    There's actually a somewhat similar thread. Basically he's younger and more douchey, which is surprising that's even possible.

    I don't think hal changed that much from beforehand. One of the controversies is that he may not have been parallax in the new 52, as some writers are trying to retcon Kyle Rayner's origin, which is total bs as Geoff Johns' series made many, many references to parallax and would make no sense to make his and kyle's stories separate. To be honest, if anything changed from Hal Jordan, it was everything outside of Johns' series and some of the important 90s stuff (like parallax and Spectre, as they are the seminal parts of Rebirth).

    @mp13: I believe parallax is still canon to current Hal. This was shown in the last chapters. Hal meets Parllax Hal and says it is him.
