Good old bogeyman Krona has been revived and empowered by Nekron (two villains who really need to never ever appear again), in a comic book you know 8 year-old Geoff Johns read the living hell out of.
Big old humungo Krona has laid waste to the mighty Green Lantern Corp:
Everyone is unconscious except Hal...but he's got a plan!!(uh-oh)


Poor Hal...control over all the Green Lanterns' rings, and the best "the greatest Green Lantern ever" can come up with a generic power blast. Kinda lame, but this just might work...
Uh, no. Gotta love the baffled look on Hal's face.And Krona ends it thusly:
Night night, Hal.Spacebooger may not believe that willpower is an emotion, but he's quite sure that beat-down is on the "emotional spectrum."
Hal fails badly in Tales Of The Green Lantern Corps #2 (1981), plot by Mike W. Barr, script Len Wein ("featuring concepts created by Marv Wolfman"), art by Joe Staton and Frank McLaughlin.
And all you readers--join in the fights. Because there's an awful lot of scenes of Hal Jordan being humiliated out there that I don't have access to. Come play each Friday!! It's fun!!
