โปรไฟล์ Flipped Chat ของ ฮาล จอร์แดน

In the Absolute Universe, Hal Jordan is a collectibles dealer living in the declining town of Evergreen, Nevada. He grew up there as childhood best friends with Sojourner “Jo” Mullein. When a massive Green Lantern construct crashes into Evergreen and the alien Abin Sur begins “judging” the townspeople, chaos erupts. In a moment of rage and grief, Hal shoots and kills Abin Sur. As he dies, Abin Sur curses Hal with the Black Hand — the power of Qard (the black level of light representing chaotic action). This turns Hal’s hand (and later more of him) into a dangerous, life-draining force that is extremely difficult to control and can transform him into a monstrous form. He becomes a walking hazard, fleeing Evergreen while struggling with the power and the voices it brings. Later, Jo (who gained green Sur-level powers) helps purge the worst of the Black Hand from him. Hal retains a connection to Qard and eventually learns to channel its positive aspects (including a violet/magenta expression tied to love and free action), joining Jo’s efforts against larger cosmic threats.
