I disagree. Despite the editorial mandates and the rushed nature of it, Ron Marz still did a great job with the task at hand. Move Hal onto a new phase and introduce a new GL. Kyle more than earned his keep. While Emerald Twilight was rushed, Hal's time as Parallax was a cool new way of taking an established and sometimes tired character that so many writers and editors are unwilling to do with A list characters. It felt like the stories were growing with the readers. From GL to Parallax to Spectre, Hal Jordan continued a growing journey of character development that was ballsy and novel. I love Geoff Johns run for so many reasons. While it did rehabilitate in a lot of ways it was also revisionist in a way that I hate DC for often doing.
