Friday Night Fights: Bad Boys - Round 8: When Parallax Attacks!
Welcome to Friday Night Fights: Bad Boys - Round 8, the final leg of my Hal Jordan Trilogy. Mr. Jordan's gotten knocked around pretty good the last two rounds , so for Round 8 I thought I'd let Our Pal Hal deliver the beatdown instead. But wait, you say, isn't "Bad Boys" dedicated to the villains triumphing over our heroes? And isn't Hal Jordan a hero?
Yes, he is...as Green Lantern.
But not as this guy....
...PARALLAX!
Tonight's emerald brawl comes from Green Lantern#63, "The Parallax View", written by Ron Marz and drawn by Darryl Banks and Romeo Tanghal. Synopsis: Hal has survived the destruction of Oa and wants his GL ring back. Kyle Rayner, the current GL at the time of this story, doesn't want to give it to him:
The battle spills out into the city...
Kyle gets a good shot on Hal, and it looks like he may have won, but...
Right now, you may be wondring how Kyle's going to get out of this one.
Answer: He's not.
And down goes Kyle!!
But while Parallax may be able to take down Kyle, Spacebooger could still give him an emerald ass-whooping.

You have really great taste on catch article titles, even when you are not interested in this topic you push to read it
Oh Hal. It's a good thing that you were being possessed by a cosmic grasshopper, because I really hated you as Parallax.
We shouldn't be surprised that Hal wouldn't take no for an answer, since he pulled the exact same stunt with Guy in GL #25.
Scarily enough, that's the SECOND fight between Hal/Parallax and Kyle. The first time they got in a fight, they destroyed an entire planet.
