Jordan's willingness to leap into danger without a second thought is under the magnifying glass, but seeing the contrasting situations allows you to appreciate it as much as you recognize it as a potential flaw. The comic begins with a gorgeous introduction from artist Xermánico, colorist Romulo Fajardo Jr., and letterer Dave Sharpe, and when we see the ring slinging commence later in the issue that fire of hope and pure will shines as brightly as ever. While that idea is hammered home by issue's end, Adams bounces back and forth between new obstacles, showcasing the hero as much as he does the man behind the ring. His charisma still works, but it only goes so far these days, especially when there's as much history as there is between Ferris and Jordan.
It's apt that it all begins with Carol Ferris, and in many ways, her reaction teases the challenges to come for Jordan. Hal's story is helmed by writer Jeremy Adams, and Adams wastes no time in establishing who Hal is and how those in his life react to him these days.
