Captain Harold "Hal" Jordan, also known as the Green Lantern, is a superhero from DC Comics. He appeared in the 109th episode of Death Battle, Ben 10 VS Green Lantern, where he fought against Ben Tennyson from the Ben 10 series.
History
Born in Coast City, California, Harold Jordan was the once the son of a U.S. Air Force test pilot and looked up to him as his role model. Unfortunately, his father died during a disastrous flight test, traumatizing the young Hal. On his 18th birthday, Hal joined the Air Force and became a pilot, living up to his father's memory, and he continued to serve his country until one fateful day when he discovered a wrecked starfighter and pulled out its dying pilot.
This was Abin Sur, and he was a part of the intergalactic peacekeeping force known as the Green Lantern Corps. On the verge of death, he needed to pass on his Power Ring, a symbol of his authority and source of superhuman abilities, onto another with extraordinary willpower. Sensing Hal's remarkable will and bravery, the ring chose him, and with his last breath, Abin dubbed Hal as his successor. Not long afterward, Hal was transported to the planet Oa, where ancient beings called the Guardians indoctrinated him into the corps as the acting Green Lantern of Sector 2814. Since then, Hal proven to be a devoted protector, and one of the best of his generation. Hal would also become a founding member of the Justice League, working alongside other heroes to defend Earth and beyond from universal threats through his sheer, unbreakable will.
