(manic) Brightest (mon)Day #7--Cleared Of All Charges?

Just so we're clear...

Post-Blackest Night resurrection:

Captain Boomerang is incarcerated (yet allowed to wear his costume!!) for his pre-resurrection crimes:

Maxwell Lord is a wanted man for his pre-resurrection crimes:

But Hank Hall?

Mulligan. For some reason he's forgiven for all his crimes. Forgiven for being an asshole dystopian dictator who has killed millions; forgiven for helping to end the life of every being in the universe in Zero Hour; forgiven for murdering several members of the Justice Society.

No one's pursuing him, no one has incarcerated him...he apparently has a "get out of jail free card" for his crimes, despite making Boomer and Max look like angels.

DC--where no crime is so severe that your hero can't be completely forgiven for it.

Hank Hal, Hal Jordan and Captain Atom probably have regular meetings where they just laugh their butts off at the rest of the DC schmucks heroes...

Would it have been so hard to make a new Hawk? I mean they've done it before. Heck he can even be Hank's cousin also named Hank.

Sigh...

Maybe the 3 of them can team up with Jean Grey, Wolverine and Professor X (each guilty of a few million deaths) some time.
