Say, here's a question for the holidays: is Hal Jordan/Green Lantern Jewish?

Well, at least (recently and canonically),
yes! Hal Jordan's mother was Jewish, which makes him Jewish, although he was raised Catholic.

Yes, I know, I'm as surprised as you are that the hero I thought was a Super-W.A.S.P. is one of God's Chosen People. But it goes a long way towards explaining this cool Hanukkah story starring the Emerald Embessador, in which GL, not for
nisht, says "
hei!" and kicks an enemy on an alien kanga in the
shin and then mutters "
nun evil shall escape my sight." Yes, folks, it's all dreidel puns all the way down, all by a non-kosher little stuffed bull.
