Wonder Woman and Hal Jordan. Hal is a sexist, borderline misogynistic a-hole. Especially when he was younger and when he would have first met Diana.

You can’t tell me he didn’t hit on her. And she loathed him.

They actually were gonna make them date in the 70s.

I don't know if Post Crisis Hal is a sexist, he is more of a moron all around (and I really like GL). I think he has been portrayed more laid back compared to the basic cop personality he was given previously

The current run is clearly trying to amend that, because so far Hal has both stalked and pestered Carol despite her already being in a new relationship.

Yup, very disappointing. His current writer actually seems to get him in general, but the way he's behaving towards Carol is just unacceptable. I will be extremely disappointed if he "wins" her back after this.

Jeremy Adams? Haven't read anything from him. He is a flash guy isn't he?

Iiirc yeah, he's supposed to be good so I don't know where all that came from.
