So to recap
Hal Jordan is dead killed by the sheriff, John lets her go.
Sheriffs son is a manhunter finger baby who John lets go because he might not be a bad guy.
John steals Hals ring and takes an unsanctioned lantern built by Sinestro, then kicks Guy Gardener off of Earth and declares himself its new protector.
John makes up his own oath and is now an independent contractor lantern.
No suit, but he flies now.
Great fuckin job guys.
