Hal Jordan dated a thirteen-year old alien girl, and everyone was somehow okay with it because she used space magic to make herself look older. This is a sentence you can never unread, and for that we are sincerely sorry. If it makes you feel any better, she was called Arisia Rrab, which is the coolest name ever, for one of the most unfortunate characters ever.

Arisia’s crush on Hal - who were shown as almost sibling like, just in case the age thing wasn’t enough - manifested through the ring to age her to an adult, in a move that makes you hope the writers involved with the comic were doing okay.

It’s worth mentioning that, for all intents and purposes, Arisia was essentially a kid in an adults’ body, which only really serves to make the whole situation even weirder than it already was.

Arisia and Hal would end up breaking up in Action Comics #620, meaning Arisia lost years of her life she’ll never get back for a year or two of dating. It doesn’t seem like the fairest trade ever, somehow.
