		The Parallax action figure resembles the current interpretation seen in Green Lantern Rebirth, although there are ver few alterations to the characters’ costume.

		Once Hal died and merge with the Specter Parallax went with him, (remember that it was merge with Hal Soul).
		Parallax was tied to Hal's soul and weaknesses, not the power of the Central Battery.
		According to a few comics, even breaking the Green Lantern Ring isn't enough to stop the user if their will was strong enough(see legends, where Kyles ring is crumbled), and strong willed one's are able to control it, the ring was only the conduit.

	Discover the Wisdom of Mankind on parallax (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Knowing the solar parallax and the mean Earth radius allows one to calculate the AU, the first, small step on the long road of establishing the size andmdash; and thus the minimum age andmdash; of the visible Universe.
		The fact that stellar parallax was so small that it was unobservable at the time was used as the main scientific argument against heliocentrism during the early modern age.
		Dynamic parallax has sometimes also been used to determine the distance to a supernova, when the optical wave front of the outburst was seen to propagate through the surrounding dust clouds at an apparent angular velocity, when we know its true propagation velocity to be that of the speed of light.

	Panelling Parallax: The Fearful Symmetry of William Blake and Alan Moore
		Moore's iconoclastic experiments with comic book form and his celebrated initial departure from DC Comics due to the institution of the mature readers line Vertigo in the late 80s, along with his reluctance to be interviewed demonstrate discontent with the market power of mainstream comics and their avid fanboys.
		Parallax emerges for Karatani as the basic experience of the state in transition between modernism and postmodernism, the state where the framing of the self by capitalist subjectivity supplants any transcendental image we may have of the self.
		Comic sequence invokes Lacan, "through the interruptions or cuts in the body-space of the page which leave blank spaces between the panels that correspond to (or mark the absence of) events that are assumed to be occurring 'between' the panels" (par.

	Parallax View by Fred Kaplan
		The first to follow is THE PARALLAX VIEW, craftily directed by Alan J. Pakula, starring and financially backed (in part) by Warren Beatty—who also had a heavy hand in MICKEY ONE, that classic of the paranoid thriller genre.
		Especially important, he discovers that the whole thing is being run by the Parallax Corporation, an organization that hires certain psychological types (primarily anal-retentive in the extreme) as professional assassins, and then has them kill off select individuals in ways that make the victims’ deaths seem unplanned.
		In THE PARALLAX VIEW, the audience is shown that anyone can be shot down at any moment, and this due to an anonymous, impersonal, fascistic Corporation whose offices exist somewhere up there in one of those tall skyscrapers that loom over the lone individual with such intimidation already.

	Green Lantern: Rebirth #1 - #6 - PopMatters Comic Book Review
		In the meantime, Jordan had become Parallax, a nearly omnipotent villain who tried to re-create the universe in the "Zero Hour" cross-over, only to be defeated, and who later redeemed himself, if only partially, by sacrificing himself to re-ignite the sun in the 1996 "Final Night" storyline.
		Parallax is connected to the color yellow (symbolizing Fear) just as the color green (of the Green Lanterns) is associated with Will (the GL rings have traditionally had a weakness for the color yellow).
		For decades, an increasingly large number of talented writers have fought to convince people that comics don't have to be formulaic retreads of the same stories or written at the level of emotionally stunted 12-year-olds.

		Yet in 2071, Parallax helped Trey of Rann, the first Gold Man, reignite the dying sun and prevent Earth from facing its “final night.” However, Parallax scarified Trey’s life to save his own and in 2075 found an alternate timeline, where his world was not destroyed.
		His plan to destroy Earth A’s main timeline and replace it with that alternate was foiled by the Justice League, Timeshaper, The Spectre, and Mongul, who Parallax later killed.
		At the end of the conflict, Parallax was finally killed by Jack Kent/Superman, Doc Holiday, The Spectre and Timeshaper.

	Green Lantern: Rebirth [2005] Shaking Through.net: Comics: Review
		Even when Parallax sacrificed himself to save the sun, and Jordan later was reborn as/merged with the Spectre, an otherworldly agent of vengeance, those fans weren't appeased.
		After years of DC Comics standing by its decision to sully Jordan's legacy, Johns, a devout fan himself, was given the green light to "fix" things, and return the character of Hal Jordan to his perch as one of the most inspiring heroes in the DC canon.
		Johns deftly explains how and why Parallax was able to infect Hal Jordan, just as his tenure as the Spectre seems to be eating away at his noble core.

		There was a decision made to do a 24-hour comic, which, like the big bang before it, spread out slowly, devolving and reforming along the avenues of the city we all called home.
		A comic book reader can never not be aware that she is looking at an illustrated story, the presence of the artist in the story is always prevalent, and once you’ve created a duality that exists outside of the story and yet wholly affects your perception of it, yup, you’re talking about the uncanny.
		Meathaus is a collection of friends and people who create comics and cartoons and illustrations that grew out of an original core group of students at the School of Visual Arts in 2000.

		A parallax is a change in an object due to a change in perspective.
		After Hal died as Parallax reigniting the sun, He was given a second chance, or punishment, depending how you look at it, to become this ghostly being of immense power.

	Infinite Crisis Geoff Johns Superman DC comic books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		For over a year now, before the readership even knew what was going on, DC Comics has been building up to this storyline, which promises to restructure the entire universe, and seeing how much has already changed, this is for once a claim that isn’t difficult to believe.
		This is a fantastic comic, and while being a longtime DC fan has certainly helped my appreciation of it, I think anyone with a passing interest in the characters will get pulled right in and camp out for the next issue.

	Welcome to Adobe GoLive 6
		Comic book readers want to send a message that modern comics offer more than cheap entertainment, Robin shouting quips to Batman or Superman leaping tall buildings in a single bound.
		While comics will always be filled with images such as these, comic books have become darker and less super-hero oriented in recent years.
		Comic books that have been adapted for animated series have also proven to be popular among fans of all ages, and tend to be less violent than comic books or movies.

		Parallax: Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern, was one of the most powerful beings in the universe, and a righteous defender of good.
		Parallax sees a grave threat to innocents across the universe and will attempt to stop her here, before lives are lost.
		Parallax would probably arrive at the scene drunk and brooding about the fact that he hasn't got a girlfriend (c'mon, even the Joker has Harley Quinn), and Phoenix would be just as bored, cause she only goes out and destroyed galaxies, so she's also VERY horny.

	Mutant Liberation Front - recent Superman comics
		I always find it amusing when Superman drops by in a Batman comic though, as Batman always treats him as if he were some naive child.
		The Superman comics eventually degenerated into being a weekly series, meaning you had to buy Superman, Action Comics, Man of Steel, and Adventures of Superman each month to get the entire story.
		What you're really building up to with Hal is the Parallax thing - which sadly won't have the same impact on someone reading it now, as it did on someone reading it then.

	Spectre (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the mid-1940s, the popularity of superhero comics began to decline, and the Spectre suffered as a result.
		When the Silver Age of comic books arrived in the 1960s, the Spectre was re-written and returned to the role of an avenging undead spirit.
		In both cases, in the final struggle against the main villain — the Anti-Monitor and Parallax respectively — the Spectre was the only hero capable of standing against the villains directly, allowing the other heroes time to put a plan into action that would destroy the villains once and for all.

	Green Lantern Rebirth #6 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		While Parallax puts up a good fight, the Green Lanterns prove to be too much for the evil entity, and as the issue ends it looks like the crisis has been resolved.
		The simple fact of the matter is that Parallax wasn't destroyed but rather he was placed back inside the central battery.
		Everyone has seen what the Parallax entity is capable of, and yet the big solution to the crisis is to place the entity right back into a position where it can make a repeat performance.

		Long time comics fans are only too familiar with the continuity and plot problems that have always plagued the time travelling Legion of Super-Heroes, a group of teen heroes from the 30th Century, who have figured prominently in DC's history since their first appearance in the 1950's.
		Parallax possesses all of the Green Energy formerly utilized by the Guardians of the Universe, and in addition, the total power of their planet, Oa.
		Previously, he was the pre-eminent threat to the universe itself, in his attempt to atone for the Coast City massacre--he wished to utilize the Green Power to re-work the universe so that nothing bad or evil ever occurred, to anyone, ever again.

	Revolving Door of Death 08 - Green Arrow (Dec 1999)
		He appeared as a backing feature in the multi-story comics of that far-off day when a comic book contained an anthology of (mostly disposible) stories by a variety of artists and writers.
		I do not intend this to mean that the character concept lacks the potential for indefinite future stories; but comics, themselves, after the sixties, no longer kept to a reasonably human scale.
		The most likely interpretation of this sequence suggests that Hal Jordan, as Parallax, came to visit the site of Oliver Queen's grave (Parallax' role as a time-traveler means that sequential constraints do not affect his actions in a logical, predictable way).

	Doomsday (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Doomsday is the name of a fictional character in the DC Comics Universe, a supervillain best known for fighting and killing Superman in the Death of Superman storyline in 1993.
		Simultaneously, Doomsday developed a strong desire to murder Superman in particular; this was later explained by Doomsday sensing that Superman was Kryptonian, and, due to the agony of his continuous deaths during his creation, Doomsday regarded anything Kryptonian as an automatic threat.
		As in the comics, this version of Doomsday seems to have a biology that adapts to any opponent given time, so any attack used to defeat him works only once: when he re-appeared after his laser-lobotomy, he had grown a heavy bone plate in his skull, making it impossible to lobotomize him again.
