However, thanks to Hal's example, Jim decided to stick in there and loosen up with his family.

Jillian "Cowgirl" Pearlman

During a date, Carol Ferris, possessed by the Star Sapphire Gem, attacked them. However, after noting that Hal had feelings for Jillian, the Gem transfered to her. Hal and Carol worked together and freed her from the Gem's hold, but the Zamarons arrived and made Hal choose a girl - "winner" became the new Star Sapphire (Hal decided to Take a Third Option and chose a Zamaron, forcing them to retreat to deal with it). She and Carol parted on friendly terms, but both love Hal and he is conflicted on which one he will choose in the end.

Tom "Pieface" Kalmaku
"Homeworld: Earth"

Ferris Aircraft mechanic and Hal's friend. Tom was aware of Hal's secret identity almost from the start and helped him out in his adventures. Years later, after Tom got married and started a family, Carol Ferris made him a full partner in Ferris Aircraft.


 * Berserk Button: In modern stories, calling him "Pieface", which is an offensive reference to his Inuit ethnicity.
 * Out of Focus: He's almost never seen these days, but the fact that he's now a CEO means he's probably doing well.
 * Refusal of the Call: After the Millennium crossover, Tom was chosen by the Guardians to be one of the New Guardians, but he declined because he had a family to look after.
 * Secret Keeper
 * Sidekick: To Hal in The Silver Age of Comic Books.
 * Society Marches On: Tom Kalmaku e was called "Pieface" because he was Inuit (ie, "Eskimo pie"). This nickname was later quietly dropped. Kalmaku debuted in 1959, when the thought of a non-white person being trusted as a Secret Keeper would've been controversial before considering that Hal entrusted Kalmaku with the lantern, and even had Tom replace him as Green Lantern on at least one occasion.
