I look forward to reading his story when I get home. Green Lantern is on my pull list and I believe the Zero issue was sent while I'm here.
2. Why not a Christian?

Why not an Arab-Christian superhero? Most Arabs in USA are in fact Christians. Why sterotype Arabs as Muslims?

If there are fewer Arab Muslims then it works. He would feel more alienation from the people around him and help strengthen his willpower. The Green Lantern Rings are powered by will (which is why if you gave one to Batman, he would essentially become a god).

If there are fewer Arab Muslims in the US then it works. He would feel more alienation from the people around him and help strengthen his determination and by extension, his willpower. The Green Lantern Rings are powered by will. This is why if you gave one to Batman, he would essentially become a god as he is pure willpower.
