In all honesty though, I'd say Hal has more willpower than Superman or Batman.

I would honestly say they'all all pretty much equal...actually I would argue Bruce prob has higher willpower than Hal or Superman

And I'd disagree, but I can see why you'd see it that way.

what makes you think hal's got stronger willpower than bruce? what has hal done that you don't think bruce would?

well, I would argue Bruce makes more sacrifices in his life than Hal does...hence his stronger willpower

What do you mean by sacrifices?

His feats of willpower, mainly. Bruce is smarter, by some degree, so he has an advantage in that sense that he can combine the two, but even Superman has instances of having more will than Batman, and vice versa.

I would bring up the ring feats, but that wouldn't be fair to Bruce considering his attitude towards the ring.

bruce basically gave up his own personal life when he assumed the mantle of the bat. I think hal still has a personal life to a degree.

That's Superman. Bruce has had tons of partners, but being Batman has gotten in the way more than once, added to the fact that his intensity and obsession with his "duties" makes it hard for him to establish long-lasting relationships.

I don't see how having more of a social life means Hal has less willpower.

I mean, if someone asked you to give up your family and gf for a job, you'd have to have tremendous willpower to accept that tradeoff.

Bruce has had more serious girlfriends than Hal has ever had.

and whatever Bruce gives up, he gives up by choice. That's not willpower; that's him doing what he wants. He WANTS to be Batman.

let's posit a hypo willpower test: both bruce and hal are caught by a sadistic maniac and tied to a a chair...he asks each to reveal superman's identity

he tortures them with sick torture devices...you think bruce would crack before hal or the otherway around?

depends on the act.

hal could last as long as bruce imo, but bruce would be more likely to escape before hal due to better intelligence.

Hulk wins.

That shit will feed him in stress/anger, and he'll break that machine.

If not, it's a victory for Doom. The runner-up would be: Superman, Wolverine and Steve Rogers, in that order.

Hal Jordan
Doctor Doom
Superman
Steve Rogers
Thor
Hulk
Wolverine
Punisher

That list isn't in order, with characters like those, it's impossible to decide a winner in this scenario.

Nah, I vote for Supes

Superman has expelled Jericho and eclipso from his body just by pure will when even hal was possesed by him

Spectre has said that Kal has the strongest will in creation

Not a hyperbole as he broke the control of emperor joker by just not believing in his power. He has also battled against Dominus by just pure willpower before using T-vo on him.

Superman/Hal.

Spider-Man.

People seem to be selling Hulk short in this thread... he might not win but he'd be one of the last ones left standing
