I have not been a Green Lantern fan for very long, though I've read a lot of stories with him in it, and I have a very good idea of his personality. It's talked about a lot in the story about how many times he's gone against the Guardians, and now after coast city is destroyed, after everything he loves and cares about is destroyed, you think that wouldn't make him a bit angry? And after his attempt to bring it back is interrupted, you think he would remain unaffected? I love the amount of emotion ... Read More

well in Hal's place..absolute power corrupts absolutely...This story is what I call the "Hall of Fame" storylines.

After a meaningless misson put upon him buy the Gaurdians, he come home to find Coast City reduced to ashes. Everyone he knew and loved (except for Pieface & Carol). Grief and guilt consumes him and even though ... Read More

In the 60's, the Green Lantern concept was expanded from its original "mystical ring" role.

Sound a little like Star Wars? Well, both Green Lantern and Star Wars borrow heavily from an old scifi book ... Read More

Ironically, the best Green Lantern story I ever read was also a kind of farewell to the greatest Green Lantern character ever. This is the end of Hal Jordan as a Green Lantern and it couldn't have been told any better. Although I disagree with some of what has been done with the character since, especially making him the new Spectre, there is no denying the power of this story. After losing virtually everyone he cares for after Coast City was destroyed by the Eradicator during the Reign of the Supermen ... Read More

Those of you who were in love with Hal Jordon (former Green Lantern) may not approve of this storyline, but if you're a general fan of comics it doesn't get any better. This story is about Hal's fall from grace, and although, as some will say, the writing isn't as good as in other books, the story is written with, and fueled by, raw emotion - something drastically missing from some comics these days. It's an adrenaline rush to read a comic where something actually HAPPENS, rather than a return to the status ... Read More
