Great to see this groundbreaking work collected again, and the greenies fighting each others. I can remember many panels of this excellent artwork. You can't have too much of guys in tight green outfits, fighting each other. Although one of the major confrontations is actually out of costume, topless, too, for the female fans. Just excellent work all around here.

I love Denny O'Neil's writing when he sticks to super-heroes fighting super-villians, but he took an awfully liberal views on the issues. I bought the book none the less, and I would buy it again, but he made everyone who was homeless or a junky extemely innocent. Some of those people did get there because of their own actions not the government or evil landlords. As for Neal Adams, simply awesome. I love his pencils. anyone who likes his stuff should check out any work but the current writer and artist on X-MEN, ALAN DAVIS. If you find this book at a book or comic shop, buy it!

Hard-Traveling Heroes: The Green Lantern/Green Arrow Collection Volume 1 reprints Green Lantern (second series) #76-82, the infamous team-up of Green Lantern & Green Arrow from the early 1970s by writer Denny O'Neil and artist Neal Adams, the classic stories that changed the way comic books were told. Dennis O'Neil wrote stories that dealt with social issues like racism, bigotry, cults, etc. added with the superhero elements of comic books. Great artwork provided by artist supreme Neal Adams, one of the best in the comic book industry. His artwork was realistic, making these stories more three dimensional. Green Lantern and Green Arrow travel the country encountering these problems. It was these stories that made what comic books are today, no longer just for kids. These stories would also influence several writers and artists of today's comic book industry.
