Excellent reading. Considering what NASA is now working
on; (The X-43A); I'll say these guys were definitely
visionaries in 1962, with a manned flight of an X-50.
Warner Brothers, It's time for the Green Lantern!

The second volume of the sect starts reprints from Issue 6.
We see the Green Lantern Corps for the first time, an involved story of the Guardians and GL's greatest foe Sinestro.
Plenty of Kane and Fox what more can anyone ask?

I highly recommend this book to all Green Lantern fans! It contains the early adventures of Hal Jordan...and even has a guest appearnce by The Flash (Wally West). Trust me, when you start to read it you won't put it down!

Green Lantern has always been an interesting member of the 'super hero' group by DC. As a boy, I used to look forward to the Justice League of America comic to see him in action. Later, when I discovered he had his own title, I began to buy it as well.
The character is uniquely human has an interesting story thread -- the mysterious guardians at OA, Sinestro (the renegade green lantern), Carol Ferris, and so on. Like The Flash, many of the characters come back for encores and give readers something they're familiar with - something to come home to.
This book, volume two in the GL series, is a fine addition to the growing DC Archive collection. Nicely hard bound, it consists of 222 full color pages on quality paper featuring 14 complete adventures of the Silver Age Green Lantern.
Features in this volume are the origin of Sinestro, how Green Lantern came up with his oath, and a battle between GL and the Flash. Great stories all.
If you enjoyed the Silver Age of DC comics -- if you liked the exploits of Green Lantern -- if you like well-done stories (for a comic book), this book will not disappoint you. It makes a fine addition to the first volume of the series. I hope they make a third.
The rest of the oath?
.... no evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evil's might, Beware my power, Green Lantern's light.

The stories reprinted in this volume are by John Broome and Gil Kane, both masters of the medium in their prime. Herein you will meet for the first time (or revist as they were the first time) alien Green Lanterns, the rogue Green Lantern Sinestro, and the Green Lantern Corps. See GL travel to a future where he is unknown only to himself. Wittness the begining of Green Lantern's legendary friendship with The Flash. These stories, even moreso than those in volume 1, set the plots in motion that would keep Green Lantern exciting for over 35 years. These are the very best stories from the Silver Age of Comics.
