In "The Legion of Super-Creatures!", Green Lantern uses his power ring to conjure a bizarre, ring-powered menace to avoid a marriage proposal from Carol Ferris—only to find himself racing to stop the very creation he set loose. Written by John Broome and brought to life with dynamic art by Gil Kane and Joe Giella, this 1976 DC Special features a playful yet clever twist on the hero’s powers, all wrapped in a cover by Ernie Chan that captures the chaos in bold, expressive lines.

When Green Lantern tries to dodge a marriage proposal from Carol Ferris, he uses his power ring to conjure a rampaging menace—only to find himself having to stop it. A lighthearted yet clever twist on heroics, this 1976 tale from DC Special #21 pits the Lantern against a self-made crisis, testing his judgment as much as his willpower.
