Grüne Leuchte #1/1981
"Prolog" introduces a pivotal moment in the Green Lantern mythos, as the Green Lantern's power ring fails once more—this time revealing a shocking truth: the source of its failure lies with the brilliant but paralyzed Hector Hammond, who has stolen the ring's energy and fled into space, driven by a desperate quest to reclaim the meteor that granted him his immense mental powers. Written by Len Wein and illustrated by Dave Cockrum, with inks by Bob Smith and colors by Glynis Wein, this 1981 issue from Egmont Ehapa delivers a tense, character-driven mystery, with a cover by Dick Giordano that captures the story's brooding intensity.
In the quiet aftermath of a long battle, Grüne Leuchte rests among friends—Tom Kalmaku, Carol Ferris, and Fabian—only to be startled when his ring suddenly blares a warning. As the device speaks, Grüne Leuchte recounts a tale that stirs unease, and in the silence that follows, Fabian makes a secret vow of vengeance, unaware that the man he blames is not who he seems.
When Green Beacon’s power ring fails again, he tracks the source to the brilliant but paralyzed Hector Hammond—now a fugitive in space, seeking the meteor that once granted him his immense mind. With only 24 hours to stop him, Green Beacon must confront the thief before the stolen energy vanishes.
In "Lauter ehrenwerte Geschäftsmänner!", Grüner Pfeil and Blitzschwalbe investigate a string of explosions in Star City, uncovering a web of insurance fraud orchestrated by seemingly respectable members of the city's elite. With Roy Harper lending his support despite a broken leg, the duo races to expose the truth behind the glittering façade of Star City's most respected businessmen.
