Green Lantern #1
This collection kicks off the 2022 Green Lantern series, following the fallout of the previous era as a new threat emerges. The story centers on Hal Jordan and the rest of the Green Lantern Corps as they face the mysterious and powerful Invictus, a being with a personal connection to the Corps' past. Written by Jeremy Adams, this volume sets the stage for a fresh direction in the Green Lantern mythos.
"Last Lanterns" marks the bold beginning of a new era for Green Lantern, introducing Sojourner Mullein as the sole remaining Green Lantern with a working ring after the Central Power Battery's catastrophic destruction. As John, stranded on a distant world facing an alien threat, battles visions and isolation, Sojourner takes up the mantle on a shattered Oa, launching a desperate mission to uncover the fate of her missing comrades. Written by Geoffrey Thorne and illustrated by Tom Raney and Marco Santucci, with colors by Michael Atiyeh and letters by Rob Leigh, the issue’s haunting tone is matched by Bernard Chang’s striking cover.
In a future where the Green Lantern Corps has fallen, John Stewart, Salaak, and G'Nort stand as the last defenders of the alien world of Shaar, facing a relentless assault by the Khunds—now without power, without rings, and without hope. The weight of legacy and the desperate fight for survival push them to their limits in a story that redefines what it means to be a guardian.
In "The Source of Peace," the Guardians summon the United Planets to Oa to debate whether the planet should join their ranks, a decision that stirs tension among the galaxy’s leaders. When alien invaders attack Oa seeking the Starheart, Teen Lantern fiercely defends her gauntlet, and John Stewart takes command as the Green Lantern Corps mobilizes to protect their home.
In "Death Is a Door," John Stewart grapples with the fallout of Yridian’s assault and the loss of a Guardian, as the Green Lantern Corps faces a major shift in structure following Oa’s integration into the United Planets. With the Corps reorganized and a thousand Lanterns under his command, John leads a mission into the perilous Dark Sectors—only for an unseen threat to strike Oa while they’re gone.
In "Cosmology Lesson," John finds himself stranded on a distant world under alien siege after his ring fails during a mission through the Dark Sectors, while Sojourner Mullein arrives on the shattered Oa to discover she may be the last Green Lantern with a working ring—left to piece together what happened and hunt for the missing. The story unfolds with a quiet urgency, blending cosmic mystery and personal reckoning as two Lanterns navigate the wreckage of the Corps from opposite ends of the universe.
In "Polarity," John Stewart finds himself stranded on a planet in the Dark Sector, his Green Lantern ring inert as he tries to aid the locals against the Qinoori. Meanwhile, on Oa, Sojourner Mullein, Teen Lantern, and Councillor Fel work to uncover the cause behind the Central Power Battery's destruction.
