Green Lantern #152

Green Lantern charges headlong into a mob of snarling, red-eyed blue aliens, his ring blazing as he declares, "If you guys want a war so bad, you've got one — with me!" Joe Staton and Steve Mitchell pack the cover of this May 1982 issue with furious energy, the horde closing in from every angle while Hal stands defiantly at the center of the chaos. With the "Star Cycle!" story arc in full swing and a creative team that includes Marv Wolfman, Dan Mishkin, and Gary Cohn alongside artist Joe Staton, this is the kind of issue that reminds you exactly why Green Lantern earned DC's "Where the Action Is!" banner.
