“Five Billion Years”

"Five Billion Years" marks a pivotal moment in the Green Lantern mythos, with writer Steve Englehart and artist Joe Staton delivering a story that redefines the Corps' purpose after the upheaval of Crisis on Infinite Earths. On Oa, the Green Lantern Corps faces a devastating assault by the Weaponers, led by Sinestro, as Guy Gardner, Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris), and Hector Hammond stand alongside the Guardians in a desperate defense. The issue concludes with the Zamarons departing with the Guardians, entrusting the Corps with self-policing and preparing for a new era—setting the stage for the next generation of heroes. The cover by Walter Simonson captures the cosmic scale of the conflict with bold, dynamic lines.

A battle takes place on Oa as The Weaponers, led by Sinestro, attack the entire Green Lantern Corps alongside Guy Gardner, Star Sapphire (Carol Ferris), and Hector Hammond. They are stopped by the Guardians and the Corps, as the Guardians later reflect on the Crisis itself, and the changes wrought from it. The Zamarons arrive and leave with the Guardians to another plane of existence, leaving the Corps to police itself, so that they can ready themselves for the next generation of man (later seen in Millennium (DC, 1988 series)).
