Green Lantern #49

Part two of the "Emerald Twilight" arc arrives with a cover that's genuinely unsettling — Hal Jordan looms in close-up, his expression wild and desperate, his gloved hands bristling with multiple Green Lantern power rings stacked across his fingers. Penciled by Darryl Banks and inked by Romeo Tanghal, the all-green palette amplifies the sense that something has gone seriously, disturbingly wrong with Earth's greatest Lantern. Ron Marz and Fred Haynes carry the story inside, making this 1994 issue a gripping chapter in one of DC's most haunting runs.
