☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis fourth volume of the Green Lantern Archives series collects classic Silver Age tales featuring Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern of Sector 2814. Reprinting issues from the early 1960s, it showcases the cosmic adventures and imaginative stories that defined the character's early era under the creative team of John Broome and Gil Kane.
"Master of the Power Ring" presents a pivotal moment in Hal Jordan’s Green Lantern legacy, as Carol Ferris returns as Star Sapphire in a high-stakes duel of willpower and control. Written by Gardner Fox and brought to life with dynamic art by Gil Kane, inks by Joe Giella, and vibrant colors by Lee Loughridge, this 2002 archive issue captures a rare, intimate clash between two of DC’s most enduring figures. The cover, penciled by Gil Kane and inked by Murphy Anderson, perfectly frames the tension of the moment.
In "The Shark That Hunted Human Prey!" from Green Lantern Archives #4, a nuclear accident transforms a common shark into a monstrous, intelligent predator with a thirst for human prey. As the creature terrorizes the coast, Green Lantern must confront a threat unlike any he's faced—where the line between beast and villain blurs.
In "The Strange World Named Green Lantern!" from Green Lantern Archives #4, a living planet reaches out to Green Lantern in a desperate, chaotic attempt to communicate—its very existence a mix of hunger and isolation. When the Lantern confronts the planet’s distress, he discovers a strange, glowing fireball at its core, leading to a moment of quiet understanding and a solution that reshapes both the planet’s fate and its connection to the universe.
In "Star Sapphire Unmasks Green Lantern!", Carol Ferris returns as Star Sapphire for a high-stakes showdown with Hal Jordan, testing who truly holds the power to lead. As their battle unfolds, Hal’s defeat leads to a shocking moment—Star Sapphire unmasking him—only for the spell to unravel, leaving Carol unaware of the encounter and Hal left to wonder what really happened.
Inside the power ring, Hal Jordan confronts Myrwhydden, the ancient sorcerer now wielding magic once more after Abin Sur’s death. Trapped in a realm of shifting illusions and psychic traps, Hal must outwit a foe who turns the ring’s very power against him.
