About this Collection
This collection kicks off the 2018 Green Lantern Corps series, following the intergalactic peacekeepers as they face new threats and internal strife. Written by Peter J. Tomasi, it features the likes of Guy Gardner, John Stewart, and Kilowog in action-packed space adventures. The volume gathers issues #1–6 of the series, setting the stage for the Corps' struggle against a rising power that challenges their authority.
"Escapist Entertainment" kicks off a bold new chapter in the Green Lantern Corps with a haunting tale written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Kevin O'Neill, whose distinctive art brings a surreal, nightmarish edge to the story. Abin Sur ventures into the forbidden reaches of Ysmault, where he encounters the terrifying Empire of Tears and the enigmatic Qull of the Five Inversions, who offers cryptic answers to his questions—each one carrying a weight that echoes far beyond the moment. The cover, a striking collaboration by Ed Hannigan and Joe Staton, captures the eerie, otherworldly tone of this chilling first issue.
