About this Collection

This 2003 collection reprints the six-issue miniseries Green Lantern: Emerald Dawn II, which continues the origin story of Hal Jordan as the Silver Age Green Lantern. Written by James Owsley with art by Joe Staton, the story delves deeper into Hal's early days as a rookie Lantern, exploring his training under the Guardians of the Universe and his first encounters with classic foes like Sinestro. The volume serves as a direct sequel to the earlier Emerald Dawn miniseries, bridging Hal's transition from test pilot to cosmic hero.

In "Emerald Dawn II, Part I: The Powers That Be," Hal Jordan finds himself behind bars after a DUI, serving time alongside a surprisingly familiar lawyer—Guy Gardner. As Hal adjusts to prison life, the Guardians of the Universe dispatch Sinestro to train him, setting the stage for an unexpected alliance. Written by Keith Giffen and Gerard Jones, with dynamic art by M. D. Bright and inks by Romeo Tanghal, this 2003 issue blends courtroom tension with cosmic intrigue. The cover, by Alan Davis and Mark Farmer, captures the clash of wills with striking detail.
