About this Collection

This collection celebrates five decades of John Stewart, the architect-turned-Green Lantern who brought a new perspective to the DC Universe. It gathers key stories from his debut in the 1970s through his leadership in the Justice League and his pivotal role in the Green Lantern Corps, showcasing his evolution from a backup character to a fan-favorite hero. The volume includes tales by notable creators that highlight Stewart's unique blend of military precision, artistic vision, and unwavering willpower.

In "Beware My Power," John Stewart faces the consequences of his choices as the Green Lantern Corps confronts the Anti-Life Equation across multiple fronts. Written by Jim Starlin and illustrated by Mike Mignola, this 2021 celebration issue brings together heroes like Superman, Orion, and J'onn J’onzz in a high-stakes mission to stop an escalating cosmic threat—each journey revealing how far the universe will go to resist despair. The cover, a collaborative masterpiece by Jim Lee, Dave Gibbons, and Neal Adams, captures the intensity of the moment.
