Tales of the Green Lantern Corps #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Challenge!" kicks off a high-stakes cosmic threat in Tales of the Green Lantern Corps #1, where the Corps and Guardians face a terrifying alliance between Krona and Nekron, whose combined forces threaten to tear open the rift between life and death. Written by Mike W. Barr and Len Wein, with art by Joe Staton and Frank McLaughlin, and a striking cover by Brian Bolland, this issue sets a pulse-pounding tone for the series.
In "Defeat!", the Green Lantern Corps faces an unthinkable alliance as Krona and Nekron exploit the rift between life and death, turning every fallen warrior into a weapon. With the Guardians of the Universe already weakened and the Corps scattered, each death—whether of a Green Lantern like Stel of Grenda or a Guardian—fuels the growing threat, pushing the universe toward annihilation.
In "Triumph!", the Green Lantern Corps regroups after a crushing loss, with Hal Jordan venturing into the realm of the dead to rally the spirits of fallen Green Lanterns—among them the echoes of Tomar-Re, Abin Sur, and others—against the encroaching Nekron. With the Guardians working to seal the rift between life and death, Hal must convince the spectral warriors to stand once more, even as Krona’s army of the dead looms and the fate of the Corps hangs in the balance.
In a desperate bid to save a nomadic caravan of space-faring gypsies, Green Lantern "the Green Man" faces a difficult choice: hand over his power ring to Gretti, a young member of the group, to prevent their destruction from an anti-matter breach. With the fabric of space unraveling around them, the fate of the caravan rests on a moment of trust and sacrifice.
