Mezigalaktická policie stvořená nejstaršími bytostmi veškerého jsoucna, Strážci vesmíru, si vybrala do svého středu pilota Hala Jordana. Neohrožený Pozemšťan nyní chrání Zemi i celý vesmírný sektor 2814 před všemožnými mimozemskými hrozbami a hrdě je zahání světlem Green Lanternů! Ve svém nekonečném boji proti zlu se Green Lantern neohlíží na hranice. Zásady mezinárodního práva ho nezajímají - a tak když na něj někdo navlékne vraždu právě ve chvíli, kdy narušuje vzdušný prostor Ruska, stává se stíhaným zločincem. Smaragdový bojovník hodlá svá jméno očistit, ale je na to sám - a ve stínech se už shromažďují mnozí staří nepřátelé i zapomenuté tváře z minulosti, aby si s ním vyřídili účty. GREEN LANTERN #16 Původně vyšlo v říjnu 1962 Soukromý tryskáč Carol Ferrisové se nevrátil a Hal Jordan už o ni má strach.

      The most famous of all the Green Lanterns, Hal Jordan put on the Lantern’s ring for the first time in 1959. Reinvented from the original 1940s crime-fighting Green Lantern by John Broome, this new Green Lantern was a science-fiction adventurer. He battled aliens, giant monsters and wealthy sociopaths out to steal his ring, and fended off the efforts of his love, Carol Ferris, to discover his true identity. As the Green Lantern of the Silver Age of comic books, Hal Jordan captured the imagination of a space-minded society of the ’50s and ’60s. GREEN LANTERN: THE SILVER AGE VOLUME 2 collects the adventures of Hal Jordan as he takes on the responsibility of the ring and the lantern in GREEN LANTERN #10-22.
