Green Lantern

"Hal Jordan was Earth's Green Lantern--a proud hero in an even prouder tradition--but when his hometown of Coast City was destroyed, something inside him snapped. Consumed with grief and fury, he hunted down the Guardians of the Universe and their legendary Green Lantern Corps to turn back the clock. Stripping them of their power and decimating the very peoples and ideology he once served, Jordan's lust for control seemed unstoppable. The ring and legend of the Corps, however, refused to be extinguished... The lone surviving Guardian has escaped to Earth! In an act of desperation, he has bequeathed the final power ring to a young artist named Kyle Rayner. With no one to train the new bearer of the ring, Rayner will have to rely on his imagination and will to overcome the impossible odds before him. Learning to wield this great power in a trial by fire against some of the DC Universe's most powerful threats, his fate and that of the universe will ultimately be decided in a battle against Hal Jordan himself."--
