The secrets of Green Lantern's future are buried in his past, as this must-read story from Geoff Johns and Ivan Reis returns to print!

Before he became the greatest Green Lantern. Before he unwittingly brought about the downfall of the Green Lantern Corps. Before his rebirth as the universe’s most powerful protector, Hal Jordan of Earth was just a washed-up test pilot with no way to fly…until the dying alien Abin Sur granted him his power ring, the most powerful weapon in the universe—and his entry into a reality he never could have imagined.

But there is a secret origin behind the well-known story of Hal Jordan. And as Hal and his superior, the Green Lantern Sinestro, investigate Abin’s death, they find themselves on the trail of a powerful and murderous creature who holds the knowledge of the darkest secrets of the Guardians of the Universe—and the hidden prophecy that threatens to end all life as we know it.

The acclaimed team behind Blackest Night writer Geoff Johns and artist Ivan Reis, explores the hidden past of the Green Lantern Corps to sow the seeds of the greatest Green Lantern story ever told!
