Summary: GL's light
Review: A bit of nostalgia, hardbound and reasonably priced. Read all the stories as a youngster and was just as enchanted by the skill of the writer and the marvelous art work of Gil Kane (may he rest in peace) even as a middle-aged physician.
Anyone who loved DC and the silver age of comics in the early 60's and was mesmerized by the possibility of space travel, life on other worlds, speeds faster than light, or the ability to shrink to submicroscopic size should buy the entire collection

Summary: Beware his power!
Review: Green Lantern - arguably as powerful as Superman but back in the 1960s perhaps one of the more unsung super-heroes - returns in his earliest Silver Age adventures! Nobody did it better than John Broome and Gil Kane - the heroes, allies and villians are - out of this world!This is one of only a handful of Silver Age archives in print right now - many of the others, especially those for Superman and Batman, showcase Golden Age stories. While these are classics, it is the Silver Age where comics really blossomed, and Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) is a prime example. The Green Lantern archives published to date (#1-3) contain hard-to-find (and expensive!) issues of Hal Jordan's earliest exploits, including origins and battles with his yellow power-ringed arch enemy Sinestro, Hector Hammond and others, plus his classic, colorful and extraordinary team-ups with The Fastest Man Alive - Flash (Barry Allen). This is a must-buy, must-own and must-read series for any serious fan of the Silver Age - or comics in general. Good reading for those darkest days and blackest nights!

Summary: I'm very pleased that they finally did this.
Review: I've always been a huge GLC fan but I was unable to find the original 60s Hal Jordan comics, sure i seen a few here and there but never all together like this. I must say that if you like green lantern it's a must buy, especially if you think as I do and that dc and the writters spit on the greatness that was Hal jordan.

Summary: This has movie written all over it...
Review: John Broome and Gil Kane pretty much mapped out the world of GL through these stories. The GL corps, the Guardians, Hal's origin with getting the power ring, the first battle with Sinestro. It's all in here. Would make a great movie.

Summary: Classic stuff
Review: The first volume of the Green Lantern Archives is delightful stuff. Great sci-fi adventures, with terrific art by the late Gil Kane. I wasn't a Hal Jordon fan before I read this, but now I'm rethinking my position. My only real grumble is that, aside from Hector Hammond, the really good GL villains aren't on display. But you have to start somewhere. If you've never really dug on GL before, give this a shot. It's worth it.

Summary: Comics as they should be
Review: The first Volume reprinting the Hal Jordan Green Lantern series. As the issues are not affordable this is just the way to enjoy the old stories that we all loved. Some Classic stories here including the first Hector Harmond and the first glimpse of the Guardians of the Universe. Far and away better than the current series both story and art. Looking forward to future issue featuring Alan Scott crossovers.

Summary: A beautiful collection
Review: The Green Lantern Archives Vol. 1 is a beautiful, affordable collection of the impossible to find Silver Age origins of the second Green Lantern of Earth, Hal Jordan. Seeing Hal's earliest adventures shown in this way is a good introduction of his character and his supporting cast. At a time when Hal is resurfacing in DC continuity (he's been dead two years, his Lantern status revoked for 5) in Green Lantern (with the current GL), Legends of the DCU, Green Arrow, JLA: Year One, and Brave and the Bold, this volume is even more of a must-read for new and old fans alike. I look forward to seeing any further offerings from DC involving any of the Green Lanterns and the GL Corps.

Summary: Wonderful
Review: This book brings back such pleasant memories of Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern series as it used to be. Given the hack job and butchery that have been done to the character in the 1990s, archival editions like this remain our only resource to the way the classic character truly was. Buy it and savor it.
