bensanazThe Green Lantern story in this issue of Action Comics Weekly revolved around Hal Jordan having a near-death experience and the ring freezing time while he chooses his successor. During this time, an argument on the merits of clinging to life emerges between Deadman (who was possessing one of the candidates at the time) and Clark Kent (another of the candidates who *ahem* found himself mysteriously accelerated to the pace of the "frozen moment".) Hal makes his decision, all the candidates are transported back to the place and moment they came from, some other stuff happens.
( Boston Brand won't let an argument go, though. )

arbre_rieur.insanejournal.comWe all know that Hal Jordan was chosen to become Green Lantern because the power ring found him to be most worthy of all the inhabitants of Earth. In this story from Action Comics Weekly, however, we meet the other ten individuals who the ring considered before settling on Jordan, including the one who was deemed worthier than Jordan and chosen ahead of him. (Guy Gardner and John Stewart were two of ten, obviously.)
kagome654.insanejournal.comIn my last post I left John in a bit of a tough spot, imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. I figured it wasn't really fair to leave him hanging and I ought to post how that entire mess was resolved...and I will. Eventually.
I thought it was important that I first establish how exactly he ended up in that situation. It's a tale of dickery, theft, torture and one of the most blatant and indefensible cases of WiR imaginable.
