Green Lantern: John Stewart - A Celebration of 50 Years

Summary

Created by comic book legends Dennis O Neil and Neal Adams, John Stewart changed both DC s fictional universe and the comics industry itself. Introduced as a substitute for Hal Jordan, DC s primary Green Lantern, John Stewart was DC s first Black superhero, and over the years grew from a back-up player to a main character and arguably the most recognisable Green Lantern. Stewart starred in the Green Lantern series for a time and later his own series, Green Lantern: Mosaic, and was featured in other media adaptations including the beloved Justice League cartoon. Fifty years following John Stewart s debut, this collection highlights the character s greatest moments over the decades both space-faring and Earth-bound from his first appearance in the legendary O Neil/Adams Green Lantern run, to taking over from Hal Jordan as Earth s Green Lantern, and being rechristened as the first mortal Guardian of the Universe. This volume includes Green Lantern Vol. 2 #87, #182, #185, Green Lantern Vol. 3 #74, #156, Green Lantern Vol. 4 #49, Green Lantern: Mosaic #18, and Justice League of America #110.
