Green Lantern Vol 1: Back in Action TPB Xermanico Cover – DC Comics

In-Store Date: June 4, 2024

Green Lantern Vol 1: Back in Action collects the first arc of the 2023 Green Lantern relaunch from DC Comics, and this is the Book Market edition featuring the Xermanico cover, a distinct cover from the Ivan Reis direct-market version.

Written by Jeremy Adams with art by Xermanico and colors by Romulo Fajardo Jr., the story opens after Dark Crisis with Earth's sector cut off from the rest of the universe by the Guardians of Oa. Hal Jordan comes home reeling from a devastating personal loss, hunting Sinestro, the man he blames for wrecking his life, and figuring out what a Green Lantern does when the Corps won't answer. It is a story about redemption, family, and whether you really can go home again, provided you're willing to hot-wire a power ring to get there.

This trade paperback collects Green Lantern #1 through #6 plus Knight Terrors: Green Lantern #1 and #2, with the Alex Segura co-written backups. Xermanico's art is some of the best of his career, and the Book Market cover puts his Hal Jordan front and center rather than the Reis image most comic shops stocked.

A great pick for Green Lantern collectors who want both cover editions, fans of Jeremy Adams' Flash run, and readers jumping onto the current Dawn of DC era. New and unread.
