Owner's Description
Issue #40 is an origins issue of the Guardians, as well as featuring the Golden Age green Lantern, Alan Scott. As such, it’s a mini-key in this run. In the issue, after the telling of the Guardians’ origin Guardians warn the two Green Lanterns that they are aware that Krona is somewhere on Earth. Not wishing to be interrupted by the two heroes, Krona uses his mental powers to manipulate the Guardians to come to Earth, and demands that Hal turn his title of Green Lantern over to Alan Scott.
While Hal is shocked by this revelation, Krona takes control of Alan's body and attacks Hal with it. With Hal defeated, Krona has the Guardians brought to his hideout while the spirit of Alan Scott helps Hal track down it's location. Hal battles Krona and destroys his machine and frees the Guardians. The Guardians then banish Krona once more, and once Alan is restored to his body, the two Green Lanterns part company, Alan returning back to Earth-Two.
At one time this was a very tough-and pricey-book and this copy may have even been single highest graded, but there has been a population explosion of 9.8s here, with there now being five. We acquired the book from the November 2011 auction on CL of what was at that time the #1 Green Lantern registry set.
