Great stuff...!! September 26, 2008
I started reading comic books at the tail end of the Silver Age (mostly Marvel, but some DC) and have recently been re-exploring some of my old favorites, particularly through great reissue efforts such as the DC Archives series. Generally, the results have been disappointing, but these early adventures of the Silver Age Green Lantern are the happy exception to the rule: they are fantastic! A wonderful mix of sci-fi and superhero action, they feature fun, engaging plotlines and wonderful, draftsmanlike art. Many other vintage super-books are, sadly, perhaps not worth revisiting, but the old Hal Jordan-era GL is still as fun and dynamic as it was, all those decades ago in the early 1960s. Highly recommended! (Joe Sixpack, ReadThatAgain book reviews)

Excellent reading. Considering what NASA is now working
on; (The X-43A); I'll say these guys were definitely
visionaries in 1962, with a manned flight of an X-50.
Warner Brothers, It's time for the Green Lantern!

The second volume of the sect starts reprints from Issue 6.We see the Green Lantern Corps for the first time, an involved story of the Guardians and GL's greatest foe Sinestro. Plenty of Kane and Fox what more can anyone ask?
Excellent! April 17, 2000

Green Lantern has always been an interesting member of the 'super hero' group by DC. As a boy, I used to look forward to the Justice League of America comic to see him in action. Later, when I discovered he had his own title, I began to buy it as well. The character is uniquely human has an interesting story thread -- the mysterious guardians at OA, Sinestro (the renegade green lantern), Carol Ferris, and so on. Like The Flash, many of the characters come back for encores and give readers something they're familiar with - something to come home to. This book, volume two in the GL series, is a fine addition to the growing DC Archive collection. Nicely hard bound, it consists of 222 full color pages on quality paper featuring 14 complete adventures of the Silver Age Green Lantern. Features in this volume are the origin of Sinestro, how Green Lantern came up with his oath, and a battle between GL and the Flash. Great stories all. If you enjoyed the Silver Age of DC comics -- if you liked the exploits of Green Lantern -- if you like well-done stories (for a comic book), this book will not disappoint you. It makes a fine addition to the first volume of the series. I hope they make a third. The rest of the oath? .... no evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evil's might, Beware my power, Green Lantern's light. ~Paul~
