Item Description

GREEN LANTERN/GREEN ARROW #84 hit newsstands in the Summer of 1971, in the wake of GL's ground-breaking issue #75 , in which Denny O'Neil and Neal Adams opened the door to realism in comics with their 'Hard- Travelling Heroes' arc. GL and GA made perfect foils/teammates in the stories to come!
 
Here you get "Peril in Plastic", wherein CAROL FERRIS stops at Piper's Dell, just as the sea wall protecting the town begins to give way, so HAL JORDAN responds as GREEN LANTERN. After saving the town, GL is given a tour of the plastic factory. Weakened by gas emitted by the plastic pins produced there, he is unable to fight back, so he sends his ring to GREEN ARROW.

When he revives, he finds that his old enemy BLACK HAND uses the pins (called kaluta pins in honor of DC artist Michael Kaluta) to keep the community under his control. He sends GL and CAROL out into the streets to face the wrath of the townspeople, but GREEN ARROW arrives in time with GL’s ring, and GL traps BLACK HAND in his own plastic.

Great Neal Adams artwork, as usual, with the bonus of superb inking by Bernie Wrightson!

This is a great-looking 55-year old GREEN LANTERN -- no creases, tears, pieces missing, or abnormal toning. The binding is strong, and the colors are bright! We conservatively give this a grading of 8.0 VF. . . which The Overstreet Price Guide values at $59 . . . but we're pricing it at just $46.

In Brightest Day . . get the best of O'Neill and Adams in one terrific bargain, or you'll find yourself . . In Blackest Night!
