Story Notes
Oddity: Scott's first name is spelled as "Allan" twice at the beginning of the story. Most likely an error on behalf of the letterer. When GL hits a crook on the jaw, his ring leaves behind a tiny "green lantern" emblem. Doiby is stated as being APEX Broadcasting's official taxi driver. Artist Hasen pictures G.L. with green flames about him as he flies. G.L. uses his ring to hypnotize a crook to get him to tell the truth.
