Art credits per Craig Delich. We previously credited the art to Mart Nodell. Credits in Golden Age Green Lantern Archives are wrong. Doiby uses a green signal flare to summon the Green Lantern. Oddities: This is the only story in which a criminal successfully unmasks Green Lantern. Also, artist Hasen omits the yellow straps to Green Lantern's boots throughout the story.
