Story Featuring Green Lantern
"They whipped the Green Lantern-- --Now let 'em try me!"
When Guy Gardner is injured, the Guardians of the Universe instruct Hal Jordan to train another back-up, but John Stewart has different ideas about how to be a Lantern. When an attempt is seemingly made on the life of racist politician Jeremiah Clutcher, John Stewart figures out that the attack was faked and part of a cynical plot to get Clutcher elected president.
Story Featuring Green Arrow
After Green Arrow witnesses the death of a young boy in a riot, he decides that he might be able to do more for his city as its mayor.
This is Maggin's first professional script. The splash page (page 2) is shot directly from Neal Adams's pencils as he handed it in too late for inking. (Source: Man of Two Worlds by Julius Schwartz and Brian M. Thomsen, page 128).
Hal Jordan explains to Pieface why Abin Sur came to Earth in a spaceship when all Green Lanterns can travel thru space unaided.
Some sources have incorrectly credited the inking to Joe Giella, but Murphy Anderson inks confirmed by Bob Bailey, Bob Hughes, David Bachman, and Julius Schwartz's editorial records, provided by DC Comics. Recap of how Hal Jordan got his power ring.
