Green Lantern: Emerald Knights Page #2

Synopsis: On Oa, the headquarters planet of the intergalactic police force, the Green Lantern Corps, the Guardians of the Universe see alarming evidence that the feared villain, Krona, is coming to destroy the planet. While the Guardians move to evacuate, Green Lantern Hal Jordan helps the unsure new recruit, Arisia, by telling her several stories of fellow Lanterns and the challenges they faced. Through him, we see the adventures of Avra the first Lantern, Princess Laira, Kilowog, the unsociable Mogo and Jordan's immediate predecessor, Abin Sur. When Krona arrives, those stories prove more valuable than anyone expects as Arisia draws a special inspiration from them.

For anyone.

WACHET:

These rings are useless.

We might as well be wearing trinkets.

What do we do?

We have only two options:

Retreat or death.

There is no victory here.

WACHET:

Retreat it is, then.

Go. I'll cover your escape.

HAL:

And the first Lantern saw...

... and would not run.

AVRA:

Wait.

The Guardians forged these rings

from will.

Will can do more than pave our retreat.

Will is the first cause behind any action.

We must will our survival.

You're commended for your faith

in the Guardians, Avra...

...but this is a failed endeavor.

You'll die.

So be it.

I choose to believe in the Guardians.

This is battle, Avra. It's real.

It's not one of your books

where you can invent the outcome.

He's dead.

[EXPLOSIONS]

[GROANING]

AVRA:

The Guardians forged these rings from will.

We must will our survival.

[YELLS]

WACHET:

By the stars.

HAL:

He held his first construct.

No longer a scribe...

... now a warrior.

The first Lantern.

[GRUNTING]

[GROANS]

[GRUNTS]

HAL:

This was the beginning.

In time, the first of the rings

would be passed on...

... while a hundred more were forged...

... and then...

... thousands.

All would be taught

as the first Lantern had learned.

A new path to victory.

A use for the ring

that even the Guardians had not predicted.

In time, old Lanterns would fall...

... their rings given to the new,

to learn as they did.

Even Avra would fall...

... his ring given to one

who would be taught his lessons...

... and would one day teach them.

What was once a unique innovation

became the way for all.

The way of will.

Know then, when you shape the light

of your ring...

... you walk in the footsteps

of the first Lantern.

Believe me,

they each have quite a history.

HAL:
In brightest day...

- Come on, missy. It ain't a wedding ring.

HAL:
Let those who worship evil's might...

- Right, sorry.

Green Lantern's light

In brightest day, in blackest night

No evil shall escape my sight

- She the new one?

- Arisia...

...meet Kilowog,

our kindly drill instructor.

Hello.

- First combat?

- Yes.

Don't worry, rookie. This ain't gonna be

half as bad as boot camp.

In brightest day, in blackest night

No evil shall escape my sight

I've heard of Kilowog.

What horror stories did they tell you?

I heard someone got killed

training with him.

[HAL LAUGHS]

Don't believe everything.

Kilowog has some rough edges,

but he's a cakewalk compared to Deegan.

Deegan?

That's Sergeant Deegan to you, poozer!

You know what a poozer is,

don't you, poozer?

- No, sir.

DEEGAN:
I can't hear you!

No, sir!

Poozers are what I call useless,

stupid, stinking rookies...
