Most of the story is taken up by a dream sequence of Carrol, convinced that Hal and Green Lantern are the same person. A car wreck knocks her out, leaving Hal free to investigate. What does he find?
Seems some scientists were messing around with cosmic radiation, as you do, and accidently created a giant monster. The text refers to it as a blob, but it sports a vague chicken like head. The blob easily smacks Hal away but after a point he figures out that a creature that is apparently feeding off of radiation, so why not cut it off from its' feed source?
Which works great and causes the blob to shrink into a puddle.
Ok, and we do see some quick thinking on Hal's part. The 'Carrol is convinced Hal is GL' is already starting to wear out it's welcome
