The Green Lantern brings us home. It seems crime is going out of control, and Police Commissioner Mason is stumped. So much so the mayor opts to have him removed from office and Lacey put in charge.
And to the new commissioner hits the ground running, being a fearless fighter against the tidal wave of terror that has swept the city.
Yeah, he's a crook. Of course, the Green Lantern was established as being active in Gotham City. Nowadays I suppose they would have mentioned this to Gordon but here it's just a city.
The Green Lantern takes a dim view on graft and wages a one-man war against the Lacey. One of his reporters gets kidnapped but GL makes the save.
And thus the first issue ends. Overall not bad but the stories were a bit short.
