Secret Origins (1986) 7 (1)

Secret Origins (1986) 7
Oct 1986

The Secret Origin of Green Lantern
by Steve Englehart, Ernie Colón, Rodin Rodriguez, Anthony Tollin, Agustin Más, Robert Greenberger

This story attempts to explain why Guy Gardener was the way he was in 1986. He wasn’t always an angry individual. The blame seems to be placed mostly on Hal Jordan’s shoulders (in the eyes of Guy Gardener) despite the fact that he and Guy were friends when they first met.

John Stewart only shows up in this story briefly. Most if not all of his encounters with Guy Gardener (prior to this issue) happened in the early 1980s.
