When Jordan finds a powerful ring, he also finds a destiny to live up to. There are worlds beyond his own, unlike anything he ever imagined. But revelation comes with a price: the Green Lantern Corps has fallen, wiped out by ruthless killing machines known as Manhunters.

The odds against reinstating the Corps are nearly impossible…but doing the impossible is exactly what Hal Jordan was trained for!

But there is a secret origin behind the well-known story of Hal Jordan.
