Green Lantern #32

Heading into the next issue’s main event, which has already been reported to hand over the title from Hal Jordan to Kyle Rayner, meaning I’ll be giving this comic a wide birth for likely quite a long time, Green Lantern #32 offers a look at what might have been with Hal and Carol spending a night together in Paris with his plans to propose interrupted by a robbery by Cupid and separate quests for both characters pushing them, again, in different directions.

Green Lantern #30

When Hal Jordan comes to Gotham City, Green Lantern #30 offers a Green Lantern and Batman team-up. Hoping for help in whatever the Book of Oa showed him, Hal isn’t above trading a few barbs with Batman as the two bicker throughout the issue (although we do end with a few kind words from the Dark Knight Detective).

Green Lantern #28

Although the cover teases a story involving Hal Jordan and Star Sapphire, the latter only appears in the issue’s epilogue and only for a few panels foreshadowing some larger danger coming. As for Hal, we get plenty of him both on Earth tracking down and terrorizing a criminal from outer space who had planned to terraform the planet to grow a valuable crystal (regardless of what that would have done to life on Earth) and on Oa where the Green Lantern is called in after an unexpected discovery is made by Guy Gardner and Sojourner Mullein.

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight – A League for Justice #1

Obviously set within the world of Batman: Gotham by Gaslight, after an introduction by Adam Strange about Kryptonians and search for artifacts in this world (summarizing events from the Kryptonian Age mini-series) for those unfamiliar with the world, Gotham by Gaslight – A League for Justice begins with Batman, Wonder Woman, Alan Scott, and the Martian Manhunter (with the latter two having  issues with each other to work out) in a stand-off with Superman on the dirt streets of Smallville. Apparently all arriving separately, the group breaks into private squabbles with some helping Superman with the Victorian Age versions of various DC villains robbing the local bank and Batman fading into the night with what he came for.
