zombie_trotsky's Green Lantern #76 - No Evil Shall Escape My Sight! review

    A fantastic issue of a fantastic book of fantastic importance.

    Green Lantern #76, the first issue of Denny O'Neil and Neal Adams storied run, uniting Green Lantern and Green Arrow, is perhaps the most important comic book ever written. For the first time in the medium, serious sociopolitical issues are put under the microscope and thoroughly examined through the pen of Mr. O'Neil. It does this bleeding heart well. Compared to modern times, the dialog is sometimes a little hamfisted, but for 1970, it is decades ahead of its time. The art is extraordinary for the era, and Green Arrow has never looked cooler. No artist since has really done justice to Neal Adams' Ollie.

And right outta the starting gate is a story run done by the the comic creating dynamic duo of Dennis...
