Review from Expertscolumn.com
This issue of Green Lantern was released by DC Comics in December 1982, written by Mike W. Barr, penciled by Keith Pollard, Inked by Mike DeCarlo, Anthony Tollin on colors, Ben Oda on letters, and Ernie Colon is the editor. After a time, Evil Star makes his return. As it turns out during this issue, Evil Star has the power to warp others into his mindless minions and turn them rather evil.

Evil Star does have some intriguing powers, but half of the time, I just can’t get past his name. Evil Star’s name is rather a sticking point but I keep trying to tell myself that it was a different time in comic books. And there are some cool visual and some rather great moments throughout this issue of Green Lantern. That is one thing that I would rather enjoy with Green Lantern, as there is never a shortage of excitement, even if the depth can be all over the board.

Evil Star blotting out the stars with a big old hand for instance was one such moment of greatness.

Naturally like most villains, Evil Star has his own downfall and that his own creations appear to be a little bit too good. A point which Hal Jordan exploits for the win. And another villain is out. Very much a 1980s comic book plot of a villain having a plan, things appearing to be hopeless, the hero offering a sacrifice, and then in the end, managing to get the way out.

It won’t be rather something that will lead to anything ground breaking. As it was in this issue of Green Lantern it does its trick and really leads to an issue that while is not one that you should go out of your way to get, this issue is not devoid of any quality. And when you spend about ten minutes or whatever reading a comic book, you want to feel like your ten minutes is not wasted.

Synopsis for "The Attack Of The Star Sapphire!"
General Fabrikant gains mental control of Carol Ferris, forces her to change into Star Sapphire, and assigns her first to kill Hal Jordan, then Green Lantern.

Review from Expertscolumn.com
In this issue of Green Lantern, released in June 1980 from DC Comics, entitled “Attack of the Star Sapphire” it was written by Denny O’Neil, penciled by Joe Staton, inked by Frank McLaughlin, colored by Anthony Tollin, lettered by Todd Klein, and Jack C. Harris was the editor.

First of all, the way female characters, especially since potential love interests were written back in the day were rather interesting and different. They acted rather hostile and quite…well like a certain word that rhymes with “witch” that starts with a “b” for lack of a better term. If they acted like a fraction of that, the comic book fans on the Internet would tear them down and call for their violent and bloodshed death.

Carol Ferris always tended to be an interesting character and obviously when you run a business, you’re going to be a bit high strung and perhaps prone to fits of insanity. But there are times where she rails on poor Hal Jordan just for simply being the Green Lantern and perhaps just existing.

Of course her villainous alter ego, the Star Sapphire, back before the Star Sapphires got expanded on, is very normal person gets twisted by a psychotic alter ego. And the villain in this issue mind controlling her to kill Hal Jordan and then the Green Lantern.

The cover was interesting with Hal Jordan and Green Lantern side by side, but even more so, when it is expanded on in the issue. And the way he defeated General Fabrikant worked well. Plus the end with Hal and Carol proved that perhaps some healing could occur with their friendship (or maybe more). Perhaps, maybe, you never know.

Overall another good Green Lantern read.

"Man, that's pretty corny... except for the part that says, "Beware my power!" Mmm-hmm... I do dig those words!" - John Stewart, on the Green Lantern Oath.

Green Lantern pursues and catches a few released cars when his ring shorts out and his power abruptly disappears. He drives one of the cars and heads off the truck. He bluffs the driver into stopping threatening them with his non-functioning ring. Soon after the ring begins working again. Green Lantern asks the ring what happened but the ring cannot say. Green Lantern deduces that someone is stealing the energy and manages to get the ring to lead him to the culprit. Green Lantern enters the prison cell of Hector Hammond who reveals he has been tapping into the ring's power for months. With the energy, Hammond has been able to retrieve his mobility. He steals the rest of the ring's energy and uses it to cause the wall to form a giant stone hand grabbing Green Lantern. He mentions that he has been using the energy to search for the meteor that caused his initial transformation in hopes of evolving further into an unbeatable form. He leaves to continue the search. Green Lantern realizes that the stone hand still contains green energy residue in order to hold it's shape. He concentrates and commands the energy to open the hand. He races back to his power battery and recharges. Then he flies off after Hammond encountering him in space. The two fight and Green Lantern keeps him busy until the 24-hour charge of the stolen energy runs out. He then captures Hammond and returns him to prison. Back in the present, Green Lantern spots an airplane about to crash and he rescues the plane. Meanwhile, on Oa, the Guardians have been studying a threat - planet Omnicron Ceti IV's core is unstable and is about to explode. They decide they must summon Hal Jordan to combat the threat.

Synopsis for "No Evil Shall Escape My Sight"
Green Lantern prevents a group of street toughs from harassing an elderly man. Using his ring, he scoops the assailant up and transports him to jail. Onlookers to the incident however, including Green Arrow, show their disapproval of Green Lantern's actions. The man whom Green Lantern saved is an unscrupulous slum lord named Jubal Slade. Green Arrow gives Hal a tour of one of Slade's buildings, showing him all of the people that Slade plans on putting out into the streets after he sells the building.
After learning the truth, Hal tries to intimidate Jubal Slade, but Slade has the law on his side, and Green Lantern's threats fall on deaf ears. Enraged, Hal prepares to punch Slade, but an image of one of the Guardians appears before him, admonishing him for his conduct.

The Guardians of the Universe summon Hal back to Oa. They send him on a mission to the orbit of Saturn where he is to divert a meteor shower from striking Saturn's moon, Titan.

Back on Earth, Green Arrow tries to trick Jubal Slade into accepting a bribe. He arranges to have Slade's goons meet up with him later for a payoff. The thugs however, try to kill Green Arrow, but fail.

Having realised that the Guardians have dispatched him on a useless mission (there is no life on Titan to be endangered by the meteor shower) and they have simply sent him somewhere to cool off and think about his actions, Hal disobeys orders and returns to Earth where Green Arrow tells him about his failure to trick Slade. They find district attorney Jeremy Tine and bring him to Slade's penthouse. Disguising himself as one of Slade's goons, Hal tricks Slade into confessing to the attempted murder of Green Arrow. After Hal reveals himself, Slade tries to escape, distracting the heroes with a hand grenade. Hal dispatches the grenade and Slade is arrested.

Afterward, the Guardians admonish Hal Jordan again for abandoning his post around Titan. It is Green Arrow who rises to Hal's defense, challenging the Guardians to come down from their perch and experience what it is to live as a normal human being. The Guardians ponder the offer and send one of their own to Earth to travel with Green Lantern and Green Arrow.

Green Arrow and Green Lantern diffuse the situation and learn that the miners are being led by a man named Jacob. Jacob tells them about Slapper Soames — a land baron who has forced his way into a position of power in the small mining community and uses a personal band of armed troops to enforce his laws. Jacob tells the heroes of one of their own, a man named Johnny Walden, who inspired them to take up arms against Soames's stormtroopers. Green Arrow and Green Lantern agree to help them for fear that the angry mob will only cause harm to themselves. They break into Soames' elaborate prison system, but Green Lantern grows concerned when his ring begins behaving strangely. The Guardian sends a telepathic signal to his comrades back on Oa and learns that his fellow Guardians have restricted Hal's power levels. The heroes manage to force their way inside Soames's prison and save Johnny, but mob leader Jacob betrays them, revealing himself as one of Slapper's accomplices. They disarm Jacob and Johnny punches him in the jaw, knocking him to the floor. Disgusted by what they have seen, Green Lantern, Green Arrow and the Guardian take their leave of Desolation.

Anti-Green Lantern Corps (The Original "Black" Lanterns)

Origin
In the Anti-Matter Universe, the dark counterparts of the Guardians of the Universe were the Weaponers of Qward. This evil race after capturing a member of the Green Lantern Corps discovered that they were unable to claim the individuals power ring. Since that time, they had long sought to create their own equivalent and after a century they managed to perfect the process creating the anti-ring which had the power over the black light.
With this new weapon, they began to create their own Anti-Green Lantern Corps as these rings were capable of accomplishing the same feats that their Oan equivalent was capable of doing. However, whilst powerful, they suffered from the fact that they needed a strong will to direct them which forced the Weaponers to alter the brain capacities of their soldiers. This in turn had the unfortunate side effect of burning of their warriors and made them dependent on the rings which had a charge of only 24 hours after which they would expire along with their users.

Enemies of The Green Light
The Weaponers eventually began the next step of their operations which was kidnapping Hal Jordan at a time when he was thinking of leaving the Green Lantern Corps. This was because they wanted to examine his ring in order to perfect the Qwardians own Corps and in exchange for his help they pledged that they would spare the planet Earth. Whilst he apparently agreed with them, he worked to destroy their Power Battery but was stopped by the over two thousand Anti-Green Lanterns. He managed to ultimately escape and was rescued by Green Lantern Arisia where he explaiend to her that he had been sent undercover to ascertain the Qwardians plans. Together, they sought to escape and warn the Green Lantern Corps of this new threat.
Whilst at the portal between universes, Jordan was attacked by St'nlli, a Qwardian with the power to alter his enemies mind to evil who turned Hal Jordan against Arisia. She was ultimately saved by the other Green Lantern Corps who had tracked her since Oa and together they helped return Jordan back to normal. The Anti-Green Lantern Corps later battled one hundred Green Lanterns and during the fight it was Hal Jordan alongside Arisia as well as Katma Tui who travelled to the Qwardian's Main Power Battery where they managed to destroy it. Without its energy, the anti-power rings were powerless and the Anti-Green Lantern Corps was defeated.
