The Emerald Dawn

The Emerald Dawn is a comic book limited series that retells the origins of Hal Jordan and his transformation into a Green Lantern in post-Crisis continuity. Created by Keith Giffen and Gerard Jones, with the first issue written by Jim Owsley, this series explores Jordan's early days as a superhero.

A sequel, Emerald Dawn II, published from April to September 1991, delves into Jordan's 90-day jail sentence and his training under Sinestro. These stories have been collected in various trade paperbacks, including a 2017 volume that compiles both series in chronological order.
