The first one is a retelling of Hal Jordan origin story, the second one gives key elements that will be useful later on. Just read Green Lantern.īefore jumping into the main story, it is often recommended to start with these two books: Green Lantern: Secret Origin (2008) and DC Universe by Alan Moore (2012). I personally read the two series, but if you only want Johns’s work, you’d have to skip most of the corps series (after Recharge), the ion one, etc. Green Lantern Reading Order:įirst, you need to know that Geoff Johns didn’t write the Green Lantern Corps series, Peter Tomasi did and it was pretty good too. Since we have launched a blog dedicated to comic book reading orders, you can find an up-to-date version of this Green Lantern by Geoff Johns Reading Order here. This article will not be updated anymore. When the story began, Hal is back and dark times lie ahead. Hal joined the corps, but things got complicated and he became the vehicle for the incarnation of Fear itself. Hal Jordan became a Green Lantern when an alien crashed on Earth and gave him his ring of power (that is the simple way of telling the story). If you don’t know what the Green Lantern Corps is, it’s like the space cops of the universe.

It’s full of great characters, well-thought storylines and a lot of ambitions. Johns created a new start and expanded it in a big way that still defined it to this day. It’s a great way to enter the Green Lantern world. I didn’t really know a lot about Green Lantern, but when I started digging into what is considered must-read, the Geoff Johns run on the famous DC Comics series was often named. I pushed it away, but I finally came back to it when I read that there’ll be a new reprint next year.

When I started this blog, this reading order was one of the first on my to-do list. Affiliate disclosure: As an Amazon Associate, we may earn commissions from qualifying purchases from Amazon.
