It was wonderful to see the first stories ever to show the original Green Lantern. Gotta love that costume, particulary odd looking when he is trying to hide in the shadows with that gaudy delight of an outfit.
The art is primitive and generally unimaginative and the stories also show as little imagination, at the beginning at least. They do grow a little more imaginative in the portrayal of the use of his power (generally underused considering what he must have been capable of doing). He needed a powerful and interesting villain, or two. Adding Doiby Dickles seemed to help spice up the stories, though.
It was still wonderful reading these stories as I had never seen a story with the original Green Lantern before the 1960's, outside of his adventures alongside the Justice Society of America. An interesting selection for the DC Archives Series.
