GREEN LANTERN VOLUME 1: SINESTRO REBIRTH  HARDCOVER
Following the events of War of the Green Lanterns, Hal Jordan is suspended from the Green Lantern Corps while Sinestro unwillingly returns as a Green Lantern. The Guardians believe Sinestro received the ring as a chance for redemption and protect his sector. He heads towards his homeworld to find it enslaved by his own Sinestro Corps. Meanwhile Hal Jordan adjusts to his life on Earth while everything falls apart as Sinestro offers a chance to become a Green Lantern once more.

On Oa the Guardians of the Universe remove Ganthet’s emotions so he will be able to vote for the rest of his fellow Guardians. Both the Manhunters and the Green Lantern Corps failed the Guardians of the Universe. Now it is time to create the third army to protect and patrol the universe.
