Synopsis for Green Lantern: "The Law"
Green Lantern convinces the two warring alien species to sign a peace treaty and end the war. Since he's wearing the symbol of the Green Lantern they idolize, they attack the "blasphemer." Still, he prevails against their attacks, and he scares the two factions into an agreement.
Later, while he leaves the planet and heads back to Earth, the two factions take advantage of their peace treaty to join forces to kill Green Lantern.
