Synopsis for "Alienated"

This story is reprinted from Green Lantern (Volume 4) #4.

Outside Coast City, two soldiers are driving along the road, late at night, and run down a little grey alien. As the two soldiers look at it, the alien dies, saying that it just went out for a cigarette.

Hal Jordan observes the recreation of the Green Lantern Corps with Kilowog, the chief trainer of the Corps. Kilowog explains that after Parallax was defeated, Ganthet accelerated the infant Guardians of the Universe to adulthood. They then locked themselves in the Citadel, making new Power Rings, and talking to Kilowog via his ring. The rings began sector scans four days earlier, and haven't stopped since. Several veterans will be re-invited to join, but the majority of the Green Lantern Corps will be newcomers. For old times sake, Hal and Kilowog engage in a hand-to-hand sparring match in a mud marsh, but Hal is distracted by a telepathic voice. His ring intercepts a call to his home phone on Earth: General Stone needs Green Lantern's help.

Hal arrives and scans the alien, discovering it is not an alien at all, but an evolved human. Stone receives a call from Belle Reve: Hector Hammond wants to talk to Green Lantern about the body.

Hal visits Hammond's cell, demanding to know who is responsible for the evolution. Hammond was evolved under similar circumstances, but is unwilling to talk without experiencing some of Jordan's memories. Hal allows this, but Hammond goes too far and steals too many memories, prompting Hal to beat him. Hammond admits that all he knows is that they are aliens performing experiments and they are in Coast City now.

Meanwhile, a newly mutated Shark emerges from the water and devours a couple.

Synopsis for "Flight"

This story is reprinted from Green Lantern Secret Files and Origins 2005.

Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner use their rings to fly to Edwards Air Force Base. On the way, Hal remembers back to his childhood. Every morning before school, he snuck onto the base to watch his father pilot a jet overhead. Hal's mother disapproved, so they finally had to stop. A few nights later, Hal's father brought him to the base for a plane ride together.

Years later, Hal and Carol Ferris flew in a plane together while on a date. It was her first time back in the air since her father's heart attack required her to manage the company. She and Hal kissed after landing.

In the present, Hal and Kyle arrive at the base. Hal takes him up for a jet ride so that Kyle can experience the thrill of flying without a ring.
