Great Guardians! It never dawned on me that the Ungarans wouldn't know their champion had died! They think I'm a murder!

— Green Lantern (Hal Jordan)

Green Lantern (Volume 2) #107 is an issue of the series Green Lantern (Volume 2) with a cover date of August, 1978.

Synopsis for "The Man Who Murdered Green Lantern!"

Green Arrow, Black Canary, and Air Wave fight a costumed hijacking gang at Coast City Airport. Green Lantern arrives late to lend a hand and put an end to the crooks. Afterward, he explains what kept his attention from coming earlier.

An emergency call from the Guardians commanded him to proceed to Ungara, the planet of his predecessor, Abin Sur, to avert a disaster. On his way, he sees a yellow meteor heading towards Ungara. He arrives at the planet and presents before the rulers, but they think Hal Jordan killed Abin Sur since he's wearing his suit and ring. Hal tries to explain that there's a comet coming, but they ignore him as a lier, claiming their radars haven't picked anything. While they lynch the supposed killer, the comet becomes visible. They understand they misjudge Green Lantern, and they let him help. Hal then uses the moon as a billiard ball and diverts the comet. The Ungarans offer an apology to Green Lantern, and they let him explain how did he become Abin Sur's successor. Before leaving, Hal creates a statue in honor of Abin Sur.

Synopsis for "Tales of the Green Lantern Corps"

The Mocker breaks free during his trial on Oa and attacks the Guardians. As Katma Tui confronts him, she discovers that her foe has tapped the power of her ring and the Central Power Battery. The link with the power ring causes a connection between their minds, as she sees the Mocker's past and her fears. She counterattacks by bringing up her memories, and the shock renders the Mocker insane and helpless. He then is taken under guard, not to punish but to teach him his purpose in existence.
