Synopsis for "The Crimes of the Crumbler!"

Green Arrow confronts Hal Jordan for transporting dangerous, flammable liquid gas on his truck, saying that he'll most likely cause a disaster. Hal disregards his warnings and carry on with his job.

Elsewhere, a man calling himslef the Crumbler tests his glove weapon by making a bridge vanish, which causes a bulldozer to tumble down the hill and collide with Hal's truck. Hal switches to Green Lantern and saves the truck encasing it in a force field. Moments later, the Crumbler uses his powers to cause a tree to fall onto Green Lantern, causing a head injury, and then.

Black Canary and Green Arrow hear of the accident, head there to investigate. At he scene, they meet Alexander Percy Tuttle, who informs them they are building a vacation village. While Canary talks to the construction crew, Arrow goes to the hospital to see Lantern. Outside, Arrow spots the Crumbler and attacks him, but the foe escapes, so Arrow decides to return to the construction site. However, at that instant, Green Lantern wakes up and tries to warn them that the force field around his truck might vanish at any moment, causing a disaster. But he's too weak, and he keeps falling unconscious.

At the construction site, Canary hears rumors that Tuttle's company is going bankrupt. Tuttle appears and sends his men to get the heroes out of his property. He accidentally reveals himself as the Crumbler when he mentions the destruction at the hospital. He explains he's been causing disasters on his properties to earn the insurance money. When the Crumbler is about to attack them, a woozy Green Lantern appears and warns everyone that the force field around the tanker is about to fade. Arrow snuffs out the closest fire before it could ignite the gas. After that, they discover the Crumbler has escaped, and they take Green Lantern to the hospital again.
