A member of the Black Hawks is in Germany in an effort to locate a Nazi super weapon, however all they find a basement full of bodies, feathers,a broken spear and an old green lantern. The Black hawk and his companion then leave the German bunker, with the companion keeping the lantern for himself. The story then flashes to the present day as Clark Kent works at his desk in the Daily Planet when Hal Jordan comes asking to speak to him for advice. However as the two depart Clark is roped into attending a museum opening for Lois Lane.
The two of them then go through the park where Hal confesses his loneliness due to the state of the corps and his personal life.However they are interrupted as a group attempts to mug them,which the two easily dispatch as they continue to the museum.At the museum Hal Jordan runs into Selina Kyle,who promptly excuses herself from conversation with him.
The two then continue around the museum finding the ancient lantern on display, much to Hal's amazement that is still exists.
Jordan then changes into costume as he prepares to test the lantern by doing a recharge with it,which causes a blast of green energy knocking Clark and Hal backwards.The two then awaken in a new place where they meet Deadman who informs the heroes they're dead before being stopped from flying off by Superman. Hal then decides to attempt to command his ring to return them to their bodies as they disappear before Deadman's eyes.While elsewhere the Phantom Stranger prepares to leave the apartment he's stayed in, despite the Lords of Order's protests as he disappears. While elsewhere Green Lantern and Superman awaken to find themselves in hell,confronted by a rhyming demon before Hal attempts to use his ring to get them out.
While back on Earth the Phantom Stranger arrives to the museum, easily passing through the mental barrier set up by Green Lantern into the wing holding the power battery.The two then awaken in the presence of gigantic green flame which speaks to Hal, which tells him he will become a slave of the lamp. However the Phantom Stranger then arrives and give Hal the hint as he recites Alan Scott's oath. The Stranger then takes the lamp with him,as Hal returns their souls to their bodies. The two then continue their conversation as Hal tells Superman his perspectives changed, and Superman agrees to always be their for him when needed.
