Green Lantern 1960 #127 - back issue - $5.00
The Corps are flying through space towards the reader.
Though imprisoned within the central Power Battery, the Guardians summon the Green Lantern Corps and help Hal Jordan to break out of the battery. Several Green Lanterns die in the Weaponers' attack, but Sinestro helps the Green Lanterns after his ego is deeply bruised by the Weaponers, and the remaining Green Lanterns defeat the Weaponers.
The only way Wonder Woman can stop The Borrower long enough to capture him is to set out some Twinkies so he takes a snack break.
Flash has taken to wearing a crown since he defeated the Royal Flush Gang.
On-sale date from Comic Reader #176.

- Battleground: Oa! - Conclusion of the Power War. In the letter column of Green Lantern #133, editor Jack C. Harris notes that the Xudarian Green Lantern in "Battleground: Oa!" is not Tomar-Re, as Tomar-Re resigned his commission some time back in a Superman Story. He promises a future story to name the new Green Lantern. However, I have never found such a story and Tomar-Re was still fighting with the Green Lanterns during the original Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline. Therefore, I have listed him as the character here, though he is unnamed in the story.
