Alan Scott, a young engineer, is the only survivor of a sabotaged train wreck. He wanders away from the accident but takes with him a green lantern. It begins talking to him, telling him that it fell to Earth as a meteor hundreds of years ago, having been transformed into a Chinese lamp and then a train lantern via its green energy. Alan is the newest owner and is the one to fulfil its prophecy. Alan agrees, puts on a costume, makes a ring from the lantern, and fights crime. His ring has a 24-hour-long charge, and with it he can do anything he wants to. However, after 24-hours the charge is gone and he is powerless. Also, the ring, which can make green shapes and constructs, is vulnerable to wood.

No two copies of Double Comics are the same -- not only did the issues for each year have several different covers, you never knew which remaindered comics would be re-bound on the inside, or even which publisher they'd be from! Any kids who bought this magazine' hoping to read all about the cover hero called the Green Light instead found several other remaindered comic hero's instead! (See Double-Up & Weekender)
