Although I was already aware of superhero comics through casual exposure to Superman, Batman, Fly, Jaguar and Captain Atom, it was Green Lantern who truly sparked a lifelong interest/fascination with comics for me. The specific issue was Green Lantern #11 which I read at a friend's house. My impressionable young mind was drawn by the sense of interstellar mystery that pervaded the comic book. Finding that Green Lantern was a part of the Justice League in JLA #8 at summer camp a month later prompted me to actually buy my first superhero comic, JLA #14, as soon as I got back home. The Green Lantern #24 that I bought a year later remains perhaps my favourite comic cover of all time.

 

I'm still trying to complete a run off Green Lanterns up to my quality standards. I'm missing Showcase 23 and Green Lanterns 4 6 14 15 47. (I am, of course, driving myself crazy by constantly finding flaws in copies with which I was perfectly satisfied ten years ago....)
