Blackest Night Omnibus 10th Anniversary collects DC's complete cosmic horror event in one 1664-page hardcover: the Black Lanterns rise, the emotional spectrum reaches crisis point, and Geoff Johns' Green Lantern era becomes a line-wide DC event. This edition is built for readers who want the main series, Green Lantern chapters and tie-in story material together without hunting scattered trades, with Ivan Reis, Doug Mahnke and Patrick Gleason giving the event the oversized superhero-horror scale it needs.

Green Lantern by Geoff Johns Omnibus Vol. 3 closes Johns' long Lantern architecture with War of the Green Lanterns, Sinestro's impossible return to the Corps and the road into the New 52. Its value is resolution: Hal, Sinestro, the Guardians and the emotional spectrum all reach the point where the mythology has to break, reset or transform.

Blackest Night in full: after years of building the emotional Lantern spectrum (green will, yellow fear, red rage, violet love, blue hope), Johns introduces an eighth colour: the black of death. Black Hand awakens DC's dead as Black Lanterns. Most visually iconic event of the modern Green Lantern and peak of the Johns run.

Green Lantern by Geoff Johns Omnibus Vol. 1 is the modern rehabilitation of Hal Jordan and the launchpad for the emotional spectrum era. Rebirth brings Hal back, Sinestro Corps War expands the conflict and the Corps becomes cosmic mythology again. Ethan Van Sciver, Ivan Reis and Carlos Pacheco help define the visual scale, while Johns builds the architecture that leads toward Blackest Night.

Green Lantern by Robert Venditti Omnibus Vol. 1 is the difficult post-Geoff Johns handoff, and that story material matters. Venditti inherits Hal Jordan, the Corps, Relic and the emotional fallout of a mythos that had just been rebuilt. The book is about Hal learning to lead under cosmic pressure, with Billy Tan and the wider art team giving the New 52 era a sharper, more militarised space-opera feel.
