#0001 -- Rebirth: Green Lanterns
Somewhere in the universe a Guardian of the Universe is pursued by the Dominators, he carries a large mysterious box in his arms. He does all he can to escape but he eventually is surround and gives into his fear and opens the box releasing a great power.

In Dearborn, Michigan, newly appointed Sector 2814 ambassador of the Green Lanterns, Simon Baz is still dealing with the aftermath of the events that led to him being labelled a terrorist as he scrubs graffiti off of his home. But all the sudden his ring gives him a warning of an unidentified ship has crashed, so he heads off to investigate. Elsewhere in  Portland, Oregon, newly appointed Green Lantern Jessica Cruz is still trying to figure out how to live the life of a Lantern and the trauma she went through after being possessed by Volthoom. While she is out on the town, she gets the same warning Simon received and heads off to investigate as well.

As they both arrive in the dessert of Arizona, they are both shocked to see that there is another Lantern protecting this sector. As the talk the unidentified ship blows up and a Manhunter emerges. They both begin to bicker about how should attack and once they engage they both get beat hard, when all the sudden the Manhunter shuts down and Hal Jordan appears. Hal explains to them that he did this as a test to see how they would do as a team, but they failed. He makes them both give him their Power Batteries and he merges them into one single Power Battery. Hal explains that he can't help them defend Sector 2814, as he has bigger Green Lantern Corp business to deal with, and that he now must work together to defend the sector while he is away. As he heads off he tells them that if they need help, the Justice League will be there to help in whatever way they can.

Elsewhere on Ysmault, the Red Lanterns prepare to attack Earth.
