Quick recap

Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern who destroyed the Corps and died a villain, has come back as the host of the Spectre. As strange signs appear on Earth and rings start working again, Kyle Rayner, Guy Gardner, John Stewart and Kilowog sense something ancient waking up. The truth comes out: Parallax was never Hal, but a yellow fear entity, imprisoned for ages in the Central Power Battery, that possessed him. Sinestro is behind it all. Hal is reborn, still carrying Parallax, and even clashes with the Justice League and the Justice Society. In the end, Hal masters his fear, the Lanterns beat Sinestro and lock Parallax away again, and Hal is Green Lantern once more, with the Corps ready to be reborn.
