Synopsis for "A Day In His Life..."

After Rich Davis' funeral, everybody's mood is on the floor. Carol and Hal go to her beach house, where she asks to be alone, in spite of Hal's insistence to comfort her. When she enters her apartment, she finds the Predator waiting for her in the dark. The sudden visitor startles her, and Hal, hearing her scream and the noise of a falling chair from downstairs, confronts the Predator. The black-suited visitor beats Hal to a pulp, and leaves the apartment after the tearful Carol pleads him to go, not without giving her an unwanted kiss.

At Ferris Aircraft, Bruce Gordon decides to renounce, fearing that Eclipso's control over him might bring more troubles for the company. John Stewart tries to continue his works on his blueprints, but even he is discouraged by recent events. So he recharges his ring and sets looking for a way to blow off steam as Green Lantern. John finds what he's looking for in the shape of a strayed space shuttle. Green Lantern's efforts to help the astronauts only makes matters worse, and they manage to get a hold of the ship in spite of his help.

Frustrated by his inability to help, John heads to Oa and asks the Guardians to tell him who was his predecessor so he could ask him for his guidance. The Guardians, however, respect the former lantern's privacy and refuse to give him that information. Instead, they put John Stewart under the tutelage of one of the most honoured members in the Corps: Katma Tui.

Synopsis for "Forever Blowing Bubbles!"

KT21, a woman who juggles motherhood, glass-blowing, and her duties as Green Lantern, must deal with an invading warlord. When she gets to the raid location, the thieves trap her in a yellow bubble, making her ring useless. She escapes by blowing a bubble of red plastiglass, which she originally grabbed as a toy for her son, and breaks free, capturing the criminals. Back home, she surprises her son with a bunch of plastiglasses of different colors.
