Suddenly, something crashed into Green Lantern's back. The ring automatically protected him from
attack, but even through its force field he felt the impetus of the blow. He turned to look over his
shoulder and caught a glimpse of a large stone ax as it plummeted toward the street.
A misshapen figure balanced on the flat roof of the building beyond. It was obviously humanoid, but
something about the way it held its body reminded Kyle of a great ape. Its face was covered by some
kind of horror mask with protruding fangs and bright blue light blazing from its circular eyes.
