Synopsis:

Abin Sur and Marshal Jordan head out to bring in Traitor, who has formed an alliance with Jordan's enemy Bloody Joe Tuscano. Traitor is expecting them, and manages to shoot and wound Sur with a gold-tipped bullet which can penetrate his shields. Marshal whisks the Green Lantern back to Coffin Springs, where he is given medical attention by the serving girl at the tavern.

Joe and the Traitor ride into town, forcing the citizens into hiding, and Jordan into a sniping attack on the lawless band they bring with them. The tables are soon turned, and Jordan is about to be dispatched with the aid of a Gatling gun, when Abin Sur, partially recovered from his injuries, arrives to assist Jordan in routing the villains. He is able to safely, but non-lethally, dispose of Traitor and help the townspeople to rebuild before heading off into space, telling Jordan that he is impressed with the Marshal's goodness and courage, and that he expects to see Earth spawn a Green Lantern of its own before too long.
