Synopsis

Crooked lawyer Elias Strake convinces Cub Brenner to pose as the long-lost son of the Blakes in order to steal their fortune. But when Alan Scott hears Strake was involved in the reunion, he investigates as Green Lantern. When Cub has a change of heart, GL helps him turn the tables on Strake and confess his crimes. But the Blakes refuse to press charges against Cub because he really is their son Tommy Blake, as they confirmed from his scarred and mis-shapened hand.
