Although the ring is more herculean , Hal Jordan is incapable of using it to leave Earth ’s standard pressure . As he fought Sinestro during the first arc of the currentGreen Lanternseries , he feel his hoop become supercharge by a deep source .
Later , inGreen Lantern ( 2023)#9 by Jeremy Adams and Xermánico , he go bad back to where he feel the source of the supercharge . Here , not only does he discover why he ca n’t leave Earth , buthe also finds the origin of the cryptical ring .

Hal Jordan’s Previous Green Lantern Power Ring Was Temporary
When Hal Jordan enquire the supercharge , he find out that his ring was n’t the full version of the Power Ring . alternatively , it is described as the shadow of a Power Ring . The real anchor ring is hide inside a cave . As Hal tries to charge his ring using an Oan superpower barrage , he put down his ring in the appendage .

When the Green Lantern Corps was established , humans were intended to be a nitty-gritty variance of the corps . humankind are seen as ill-affected compare to other species , so they ’re determined to be more likely to survive longterm . Therefore , spare halo and a electric battery are kept on Earth to make trusted the universe of discourse is always protected , specially by humanity . Having supernumerary rings make believe good sense ; after all , one well - planned flack could decimate the Green Lantern Corps . It ’s also likely there are extra rings somewhere off - planet in event something put down Earth .
With Hal Jordan ’s one impuissance removed , he can now return to protect the universe of discourse . With that being said , his sentence back on Earth might not be over yet . There were several other Power Rings in the cave . Kalmaku specifically enunciate there ’s enough for each member of the 2814 . If Hal Jordan were to pass out the ring , there could benew member of the Green Lantern Corps coming soonor existing characters could be getting upgrades like to Hal . GivenKyle Rayner ’s likely reintroductionintoGreen Lanterncomics , he could be receiving an raise , too — among Hal ’s other human allies .
