Green Lantern: "Doiby Discovers Green Lantern's Identity"
Doiby has a horrible toothache and is eventually goaded into visiting the dentist by Irene saying she can't believe a big strong man like him's afraid of dentistry. His opinion isn't helped any when a patient runs out of the office groaning in pain, but when Doiby turns to try to escape as well he runs right into a pair of gangsters trying to force their way in. One of them pistol-whips Doiby unconscious, and he wakes up to find a man knifed and dying on the floor, who just has time to gasp out "Henkel accounts" before expiring. Doiby fires off a signal rocket to summon Green Lantern with all due haste, and the hero has some inkling as to what the man's dying words mean: accounts for the building laborers' union. He flies over to their headquarters and learns the man killed was Nealy, the new head of the union, and Henkel was the old union head who was just voted out, but he'll still be in office for two weeks.
Green Lantern goes to confront Henkel, but the crooked union boss's thugs hit him over the head with a vase, a non-metal that his powers don't protect him from. Henkel unmasks Green Lantern, but neither he nor any of his flunkies have ever seen Alan Scott before and don't recognize their enemy. They take the unconscious Green Lantern to a new building to blow it up and dispose of the hero in the same instant. Meanwhile Doiby decides to go confront Henkel himself, and sees Green Lantern's mask still on the floor and barges into Henkel's office. After a beating, Henkel tells the irate cabbie where his friend's been taken. Doiby arrives in time to stop the thugs and aid an awakened Green Lantern in stopping the building from being blown up. However, *he* knows who Alan Scott is and realizes the radio engineer and Green Lantern are the same person. Alan/Green Lantern accepts this change in their dynamic, but swears his sidekick to secrecy. Even better, the fight took care of Doiby's toothache: a punch to the face knocked his offending tooth out.
