Inker
The inker (sometimes credited as the finisher or embellisher) is one of the two line artists in traditional comic book production. After the penciller creates a drawing with pencil, the inker interprets this drawing by outlining and embellishing it with a pencil, an ink pen or a brush with black ink.

This third volume ended publication in 2004, when the miniseries ''Green Lantern: Rebirth'' brought Hal Jordan back as a heroic character and made him ...
