During this period, they slowly evolve into their current appearance.Ī Green Lantern's only weakness is the yellow energy of fear, opposite to the green energy of will. Relocating to the planet Oa at "the center of the universe", the Guardians dedicate themselves to combatting evil and creating an orderly universe. The females, however, see no need to involve themselves and, since the Oans are by then immortal and have no longer need to reproduce, leave their mates and become known as the Zamarons, later founding the Star Sapphires. Later a single male Guardian becomes the Pale Bishop and founds The Paling, an anti-emotion faith. One group decides to dedicate their eternal existences to contain evil this group fractures into the Guardians of the Universe and the Controllers. The male Maltusians argued about how to deal with the situation. Soon after, it is decided that the emotional spectrum is at present too dangerous to wield. Future Guardian Rami uses the pieces of the Travel Lantern to create the first seven green lantern rings and imprison the First Lantern Volthoom. The future guardians destroy his Travel Lantern further escalating the situation. Volthoom receives this ring and has the Great Heart implanted in his chest, but controlling the whole emotional spectrum makes him dangerous. Through working with Volthoom, the future Guardians shed their emotions into the Great Heart and inadvertently create the First Ring. He brings with him the Travel Lantern, powered by the Emotional Spectrum. Krona's experiment also draws Volthoom, a traveler from the multiverse looking to save his Earth. During this period, they also changed to their current appearance. Their goal was simple: combat evil and create an orderly universe, and they acted quickly on that goal. Following the retroactive destruction of the Multiverse, it is revealed that Krona flooded the beginning of the universe with entropy causing it "to be born old".įeeling responsible for this, some of the Maltusians relocated to the planet Oa (at "the center of the Universe") and became the Guardians of the Universe. Originally, the experiment splinters the universe into the multiverse and creates the evil antimatter universe. However, this test unleashes disaster upon all existence. In a pivotal moment billions of years ago, a Maltusian named Krona uses time-bending technology to observe the beginning of the universe. They become scientists and thinkers, experimenting on the worlds around them. At this time, they are short greyish blue humanoids with black hair. The Guardians of the Universe are one of several races that originated on the planet Maltus and are among the first intelligent life forms in the universe. Over the years, writers have introduced a large cast of Green Lanterns in both supporting and starring roles.įictional group history Guardians The group is first mentioned in Showcase #22 (1960) when a dying Green Lantern passes on his ring to Hal Jordan. Whereas the Green Lantern of the 1940s was a lone vigilante who only had adventures on Earth, the new Green Lantern was but one of a group of interstellar lawmen who all called themselves Green Lanterns. Schwartz's new conception of Green Lantern had a different name ( Hal Jordan), costume, and origin story, and no connection to the original Green Lantern. In 1959, during a revival of the popularity of superhero comics in America, DC Comics' editor Julius Schwartz decided to reinvent the 1940s superhero character Green Lantern as a science fiction hero. Each Green Lantern is given a power ring, a weapon granting the use of incredible abilities that are directed by the wearer's own willpower. Currently operating amongst the 3600 "sectors" of the universe, there are 7204 members (known commonly as Green Lanterns). According to DC continuity, the Green Lantern Corps have been in existence for three billion years. They patrol the farthest reaches of the DC Universe at the behest of the Guardians, a race of immortals residing on the planet Oa. Green Lantern Corps is the name of a fictional intergalactic law enforcement organization appearing in comics published by DC Comics. Art by Phil Jimenez (penciler and inks), Tom McCraw (colorist)
