Fictional character biography

Green Lantern

A native of the planet Korugar in space sector 1417 (as the Guardians designate space), Sinestro's dedication to preserving order originally manifested in his previous career, an anthropologist specializing in reconstructions of ruins of long-dead civilization. Korugar is a fictional Planet in the DC Comics Universe It first appeared in Green Lantern #7 (July/August 1961 and was created by writer John Broome One day while he was on one such site, a Green Lantern named Prohl Gosgotha crashlanded into the site, injured and apparently dying. He quickly gave his ring to Sinestro, just in time for Sinestro, who barely even understood what the ring could do, to defend himself from the Lantern's pursuer, a yellow-clad Weaponer of Qward. However, Sinestro had to destroy the very ruins he had spent loving care restoring, to crush the Qwardian. Afterward, Gosgotha turned out to still be alive, and asked for his ring back to keep him alive long enough to get help. Sinestro, knowing this would mean not being a Green Lantern himself, instead allowed him to die and took over his post, the Guardians unaware of his actions. ^[2]

His desire for order did well by him in the Corps, and initially led him to be considered one of the greatest Green Lanterns. As the years passed, he became more and more fixated upon not simply protecting his sector, but on preserving order in the society of his home planet no matter the cost. Eventually he concluded that the best way to accomplish this was to conquer Korugar, and to rule the planet as a dictator.

When Hal Jordan joined the Green Lantern Corps, Sinestro was assigned to be his instructor. Harold "Hal" Jordan is a Fictional character, a DC Comics Superhero. The Fictional Green Lantern Corps is an Intergalactic Police force featured in DC Comics, particularly featuring the Superhero Jordan was horrified at his new mentor's fascistic methods, though Sinestro maintained that his iron-fisted rule was necessary to protect his people from alien forces. During his training, Jordan helped Sinestro repel an attempted invasion of Korugar by the alien warlords known as the Khunds. The Khunds are a Fictional alien race in the DC Universe, notable for extreme violence When Jordan called for help from the other Green Lanterns, Sinestro's dictatorship was exposed and he was forced to appear before the Guardians for punishment. The Guardians of the Universe are a Fictional extraterrestrial race in the DC Comics universe Katma Tui, the leader of a Korugarian resistance movement who felt that Sinestro's "protection" kept her people from growing as a society through contact with other alien races, was recruited as his replacement in the Corps. Katma Tui is a Fictional Comic book Superhero, an extraterrestrial from the planet Korugar, and a member of the intergalactic police Though Katma Tui eventually grew into one of the most respected Green Lanterns, she and the rest of Korugar initially resisted her appointment to the Corps; due to Sinestro's actions, Korugar had come to consider the symbol of the Green Lantern Corps an emblem of tyranny and oppression. The Fictional Green Lantern Corps is an Intergalactic Police force featured in DC Comics, particularly featuring the Superhero

Punishment and villainy

For using the power of the Green Lantern to instill fear rather than combat it, the Guardians banished Sinestro to the antimatter universe -- a counterpart to the "real" universe made up of "negative matter" -- in particular, the alien world of Qward, the Antimatter counterpart of the Guardians' homeworld Oa, ruled by a race of warriors and scientists known as the Weaponers of Qward. In Particle physics and Quantum chemistry, antimatter is the extension of the concept of the Antiparticle to Matter, where antimatter is composed Qward is a fictional world existing within an Antimatter universe that is part of the. Oa is a Fictional planet that lies at the center of the DC Comics universe. The Guardians' antimatter universe counterparts, the Weaponers, bore a fierce hatred of the Guardians and all Green Lanterns. By exiling Sinestro to a world ruled by evil beings who specifically hated him as a Green Lantern, the Guardians hoped to humble him. Their attempt at punishment would be a major miscalculation, however. Sinestro believed himself to have been wronged by his former masters, and now hated them just as much as the Weaponers did. Through their mutual hatred of the Guardians, Sinestro and the Weaponers became allies, with the Weaponers offering to help Sinestro gain revenge on the Guardians and the Corps.

Creating a yellow power ring for Sinestro to use, the Weaponers sent him back to the "positive matter" universe to seek his revenge. Sinestro quickly became the Green Lantern Corps' most powerful nemesis, partially due to a weakness in their power rings that prevented them from directly affecting the color yellow. Despite this, skilled Green Lanterns like Jordan, Sinestro's most hated enemy, always found ways to defeat him.

Before the Guardians took a leave of absence from their universe to attempt mating with their female counterparts the Zamarons, they constructed an inescapable prison for Sinestro and thousands of others on Oa. The Zamarons are a fictional extraterrestrial race published by DC Comics. Oa is a Fictional planet that lies at the center of the DC Comics universe. However, Sinestro's cunning prevailed once again and he managed to free himself through the mental manipulation of the Mad God of Sector 3600. Now wielding nearly unlimited power, Sinestro murdered entire star systems until he was finally subdued by the Green Lantern Corps of Earth. Now guilty of multiple acts of genocide, Sinestro was put on trial again by the assembled membership of the Green Lantern Corps. Finding him guilty, they condemned him to death and executed him, but Sinestro managed to cheat death itself by sending his essence into the Central Power Battery, and shut it down. While in the Battery, he also made a startling discovery about the ancient weakness to yellow within the Green Lantern's light.

Hal Jordan entered the Battery to desperately try and restore the powers of his fellow Lanterns, and ultimately defeated Sinestro, whose spirit was condemned to remain trapped inside the Central Battery, powerless, for eternity. Yet Sinestro had earned an even greater personal victory: the so-called "Yellow Impurity" turned out to be a sentient entity known as Parallax, the living embodiment of fear. Parallax is a Fictional character, a Comic book Supervillain in the DC Comics universe. Thanks to Sinestro's actions, Parallax had successfully infected Jordan's mind, leaving the so-called "greatest Green Lantern" vulnerable to fear for the first time in his life. . . and setting up Sinestro's ultimate triumph.

Guy Gardner

Guy Gardner, forced to forfeit his Green Lantern ring after a grudge match with Jordan, set out on a quest to regain his power and identity. Guy Gardner is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero published by DC Comics. With the help of Lobo, Gardner acquired the yellow power ring of Sinestro from Oa's Crypt of the Green Lantern Corps. Lobo is a Fictional character that appears in the Comic books published by DC Comics. The yellow ring did not use a battery to recharge but actually needed to be used against Green Lanterns to restore power. Gardner found this out by accident when a member of the GLC fought him while he had absolutely no power. The Greater London Council (GLC was the top-tier Local government administrative body for Greater London from 1965 to 1986

As the yellow ring spoke Sinestro's native language, Guy was unable to communicate with it, although it seemed to understand him to a degree.

Guy only wore the yellow ring for a short while as the character was caught up in the new editorial direction for the Green Lantern franchise that led to the controversial Emerald Twilight storyline in Green Lantern (vol. Emerald Twilight is a 1994 Comic book story told in Green Lantern (vol 3) #48-50 and it was decided to take the yellow ring from Gardner and completely reinvent the character.

Parallax

In the meantime, the return of the Guardians resulted in the Corps being reestablished. The newly restored Corps would be short-lived, however, thanks to the inadvertent efforts of the alien warlord Mongul and Hank Henshaw, a cyborg who was at the time impersonating Superman. Mongul is the name of two Fictional characters that appears in Comic books published by DC Comics. Hank Henshaw is a Fictional character, a Comic book Supervillain from the DC Comics universe and is primarily an enemy of Superman Superman is a fictional Comic book Superhero widely considered to be one of the most recognized of such characters and an American Cultural icon As part of their ultimately thwarted plot to transform Earth into a new version of Mongul's interstellar fortress Warworld and gain revenge on Superman, Mongul and the Cyborg used several nuclear devices to completely destroy Coast City, California -- Hal Jordan's home -- and everyone living in it. Warworld is a fictional artificial planet featured in several DC Comics stories Coast City is a Fictional city created by John Broome and Gil Kane that appears in stories published by DC Comics. Driven mad with grief by the destruction of his city and the Guardians' apathy towards his plight, Jordan's previously indomitable willpower was shattered. Parallax was thus able to possess him completely and push him towards a homicidal rampage that wiped out most of the Guardians and left scores of Green Lanterns dead or maimed, as Parallax sought to absorb the Central Power Battery's energies into his being. Parallax is a Fictional character, a Comic book Supervillain in the DC Comics universe.

Sinestro was freed by the Guardians from the Central Power Battery and sent to stop Jordan, only to have his neck snapped by Parallax. While that appeared to be what happened, the Guardians actually extracted from the Battery a construct created by Parallax with Sinestro puppeteering the creature's creation with his Qwardian ring from within it. Parallax promptly finished off the Green Lantern Corps by absorbing the Central Power Battery's energies into himself. With the Battery destroyed, Sinestro escaped and went into hiding as he watched Jordan become what Sinestro once became: a traitor and a murderer reviled by his friends and his allies. He also becomes obsessed with Kyle Rayner after Ganthet gave him his power ring, knowing that his plan to end the Green Lantern Corps' legacy has failed.

Duplicate

During the Wonder Woman Lifeline storyline, an imperfect duplicate of Sinestro was created by an artificial intelligence based on the son of scientist Doctor Julian Lazarus, who was attempting to bring his son back after being responsible for the accident that killed him. The AI based on the child had already created a short-lived copy of Barry Allen, and subsequently created a copy of Sinestro based on an old video tape of the villain. Bartholomew "Barry" Allen is a Fictional character, a Superhero in the DC Comics universe and the second Flash Although lacking Sinestro's tactical genius, the boy's random use of Sinestro's powers resulted in the destruction of at least two skyscrapers and a bridge, and he would have killed Wonder Woman were it not for the intervention of a disguised Hercules. Hercules (also known as Heracles and Herakles) is a fictional Olympian god in the DC Universe based on the Greek Demigod The program went on to create a duplicate of Doomsday before it was shut down for good. Doomsday is a Fictional character that appears in Comic books published by DC Comics.

Return

Sinestro eventually revealed the charade of his 'death' when Kyle Rayner discovered the existence of Parallax and revealed it to Green Arrow and the Justice League. Nearly killing the two heroes, Sinestro was stopped by the newly resurrected Hal Jordan, who reclaimed his ring and was purged of Parallax's influence. The two fought to a draw, with Sinestro escaping to the antimatter universe when his ring was damaged by Hal during the fight.

Sinestro later appeared in the miniseries Villains United, where he captured Lady Quark for the Secret Society of Super-Villains. Villains United is a six-issue Comic book Limited series, written by Gail Simone with art by Dale Eaglesham and Wade von Grawbadger Lady Quark is a Fictional character, a Superheroine in the DC Universe.

Sinestro Corps

Main article: Sinestro Corps War

The Sinestro Corps, as featured on the cover for Green Lantern Vol. "Sinestro Corps War" is an American comic book crossover event published by DC Comics in its Green Lantern and 4 #21. Art by Ivan Reis and Oclair Albert.

After the Battle of Metropolis, Sinestro retreated to the antimatter universe. Here, he encountered the Anti-Monitor and embraced the doctrine of spreading fear. The Anti-Monitor is a Fictional character, a Comic book Supervillain and the Antagonist of the 1985 DC Comics Miniseries With the Green Lantern Corps restarted with the return of Hal Jordan, Sinestro has decided to found the Sinestro Corps, offering yellow power rings and a role in the Corps to the most feared and savage warriors of the universe. The Sinestro Corps is a group of Fictional characters a villainous analogue to the Green Lantern Corps in the DC Universe. The size and scope of this new organization has yet to be revealed but stands to be a major threat for the Green Lantern Corps in the near future. He is also revealed to have masterminded the death of Kyle Rayner's mother by having the sentient virus Despotellis invade her as part of a plot to break Kyle's will so that he can become Parallax's latest host. The Sinestro Corps is a group of Fictional characters a villainous analogue to the Green Lantern Corps in the DC Universe.

As the Sinestro Corps continue to attack Green Lanterns across space, Sinestro himself returns to Korugar to confront his successor, Soranik Natu. Soranik Natu is a Fictional Comic book Superheroine, an extraterrestrial from the planet Korugar, and a member of the intergalactic Sinestro defeats her, but spares her life, calculating that this will force her to stay on Korugar to fulfill her responsibilities as "the Savior of Korugar. " Sinestro then returns to Qward to join the battle occurring there, and demands to know where Jordan is.

Sinestro, upon returning to Qward, confronts Earth's Green Lanterns, and upon their escape, follows them toward Earth: the Sinestro Corps' real target. Hal Jordan calls for backup, and upon their arrival, the Sinestro Corps begin attacking Earth. Sinestro reveals to Hal, Guy, and John, that he intends to turn Earth into the new homeworld for the Sinestro Corps, and the site of the new Coast City into a mass graveyard.

Though the Sinestro Corps is set back, they are not truly defeated. By enacting new laws--including giving the Green Lanterns the ability to kill--the Guardians have played into what Sinestro claims is his overall goal. Now the Green Lanterns spread fear by being unchecked. Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner beat Sinestro in hand-to-hand combat. Following the finale of The Sinestro Corps War, Sinestro is depicted in the custody of the Guardians, imprisoned in Oa's Sciencells where he learns from Hal Jordan that he has received a death penalty. Despite his personal defeat, Sinestro claims victory, as loyalty to the Green Lantern Corps. Sinestro's overall goal through his war was to groom his former corps for a more active, forceful role in the universe. With the enactment of the corps new laws and the approval of lethal force, the Green Lantern corps will inspire fear, creating the same effect as the Sinestro Corps: order through fear.

With the hunt for the members of the Sinestro Corps becoming one of the Green Lantern Corps' highest priorities, many of those who wield yellow power rings have been incarcerated in Oa's sciencells, with their power rings stored in the large chamber that houses the entire detention facility. Sinestro has been shown to have chewed a very large hole in his finger, and he used his blood to paint the insignia of the Sinestro Corps on his cell window. All Sinestro Corps members followed his example, with the result of thousands of emblems across the cosmic jail. Interestingly, when Sinestro formed his insignia from blood, the power rings stationed on Oa seemed to react violently, threatening to break free of their confines.

Powers and abilities

Sinestro use yellow power rings built on Qward. The rings can create objects based on the wielders own thoughts. The power rings are fuelled by fear instead of willpower. The yellow rings are charged by Manhunter androids that have yellow power batteries built into themselves, which in turn are connected to a large yellow Power Battery based on Qward. The rings have no known weaknesses, unlike a Green Lantern power ring's previous vulnerability to yellow. Also, the yellow rings are not restricted from killing sentient beings as the Green Lantern's power rings were.
