Green Lantern – Sinestro | Comics
The once fallen bearer of Green Power Ring, Thaal Sinestro recites the Green Lantern Oath in front of the Guardians of the Universe to become a Green Lantern again. When asked about his thoughts of becoming an honorary member of the Corps again, he simply asked them to remove the ring but the Guardians sees the ring choosing him again as a sign of redemption. As Sinestro leaves to protect his respected sector, all of the Guardians attack Ganthet for expressing a different view on their decision. Sinestro observes his home planet of Korugar from the Orbit to find out that his own army of Sinestro Corps has taken over the planet to tyrannically rule over its populace and he is attacked by his Corps member 435, who he kills with almost no effort.

Meanwhile in Coast City, Hal Jordan is faced by his apartment’s landlord for past dues and as soon as he hears a cream for help, he jumps right through his window to the building next door to help a woman, only to find out that a shooting was taking place there and it got him arrested. His ex-girlfriend Carol Ferris bails him out of jail and offers a job, as well as been asked out on a date by Hal. Hal expresses his frustration on the Green Ring over the fact that he is stripped of his Lantern's duty and Sinestro was chosen instead. As his date with Carol was eventually trashed, Hal returns home only to find Sinestro out at his doorstep to offer a team-up. Soon, these two former partner forms an alliance that may be the only hope for planet Korugar.

To face the fallen Monitor Dax Novu, Superman and his alternate-selves were called in for help.

Absolute Final Crisis


"Final Crisis" is a follow-up crossover comic-book event to "Infinite Crisis", concluded from its prequel and seemingly the last of line of Crisis titled events by DC Comics. This event took place in 2008, when writer Grant Morrison (All-Star Superman, Doom Patrol) came up with the core idea of this story along with artists Carlos Pacheco (Bishop, Inhumans) and Doug Mahnke (Justice League Elite, Major Bummer) to envision the plot. Major characters from DC Universe like Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman remained as primary focus of the story as well as threats as great as Darkseid and Mandrakk the Dark Monitor.

Even today, "Final Crisis" is still considered as one of the most important crossover events of DC Comics in modern era that has changed major status-quo of Multiverse timeline with demise of a few popular protagonists and it is the last major event which took place before the biblical "Blackest Night" event. Though these events took place in the New Earth reality, following the reality-altering "Flashpoint" event, "Final Crisis" has been referenced a couple of time in The New 52 continuity. It also suggests that all major events does takes place in all different realities with a slight variation of outcome for each one.
