Green Lantern – Agent Orange | Comics

Green Lantern – Agent Orange | Comics
Following the events of “Sinestro Corps War”, the ancient dwellers of Oa known as the Controllers saw the upcoming “War of Light” and decides to be prepared for it. For that purpose, they sneaked into the hidden underground palace of Okaara in the Vega system, where the Orange Lantern Power Battery is kept, to add it in their possession. As they located and approached to the battery, suddenly it unleashed the Orange Lanterns who killed the Controllers immediately on sight. Even it was the plan of the Controllers alone, an unaware and enraged Agent Orange is very displeased at this sneak out, which he sees as the break of the age old treaty the Guardians had made with him and became very angry at their seeming deception.

On Odym, Hal Jordan was trying to get rid of the Blue Lantern Ring given to him by Saint Walker previously as Ganthet and Sayd explains to him that they actually wanted Hal to lead the Blue Lantern Corps as a Green Lantern. The Green Lantern Stel was chasing one of the rogue Sinestro Corps Member 2825 but he suddenly got captured by the minions of Agent Orange after the Sinestro Corps member was devoured. An injured Stel is then sent back to Oa to deliver the Guardians a message from Agent Orange and despite the protest of them having no affiliation with Controllers, Agent Orange declared their age old treaty null and void. This heated argument turned into a battle of the two corps and Hal Jordan is abducted by Orange Lanterns.

Parallax | Comics

Not only the parasitic creature can sense fear in any living organism and can control individuals with fear, it is able to ruin entire civilizations by creating massive paranoia among the populace.

Parallax | Comics

On Maltus, the homeworld of the Guardians of the Universe, Parallax was conserved ages ago and then he was taken from there and the Guardians locked him up with the energy of willpower in the Central Power Battery on Oa. Lying dormant within the Power Battery for over a billion years, Parallax waited for the right time for his release.

For the greater good, its existence was kept a secret to everyone and it weakened the green power rings against the color yellow. Because of this particular reason, the being is also referred as "The Yellow Impurity" of the green rings and the Guardians were more selective while recruiting new members for Green Lantern Corps; looking for great willpower among them to master the ring against yellow.

Then along came Sinestro, who gone from a Green Lantern to an enemy of the Corps. His imprisonment inside the Oan Battery awakens Parallax and the parasite took over Hal Jordan. However, Jordan was eventually able to break free of its influence and reborn afterwards (Green Lantern – Rebirth) as well as the creature itself. Later Green Lantern Kyle Rayner also become Parallax's host during Sinestro Corps War and joined the newly formed Corps as a herald of Anti-Monitor.
