Hal Jordan has been a Green Lantern for a few years now after he was recruited upon the death of Abin Sur. As a former test pilot for Ferris Air, he never could have imagined the places and things he’s seen since that first day he received the ring. He fought Legion, trained with Kilowog and Sinestro, only to have to fight the latter when it was revealed that Sinestro had subjugated his own people and was stripped of his ring. Now Hal is back on Oa after being called to help quell an uprising in Sector 2813. He and Tomar Re worked together to defeat the Dominators, but even they spoke of a greater threat.
“This threat the Dominators spoke of Tomar, do you think there is any truth to it?”
“It is difficult to say, Hal. There are many prophecies of threats around the universe. Some spoke of the Dominators allying themselves with an enemy from the anti-matter universe. Others speak of a cataclysmic crisis that will affect all of reality. Still others…”
Tomar’s train of thought was interrupted as he and Hal were called by the Guardians to learn of the verdict against the Dominators. As they were the two Lanterns responsible for leading the charge and defeating this enemy, they were the only two requested. While Hal had expected this, Tomar was more concerned at what they would potentially learn.
“Green Lanterns of Sector 2813 and 2814, your efforts in defeating the Dominators are to be commended.”
“Thank you Ganthet.”
“But there is an even greater danger in this unforeseen attack, Tomar Re. A threat is coming that once directly affected your sector and will soon affect yours 2814.”
“What kind of threat, Sayd? What exactly are we facing?”
“Tomar Re, do you remember the cataclysm that befell a planet in your sector?”
“I do, Appa Ali Apsa. I did everything I could to prevent the destruction of Krypton; I still believe the Stellarium would have relieved the tectonic pressure in the core. To this day I still mourn my failure.”
“We were saddened to learn of Krypton’s explosion Tomar Re, but as I have often told you, you were not to blame.”
“Ganthet…with all due respect…”
“You were not to blame, Tomar Re. We have long consulted the Book of Oa and Krypton’s destruction was destined to be a fixed point. Whether through outside forces or of their own making, try as we might, we could not have prevented it.”
“Ganthet, you have called us here for a reason. The Dominators spoke of a potential threat in the making. I…”
“So impatient; 2814. In our interrogation of this enemy we have learned what caused the destruction of Krypton before the planet’s time. That threat has been rediscovered and is set to affect another world.”
“What world; Sayd? If there is a chance for me to rectify my mistake, I would appreciate the opportunity.”
Appa Ali Apsa, Ganthet and Sayd each shook their heads in slight disappointment of Tomar’s continued need to blame himself for Krypton’s fate. They know he feels responsible, but for years his guilt has weighed him down. Though they are reluctant to include him, they also realize this may be his chance to forgive himself.
