==Summary==
Parallax is the emotional entity of fear, and was an Alien parasite feeding off of fear for many centuries, before the Guardians trapped in the Central Power Battery. However, this caused the yellow impurity, the Green Lantern's weakness to the color yellow.
After Sinestro was imprisoned within the Central Power Battery, it plotted with Sinestro in order to find a way to escape. Parallax manipulated events that would cause Hal Jordan's downward spiral, weakening his willpower and leaving him vulnerable to being possessed by Parallax. This new "Hal" would then go about on attempting to remake the universe several times over, believing himself to still be a "hero"
Many years later, Hal would finally break free of Parallax's control. Since then, Parallax has been a recurring enemy of Hal Jordan, possessing many other beings such as Kyle Rayner, Barry Allen and Superman. Though eventually, Parallax would be tamed and be mastered by Sinestro.
