The **Green Lantern Corps.** are a peace-keeping galactic police force created by the Guardians of the Universe.

## History

Centuries ago, the Green Lantern Corps. was created by the Guardians of the Universe with the aim to protect and preserve peace across the universe. Due to the overwhelming size of the universe, the Guardians split each area into "Sectors" and assigned a single corpsman from each planet to protect that Sector.

### Steppenwolf's invasion (1047)

Being aware of Apokolips' plan to invade Earth, the Guardians realised that the planet had not yet been chosen a champion to join the Green Lantern Corps.. Instead, they elected Yalan Gur, one of their most formidable members, to aid Earth in repelling the invasion. Despite their success, Yalan Gur had fallen in battle, with his ring being passed on centuries after.

### Origins (2018)

As one of the Green Lantern Corps' new recruits, the human Hal Jordan, finished his training, the Guardians sent him to return to his home planet to investigate a potential follow-up invasion from Apokolips. Upon arriving in Gotham City, Hal met Batman and discovered Parademon activity.

 Alerting the Guardians, they decided to send back-up in order to prevent any more deaths like Yalan Gur. However, armies of Parademons had already begun sweeping the planet, with Darkseid leading the charge in his pursuit of the Anti-Life Equation. Luckily, with the arrival of Tomar-Tu, Hal's two mentors, Kilowog and Thaal Sinestro, alongside many other heroes, the invasion was once again repelled, only this time without any deaths. Hal Jordan then befriended the heroes and founded the Justice League.
