Mongul’s devastating attack leaves Coast City a smoking crater. Returning to Earth, Hal Jordan suffers a massive psychological break. Driven mad by grief, he uses his ring to recreate the city and its millions of inhabitants. When the Guardians of the Universe harshly sanction him for using Oan energy for personal gain, Hal snaps. He sets a direct course for Oa to seize the Central Power Battery. John Stewart and Guy Gardner try to intercept him but underestimate Hal’s raw willpower and growing darkness. Along the way, Hal ruthlessly strips fellow Lanterns of their rings, leaving them stranded in the void of space. Arriving on Oa, Hal kills Sinestro (freed by the Guardians as a desperate last resort) and steps into the Central Power Battery. He emerges not as a Green Lantern, but as Parallax, clad in armor of pure yellow fear energy. The Central Battery is shattered; the Corps goes dark. A dying Guardian, Ganthet, finds Kyle Rayner, a freelance graphic artist with no military background, in a dark alley and thrusts the ring upon him. John and Guy find Kyle; John wants to train him tactically, while Guy thinks he's a joke. Parallax returns to Earth, intending to siphon the planet’s core energy to trigger a localized big bang, reset time, and "fix" his mistakes. The finale is a grueling battle in the ruins of Coast City. John coordinates the planetary defense while Guy utilizes an unstable, rogue alien weapon to match Hal's power. Kyle is forced to step up. Because his ring was forged differently, it isn't vulnerable to the yellow fear impurity. Kyle’s artistic, unpredictable constructs shatter Parallax’s armor, giving John a window to appeal to the real Hal Jordan buried deep inside. Hal temporarily regains control, realizes the horror he has wrought, and flies into the sun to reignite Earth's solar system and banish Parallax. His sacrifice leaves a fractured universe with only three Earth Lanterns to rebuild the light.
