Atros' homeworld was ravaged in this time and he saw his wife as well as his child ruthlessly incinerated by the android Manhunters which left Atrocitus as one of the few survivors. This led to them exterminating all life in Space Sector 666 bringing about the devastating period known as the Massacre of Sector 666. Their peaceful life came to an end when the renegade Oan Krona induced a programming malfunction in the Manhunters. Countless years ago, by the time he reached adulthood, he had worked to become a psychologist and was married with his wife who had a young daughter. ![]() Despite primarily being a villain, he has also appeared as an anti-hero/anti-villain in several storylines, such as Blackest Night, Brightest Day, and War of the Green Lanterns.Ītrocitus, originally known as Atros, was an alien native to the planet Ryut in Space Sector 0666.

It’s stuff like that that definitely makes me feel like I’m getting my money’s worth.Pity is weak. I had to do that with Hyperman and the planet Trombus when I read this issue.

It’s really high concept and dense stuff sometimes. What I like about this book is that I rarely know what the hell is going on. ![]() That’s the most backhanded compliment that I’ve ever given. You couldn’t do that as effectively if you had a character with any more substance than Hal Jordan. His blandness also allows the audience to put ourselves in his shoes. But because of that it means he can complement the flavors of the otherwise rich characters that find their way into his book. That allows Morrison to drop him into these super dense and absolutely crazy stories featuring some of the wonkiest characters in the DC Universe. Hal Jordan himself is easily the least interesting thing about this comic. To me at least.īut in this book, it doesn’t matter. He isn’t as round of a character as I’d like him to be, and he’s just generally uninteresting. In my opinion, he’s the lamest Green Lantern that just so happens to get most of the attention. It’s no secret that I don’t really like Hal Jordan. So let me tell you what you probably already know: This man is insane in the best way possible.
