Lanterns Finally Explains Why Guy Gardner Became Earth’s Green Lantern
John turns down the Green Lantern Corps after collateral damage in Rushville leaves Earth without a protector, setting up Guy Gardner’s rise.
- In Lanterns Episode 5, the series reveals that Abin Sur was murdered rather than killed in an accident. The alien fugitive Zoe Macon killed Sur after he brought her to Earth to hide her from the Guardians.
- Sur broke protocol by shielding the fugitive Manhunter, Macon, bringing her to Earth to hide from the Guardians. To protect her identity, Macon killed Sur, leaving him only enough time to find a replacement for the Green Lantern Corps.
- John Stewart tracks down Macon in Rushville, using his sniper skills to defeat the Manhunter after she destroys half the town. Amid the chaos, Stewart recovers the power ring from his mentor, Hal Jordan, who is sidelined by injuries.
- Telling the Guardian he feels "hollow," Stewart formally rejects the Green Lantern Corps, leaving Earth without a protector. This decision clears the path for Guy Gardner to assume the mantle.
- Stewart is destined to become the Green Lantern in Man of Tomorrow, the upcoming sequel to Superman. The road back to the Corps remains fraught as he must unlearn his rigid military training to achieve this destiny.
