After Abin’s death, Sinestro felt that it is his duty to track down the killer, which leads to his first confrontation with Hal. Abin was even Sinestro’s brother-in-low, as Sinestro married Abin’s sister Arin after being introduced to her. Sinestro’s story is much the same-he lost Abin Sur, one of his closest friends in the Corps, even though patrolled separate sectors. It is in that wave of fear that he is possessed by the entity Parallax, and is then ostracized from the Corps as a renegade. Later on, he is stricken by grief after his city is demolished by Mongul and Cyborg Superman. This eventually leads him to the crashed ship of Abin Sur when he accepts the ring from a dying Abin Sur and becomes a Green Lantern. He is seen as reckless and dangerous by his superiors. Hal’s origin is predicated on the death of his father, an event which leads him to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a pilot in the Air Force. Looking at their beginnings, we see a similarity in their lives before they meet each other-Hal and Sinestro’s lives are defined by loss. What we learn through their story is that Hal and Sinestro have similarities and differences that make up their unique friendship, and bonds them as each other’s greatest foe but also their greatest ally. Throughout the run, we see the friendship of Hal and Sinestro take form and seemingly fall apart. As the run progresses, we see the trials and tribulations of Hal Jordan, but also those of his greatest adversary, Sinestro. For example, what if that “evil” was your friend and former colleague? This is the question that is the core of Geoff Johns’ run on Green Lantern. As pledged through the oath, Green Lanterns are tasked to protect the galaxy from what is considered “evil”. But what constitutes this “evil” exactly? It’s a deeply layered question-there are some obvious evils that must be fought without hesitation, but some morally ambiguous evils that may not be so easy to tackle. “No evil shall escape my sight,” reads a verse in the sacred oath of the Green Lantern Corps.
