History
Arkillo was a member of the Sinestro Corps. A savage carnivore, Arkiloo was recruited into the Sinestro Corps due to his ability to "instill great fear" in others. Taken to Qward, Arkillo's brutal nature allowed him to quickly advanced in the ranks, becoming the Corps drill-sergeant and overseeing the creation of new Qwardian rings. He was a principle combatant during the Sinestro Corps War, particularly at the battles of Mogo and Ranx, where he fought one-on-one against his analog in the Green Lantern Corps, Kilowog.
During the battle of Earth, Arkillo and Kilowog had a rematch. Arkillos mocked Kilowog, saying for all his ability to overcome fear, he was still afraid of using his ring to take a life. However, Arkillo was defeated when Kilowog dropped a navy aircraft carrier on him. Kilowog refused to kill Arkillo, but but wouldn't let him kill with a power ring again, so he did the next best thing—he severed Arkillo's ring finger with the ring still attached.
Despite the loss of his ring and finger, Arkillo was able to escape Earth following the defeats of Sinestro and the Anti-Monitor. He actions after this are unknown, but he eventually made his way to Daxam when Mongul II summoned the Sinestro Corps there. Arkillo found Mongul of leading the Sinestro Corps, and challanged him to single combat without the rings, with the winner becoming leader.[1] What followed was a fierce battle, once which Arkillo seemed to dominate, but in the end Mongul defeated Arkillo, ripping his tongue out, but sparring him, so that Arkillo could be "seen but not heard" by the rest of the Sinestro Corps.[2]
