Graf Toren was a member of the Green Lantern Corps.
History
Origin
Graf Toren was a light monk of Karax. When a holy world was consumed by the Spider Guild, Graf spent years hunting them, leading to his membership in the Green Lantern Corps.[citation needed] At some point during his patrol, Toren was kidnapped by the Draal, an alien race who planned to make doppelgangers of the Green Lanterns and use them as sleeper agents. Along with Guy Gardner and other Green Lanterns, Toren managed to escape and thwart the Daal's plan.[1]
Emerald Twilight
He had been sent by the Guardians of the Universe to stop none other than Hal Jordan, "the greatest Green Lantern of all time," and who once saved his life in the border skirmishes of Sector 2321. Jordan, possessed by Parallax, defeated Toren and many other Green Lanterns standing in his path, stripping them from their rings and leaving them for dead.[2]
Lost Lanterns
However, Toren was discovered years later on Biot, the homeworld of the Manhunters. The Cyborg Superman had been using him, along with numerous other forgotten Lanterns, as a power source[3]. Jordan and Guy Gardner helped Toren and the others defeat the cyborg and destroy Biot[4].
During the Sinestro Corps War, Graf joined the other "Lost Lanterns" in rescuing Ion from Qward. When Hal Jordan wanted some lanterns to help him locate the also missing John Stewart and Guy Gardner, Graf joined him, saying that he did not look back on Jordan's actions with anger or hate. Following the Sinestro Corps War, Graf became critical of the creation of the Alpha Lanterns, feeling that all their emotions had been stripped from them.
