HistoryEdit

Yalan Gur was a red-scaled, reptilian humanoid and Green Lantern assigned to Sector 2814 (Earth's sector) in the 10th Century A.D.

While Alan Scott, along with the rest of the Justice Society of America, was trapped in Limbo, his mystic lantern sent a projection to Hal Jordan, Guy Gardner, and John Stewart (the Green Lanterns of Earth at the time). After tracing the projection to Scott's home, the lantern told the story of its origin.

In the lantern's story, Yalan Gur was once one of the greatest of the Green Lantern Corps, and the Guardians of the Universe chose to remove the customary weakness to the color yellow from his power ring. Without this limitation, however, he was corrupted by his power, and he came to Earth and enslaved the people of China. The Guardians of the Universe thwarted Yalan by adding a new weakness to wood to his ring, which allowed the club-wielding villagers to overwhelm their oppressor and mortally wound him. The dying Yalan Gur fled into Earth's upper atmosphere, where he merged with his lantern-shaped power battery as he died. His lantern then collided with a fragment of the Starheart and was merged with its magical essence, becoming the Green Flame that is the source of Alan Scott's power.
