B'DG

Real Name: B'dg

Class: Extraterrestrial technology-user

Occupation: Green Lantern

Group Affiliation: Green Lantern Corps

Known Relatives: None

Aliases: None

Base of Operations: Space Sector 1014, Oa

First Appearance: Green Lantern IV #4 (October, 2005)

Powers: As a Green Lantern, B'dg wielded a power ring capable of doing almost anything he could imagine as long as it was recharged by his emerald power battery once every 24 hours. Examples of its' powers include flight, phasing, creating giant objects formed of energy, and force fields. As a rookie his ring was ineffective against anything colored yellow.

History: (Green Lantern IV #4) - Following the defeat of Parallax the Guardians were reforming the GLC, sending rings to the 3,600 sectors of space and bringing back recruits to Oa. B’dg, an intelligent chipmunk-like alien, was recalled to Oa, and became a Green Lantern, following in the heroic footsteps of Ch’p, who formerly patrolled his sector. B’dg was among Kilowog’s trainees, and watched a meeting between Green Lantern Hal Jordan and Kilowog. The new recruits were taken aback by Hal because they though all Earthmen were backwards and primitive. Hal realized they had no idea he’d destroyed the last GLC, and Kilowog reminded him that the universe was a big place, and in the big picture Hal wasn’t that important.

(Green Lantern / Sinestro Corps: Secret Files #1) - The rookie B’dg did not wear the lantern symbol on his uniform, and his ring was still vulnerable to yellow until he overcame fear. B’dg earned his wings during the Spider Guild invasion of Oa, and he repeatedly retold his success story to anyone who’d listen.

(Green Lantern IV #13) - Oa, B’dg and the other Corps members rejoiced at the return of the Lost Lanterns from Biot.

(Green Lantern: Sinestro Corps Special #1) - B’dg was on Oa when the planet was assaulted by the Sinestro Corps. After a valiant fight many Green Lanterns were killed, and the Sinestro Corps fled with sciencell prisoners Superboy Prime and Cyborg Superman as their newest recruits.

(Green Lantern IV #25) - The Sinestro Corps War raged on Earth, and while B’dg, the GLC and an army of superheroes battled the Corps the Anti-Monitor prepared to unleash an anti-matter wave to destroy Earth. With Earth’s destruction, the entire 52 would fall, and he would once again rule all that was. The GLC ruptured the heart of Anti-Monitor’s Warworld, the Sinestro Corps central power battery, and created a shield around Warworld and the Monitor. The ensuing blast nearly destroyed the Anti-Monitor, and he was finished off by Superman-Prime, who betrayed him for having destroyed his home, Earth-Prime. GL Hal Jordan defeated Sinestro in personal combat, and the Sinestro Corps, lacking any leadership, fled Earth. The heroes rejoiced and began rebuilding the damage the Sinestro Corps did.
