Powers: Kreon's right arm was a prosthetic made of gold. As a Green Lantern, Kreon 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.

History: Kreon was a GL swho seemingly perished when Hal Jordan was possessed by Parallax.

(Green Lantern IV #3) - Kreon and a number of other Green Lanterns had not really perished at Green Lantern's hand, but ended up in the clutches of the Manhunters.

(Green Lantern IV #11-13) - Tomar-Tu escaped the Manhunters and piloted a ship towards Earth, crash-landing at Edwards Air Force base. The Corps ministered to his injuries, and Hal hoped that the other Lanterns he seemingly killed were still alive. He still felt tremendous guilt over his actions under the influence of Parallax. Hal and Guy traveled to Biot, and found Kreon and the other Lanterns being jailed by the Manhunters to power their technology. Hal revived the Lanterns he thought he'd killed. They attacked him, but Kreon realized something was wrong when he refused to fight back. He apologized for betraying them, convincing them he was on their side, and they learned of the presence of more Corps members taken by the Manhunters for information and a connection to the Central Power Battery, including Arisia. Cyborg unleashed his Highmasters on the Lanterns, and a Manhunter unleashed an energy blast on Kreon, killing him. Kreon's ring chose Boodikka as a successor, and she made it clear she blamed Hal for his death. Hal and the Lost Lanterns freed their comrades and returned to Oa.

(Green Lantern / Sinestro Corps: Secret Files #1) - Kreon memorialized in the Crypts of the Green Lantern Corps.
