Powers: Murr was a virtually mindless being whose touch could melt any living being. Murr's primary weapon was his power ring, which was virtually identical to the power rings used by the Green Lantern Corps, except that it only utilized the yellow range of the spectrum, tapping into the emotional energy of fear. Murr’s power ring was capable of doing almost anything he could imagine. Examples of its’ powers include flight, phasing, creating giant objects formed of energy, and force fields.

History: (Green Lantern / Sinestro Corps: Secret Files #1) - Scientist Austiin Snow was working on Asteroid Base DW-426 when an accident involving the base's power supply turned him into the minless Murr The melting Man, who brought death to all he touched. Sinestro chose Murr for the Sinestro Corps for his ability to instill great fear, and even Murr's fellow soldiers felt uncomfortable around him.

(Green Lantern: Sinestro Corps Special #1) - Sinestro gathered Murr and the Sinestro Corps on Qward. Sinestro laid out their mission of using fear to make the chaos of the universe bend to their will, and to replace it with law and order. Their first step was to burn anyone thst would oppose their plan, so they had to destroy the Green Lantern Corps. They brought Kyle Rayner to Qward and stripped him of the Ion entity. Sinestro made Kyle feel fear, and infected him with the Parallax entity, which he then presented to his guardian, the Anti-Monitor.
