Appearing to be no more eventful than the birth of any Earth child, news of John Stewart's birth reached to the stars. On the distant planet Oa, the Guardians of the Universe recorded that the "Opener of Doors" had been born. When Guy Gardner the alternate choice for Green Lantern of Space Sector 2814 was injured, the current Green Lantern, Hal Jordan, was ordered by the Guardians to train a replacement should he become incapacitated as well. Their choice was John Stewart. Stewart accepted the offer to be trained as a Green Lantern. Given a power ring and the uniform, Stewart discarded the mask, stating defiantly that he had nothing to hide.
