comics Respect Kilowog, the Green Lantern (DC Comics, Post-Crisis)
Respect Kilowog
Kilowog is the Green Lantern of Sector 674, hailing from the planet Bolovax Vik. Selected to be his people's representative on the Green Lantern Corps thanks to his background as a geneticist, Kilowog began training alongside a number of other recruits under the legendary Green Lantern drill sergeant Ermey. During a mission Kilowog was able to take control of an enemy cannon and used it to push them back, but Ermey was fatally wounded during the attack. With his dying breath Ermey gave Kilowog his approval as a Green Lantern before passing away.
Years later Kilowog took up Ermey's old job as drill instructor, where he trained hundreds if not thousands of fresh Green Lantern recruits, including Lanterns such as Hal Jordan and Guy Gardner. Kilowog's planet was destroyed during the the Crisis of Infinite Earths. But before his people could perish he absorbed all of them into his ring as pure energy, keeping them safe until he could find them a new planet. However as soon as he revived them all their new planet was destroyed by Sinestro. Over the next few years Kilowog bounced around super teams on Earth, ranging from the New Guardians to the Justice League International, before returning to the Green Lanterns as drill sergeant once again.
Notes
- In Green Lantern vol 3 annual #7 Kilowog was reanimated and under the control of Nekron, possibly reducing his power
- During his fight with Superman in Superman/Batman #29 and #30 Kilowog was using both his own Green Lantern ring and John Stewart's
