However, Jessica is not the one that dies, it's the Ring of Volthoom that does.The ring shatters and Jessica is shown to be alive, and almost immediately after that, Jessica is chosen by a ring and is inducted into the Green Lantern Corps. Hal Jordan then trains her to overcome fear and teaches her how to effectively use the Ring of Volthoom.ĭuring a scuffle between Darkseid, the Anti-Monitor and the Justice League, Jessica seemingly sacrifices herself and jumps in front of the Black Racer (The embodiment of death) to protect the Flash from Black Racer. ![]() Batman then introduces her to the Justice League where Barry Allen, the Flash trains her until Hal Jordan, the first Green Lantern of Earth, returns to Earth. The Ring controlled her for a small amount of time until Batman was able to convince Jessica to overcome her fears, and she regained control. That didn't work and she became the new Power Ring. She does not want the Power Ring for herself, in fact, she refuses it and tries to shoot it with its shotgun. The Power Ring (AKA Ring of Volthoom) recognizes that Jessica Cruz has great fear due to her traumatic experience and her anxiety and chooses her as a host. The difference between the Ring of Volthoom and Green Lantern Rings is that it feeds on the fear of those whose willpower is weak. Green Lantern Rings choose there host by their willpower and ability to overcome fear. After, this Power Ring dies, the ring of Volthoom looks for a suitable replacement. But it is important for you to know that Power Ring, who you can see in the right side of the picture above, y'know, the guy that looks like Green Lantern is killed by Sinestro. We are not going to go into the story or stories where the Justice League fights the Crime Syndicate. You should be able to recognize the classic Justice League on the left, on the right is the evil versions of those heroes from Earth 3, called The Crime Syndicate collectively. ![]() So Green Lantern's equivalent on Earth 3 is Power Ring. So Superman would be Ultraman on Earth 3. For those of you who do not know, Earth 3 is an alternate universe where everybody that is a superhero in the main DC Universe is a villain. The green ring I'm talking about, it's not a Green Lantern Corps Ring, it was a ring of Volthoom from Earth-3. Traumatized by the experience, she decides to not leave her apartment for three years, and would have continued doing so had a green ring not found her. ![]() This leads to the guys burying the body attacking Jessica and her friends, and killing them all, leaving Jessica as the only survivor. The reason that she developed this anxiety is because she and her friends were out in the woods doing their thing, minding their own business until they stumble upon these two guys burying a dead body. I don't know how many people will relate to her origin story.Įssentially Jessica Cruz became a shut-in that suffers from extreme anxiety to the point where she did not leave her apartment for about three years. ![]() That is way too many Green Lanterns to protect one planet, but I digress because Jessica is actually a very interesting character that I think many people will be able to relate to. Jessica Cruz is the most recent Green Lantern of Earth, making there a total of 6 human Green Lanterns that protect Earth.
