Read at source

The Predator, the entity of love in the Green Lantern mythos, has undergone a permanent transformation called The Cleanse, surrendering its powers and immortality, which will fundamentally change the Violet Lanterns' role in the DC Universe.

01Summary

  1. 01Guy Gardner found The Predator in the Cave of the Deceased on Oa in Green Lantern Corps #20, no longer glowing with violet energy.
  2. 02The Predator became the first entity to undergo The Cleanse, a process from the Book of Oa, giving up its powers and immortality.
  3. 03Entities were previously confined to one emotion, but The Predator struggled with 'consumption of love' and veered into 'obsession and control'.
  4. 04Love energy will now 'latch on to a mortal being with strong levels of that emotion', birthing a new love entity, though this will not be an 'easy adjustment'.
  5. 05Carol Ferris is currently the only Violet Lantern and is searching for the Eight Aspects of Love in the main Green Lantern comic.

02Why it matters

This permanent rewrite of the Star Sapphire lore opens the door for a new love entity to emerge, potentially affecting Carol Ferris and the entire emotional spectrum dynamic, which will influence future Green Lantern stories.
