Abin Sur (User:Leader Vladimir)

Abin Sur was the Green Lantern of Space Sector 2814 and one of the greatest members of the Green Lantern Corps before his tragic death. Among his greatest achievements is the defeat of the fear monster Parallax and the arrest of future Red Lantern Corps leader Atrocitus.

He was born on planet Ungara and became a Green Lantern after the death of his predecessor. He was the mentor and best friend of Thaal Sinestro, who also married his sister Arin and fathered his niece Soranik Natu. He was also responsible for the creation of the Indigo Tribe.

Abin's life would come to an end when his starship crashed on Earth, killing him and causing his ring.to search for a replacement. Hal Jordan was chosen as the new Green Lantern of sector 2814 and the first human member of the Green Lantern Corps. Out of respect for his predecessor, Hal returned Abin's corpse to his homeworld, where the Ungarans made a memorial in honor of Abin.
