History
The DC Universe heavily changed its continuity following the events of Flashpoint in 2011. While most characters saw massive changes to their origins and history, the Green Lantern mythos was widely exempted from these changes. Green Lantern-related characters should be assumed to have the same history as before Flashpoint unless and until stories contradict them.
While patrolling the sector, he is attacked and crash lands on Earth. With his dying breath, he gives his Green Lantern Ring to Hal Jordan, making him the first human in the Green Lantern Corps.[1]
He currently resides in the Emerald Space, the "afterlife" for Green Lanterns who gave their life for the cause.[2]
