Green Lantern was a hero of Earth, who fell into a trap laid by Barbatos. His body was destroyed, but his mind and soul were enslaved to Barbatos, with his ring animating a new form for himself as the Death Construct.
History
Green Lantern and the Justice League stood against Barbatos's invasion of the multiverse. However, when they attempted to don armor made of Element X to battle him, they found it corrupted. The armor enslaved the heroes to Barbatos, with Green Lantern losing everything but some replica of his consciousness contained within his ring. At Barbatos's command, the ring created a monstrous shell called the "Death Construct".
For two years, these Dragons of the Bat waged war on what was now called "Earth-Metal", until the returning Duke Thomas, now called the "Last Monitor", rallied the remaining heroes of Earth-Metal to stand against the Dragons. The Death Construct battled The Flash, who reached into the energy shell and stole Hal's remaining hand away, destroying the Construct.[1]
