Welcome to hell, ya poozers! My name is Kilowog. My job is to break you apart into tiny pieces and put you back together as a Green Lantern.

— Kilowog

Kilowog was a member of the Green Lantern Corps.

History

Kilowog was mentored by Abin Sur, and in time became an important member of the Green Lantern Corps. As drill sergent of the Corps, Kilowog job is to train the "poozers" (the rookies) to become great Green Lantern, no matter how exigent his methods may be. Like when he forced a squad of rookies to repeat a simulated invasion of the Spider Guild on Oa until they succeeded.

When Abin Sure died, Kilowog trained his successor (and new poozer) Hal Jordan in fighting, teaching him how to use his willpower through the ring, also introducing him to the gravitational pull of the sun. Sinestro took over the training.

After Hal defeated Parallas, by luring him towards a sun, he was unable to escape the sun's gravity and began to fall to his death. Kilowog, along with Tomar-Re and Sinestro, arrived in time to save Hal.

Rise of the Manhunters

During Abin Sur's funeral, Kilowog helped defend Oa from the invading forces of the Manhunters, and he then was assigned to follow their trail to Biot. There, he was captured and used as the power source for a massive Manhunter denominated Highmaster. Hal rescued him and returned to Oa.
