History

Seeing Darkseid's machinations as a threat, the Guardians thought of ways to deal with him. A Manhunter and a previous GL failed. Raker fought his way to Darkseid. Darkseid mocked him, crushing his hand and ring, then had him sent back to Oa to tell of his failure.

The Corps greatly expanded after Raker's initial mission to Apokolips. He was then sent back with a group of Lanterns that he had drilled for battling in Apokolips.

Darkseid was waiting. He had Desaad study the remains of the destroyed ring. The horde of Parademons had yellow coatings to limit the effectiveness of the rings. Many of the group were slain. Those taken as prisoners were tortured, killed, then their bodies were displayed as a warning to those who opposed Darkseid. Cut off from recharging, Raker and the remaing members used Parademon weapons.

Raker was leading a last desperate attack when the Guardians intervened. Darkseid agreed that as long as the Corp did not oppose his rulership he would not interfere in their patrolled sectors. Raker was to remain a prisoner on Apokolips, but he was secretly given back his ring and a new Power Battery by his trainee Ash-Pak-Glif. He eventually was able to hide underground, helping the Hunger Dogs when he could.

Until Orion and Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner) encountered this 'forgotten Green Lantern', he was largely thought of as nothing more than a fairy tale. Raker, too, was unaware of events that had happened. He was shocked to learn of the destruction of the Corps and Oa. He helped Rayner and Orion escape.
