Sinestro of Korugar, custodian of space sector 1417, was regarded as an unparalleled Green Lantern, and selected to instruct Hal Jordan in the use and mastery of his power ring. Ironically, Korugar was a world oppressed by its own watchman as Sinestro felt order should be enforced with fear and intimidation. Seeing this, the Guardians of the Universe stripped Sinestro of his power ring and banished him to the antimatter universe of Qward.
Armed with a yellow power ring supplied by the Qwardian Weaponers, a vengeful Sinestro sowed destruction across the universe, becoming Hal Jordan's greatest foe. In a final reign of mayhem, Sinestro raided Oa to destroy the great Central Power Battery but was discorporated and trapped within. There, Sinestro resided wraith-like until the Guardians resurrected him to defend Oa from the power-seeking Hal Jordan. Jordan bested the Korugarian in single combat, snapping Sinestro's neck, seemingly ending his defiance forever.
It was later learned that Sinestro, while trapped inside the power battery, awoke the Parallax entity, which then took control of Hal Jordan.
