I think Sinestro created the Yellow Lanterns after being removed from the Green Lantern corp for running his homeworld like a brutal dictator (or at least that’s what it was last I heard).

The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

Actually I think the only bit that was alterered recently was that Abin Sur dragged Atrocitus in for further questioning after his talk with Qull in “Tyger, Tyger”, and Atrocitus took advantage of his weakened willpower/fear and killed him, causing his ship to crash on Enarth. Sinestro helped Hal capture him shortly after Hal first got his ring, and returned Atrocitus to Ysmault.
 
Also, Atrocitus and the other four Inversions weren’t so much rulers of the Empire of Tears that I know of as they were survivors of the Massacre of Sector 666 (See; Manhunter glitch that led the Guardians to try employing sentient beings as soldiers). There’s more to it than that, but I’ll not spoil it.
 
Oddly enough, a lot of stuff from Tyger, Tyger was kept in the War of Light. The Guardians practically shit themselves when they realize that Sodam Yat’s on Mogo fighting against Ranx and the Children of the White Lobe (an event foreseen as the end of the Green Lanterns in “Tyger, Tyger”.)

NaturalGlitch:  
I believe the Reds were formed by a demon lord named Atrocitus who used to be one of the rulers of the Empire of Tears, which was destroyed by the Oans when they declared themselves Guardians of the Universe umptillions years ago. The red power battery was formed from the blood of the other rulers, the Five Inversions. The guys who came up with the new multiple lanterns thing took their inspiration on this one from an old Tales of the Corp story written by Alan Moore called “Tyger, Tyger”. The original story was really good, classic 80’s Moore, very Lovecraftian. I have no idea how much it was retconned into the current DC cosmology, though, as I’ve not read any of the new stories. I’m only familiar with these new corps from wiki; mention of the connection to the Tyger story caught my eye one day.

Well, like I said, the sapphires were around beforehand, but they weren’t really a GL-styled corp till recently.
 
The Blue lanterns started up when two of the guardians decided their siblings were Fucking idiots and decided to start over.
 
We recently learned the Indigos were created by Abin Sur and some old dude to serve as a secret weapon against the guardians when they finally went nuts.

The Mistake
Were did all these corps come from? I kinda know about the red one (just not in detail). We’re they all around and showed up, or where they created more recently?

Black lantern supes?
 
Honestly I don’t remember how they handled that one.
 
I think they might’ve just pounded on him until he either stopped regenerating or they had to wait to destroy the battery so that the other BLs could stay down too.

Oh and I almost forgot, you don’t have to be simply dead to be able to be a Black Lantern, you’re equally qualified if you’ve ever come back from the dead.
 
Y’know, like Supes, Green Arrow, Wonder woman and a shitload of other DC heroes.
 
And it’s even worse, because you’re forced to sit back and watch while your body attacks the people you love and your voice dishes out hannibal lectures while you can’t do jackshit without extreme amounts of willpower.

Takashi.0: Now that’s dark.  
Oh. Black rings. Dark. I get it. I looked up some Black lanterns, and one of them was a version of Superman. How do you beat that?

@Natural:
 
They do, but it’s not the actual person being brainwashed, it’s a fake personality constructed by the ring using the host’s memories to drive the host’s loved ones to despair so that they can consume their hearts to power the black lantern battery.

The Mistake
I looked it up a little bit, and I think that’s their blood boiling into super heated plasma, and they spew it out. That’s allot of hate.
