Comic Book History
Who is GANTHET?
GANTHET is a member of the ancient Guardians of the Universe. His first appearance was in the 1992 graphic novel Green Lantern: GANTHET's Tale. He was created by Larry Niven and John Byrne.
First Appearance
GANTHET's unusual characteristic is his "human-like" personality, which differs from most of the other Guardians who are very stern 'by-the-book' characters.
GANTHET is said to be a part of the Quintessence, a group of gods who oversee the universe in its entirety, though they hold special interest on Earth.
The Guardians lost their greatest Lantern (Hal Jordan) to "insanity" that went on a rampage and massacred the whole Green Lantern Corps, and destroyed their Central Power Battery. The Guardians decided to transfer all of their power to GANTHET, leaving him as the last remaining Guardian.
