After Sinestro finally reaches his home world of Korugar and rapidly incapacitates Green Lantern Princess Iolande, he confronts Soranik Natu and reveals that he is her biological father. Sinestro begins to tell Soranik about how his wife took Soranik and left him as he began his rise to power on Korugar. He was eventually able to locate his daughter and give her the mark on her face, his family's coat of arms, along with a micro transmitter device so he could always locate her. He visited Soranik throughout her life using his ring to alter his appearance and he once even took a picture of her and her new family, the Natu's, at her medical school graduation. Sinestro then says that he's proud of her for succeeding where he could not, most notably bringing order to Korugar peacefully as a member of the Green Lantern Corps. He then tells her that they must work together to stop the Blackest Night.
After leaving Korugar, Sinestro traveled to visit the grave of his former friend Abin Sur, and then made plans to lead an assault on the homeworld of the Star Sapphire Corps.
Upon arriving, he first encountered Carol Ferris. He asked her why she was there, as she and Hal Jordan never fully formed a partnership for any meaningful amount of time. While Sinestro holds no ill will towards Carol and only wished to free his Corpswomen from Zamaron, he warned Carol that he would hurt her if she stood in his way. Carol then encased Sinestro in a crystal structure, forcing him to relive the death of his love, Arin Sur (Abin Sur's sister).
Angered by this, Sinestro bursted free, staggering Carol enough for his Corpsmen to seize her. However, before he could capitalize on the advantage, the Black Lanterns invaded, led by Amon Sur, shocking both Sinestro and Carol. Hal Jordan and Indigo then appeared, initially fighting off some of the Black Lanterns.
The next post will be the last one about Sinestro and then I'll continue on with other big time and famous Hal Jordan's enemies.
