However, Parallax didn't account for its host's amazing willpower which caused Parallax's plan to take years. (Which was later revealed to be an energy construct created by Parallax and Sinestro's manipulation to the creature's creation with his own Qwardian ring, created as the final stage of Jordan's susceptibility to the impurity in order to break his will), and Jordan's destruction of the Central Battery, which allowed Parallax to graft itself onto Jordan's soul. Parallax's control over Jordan became nearly complete with Jordan's grief over the destruction of Coast City, and it was Parallax who was responsible for Jordan's subsequent murderous activity, his apparent killing of Sinestro. Parallax spent years influencing Hal, causing him increasing self-doubt, then fear and notably his premature whitening at the temples.

Sinestro hated Hal, Parallax chose Jordan as its tool to free itself. Parallax (Hal Jordan) confronting the Cyborg Superman. However, over the coming years, the being that at the time was trapped inside the Central Battery, found away to escape its imprisonment through Hal Jordan. With great will power and defense against fear, Hal Jordan was the perfect selection for Green Lantern and proved it on a number of a occasions. The Fear Entity that became Parallax's origin is as follows above and below how it came to possess Jordan.Ĭenturies later, after the death of Lantern Abin Sur, a Human by the name of Hal Jordan became the Green Lantern of Sector 2814 for the first time. This idea of Parallax was retconned and Hal cleared of his supervillain career in the series, Green Lantern: Rebirth. The storyline began in Green Lantern #50 with its seeds planted in GL #48. Originally, in 1994, DC Comics wanted to get rid of Hal Jordan as Green Lantern.

When the renegade Sinestro was imprisoned in the Power Battery himself, his Qwardian yellow power ring tapped into Parallax's power and awakened it. Thus, when recruiting new Green Lanterns, the Guardians were careful to look for recruits that were largely fearless. This was the reason why the rings were useless against the color yellow: Parallax weakened its power over the corresponding spectrum hence only someone with the willpower to overcome great fear could master the power ring. Being yellow in color, Parallax eventually came to be referred to as simply 'the yellow impurity.' Parallax had lain dormant for billions of years, its true nature hidden by the Guardians to prevent anyone from trying to free it.

The Guardians of the Universe later imprisoned Parallax within the Central Power Battery on Oa using fear's opposite energy, willpower. It was known that at some point, the Parallax Entity once fought against the Spectre when the Spirit of Vengeance sought to eliminate its kind from influencing living beings but despite his attempts, Spectre failed. This parasite was the sentient embodiment of fear, traveling from world to world and causing entire civilizations to destroy themselves out of paranoia. Parallax is a demonic parasitic entity dating back to the dawn of time.

Parallax was shown to be the second Embodiment of Emotion that was formed when living beings began to fear for their existence. The subtle influences of the Entity brought about the formation of living beings which in turn formed the Emotional Electromagnetic Spectrum. Its creation came at the dawn of existence when the Life Entity entered into the universe and sheltered itself on the planet Earth. The Parallax Entity is a demonic looking parasitic cosmic entity that is the sentient Embodiment of Fear in the Emotional Spectrum.
