Comic Book History
Who is TOMAR-RE?
TOMAR-RE is a DC Comics character, and a member of the intergalactic peace group the Green Lantern Corps. He debuted in Green Lantern #6 in a story written by John Broome with art by Gil Kane.

TOMAR-RE with his kind
TOMAR-RE is a pivotal member of the Green Lantern Corps by training its new members.
Green Lantern TOMAR-RE's most famous dealt with the planet Krypton. Krypton, which is Superman's birth planet, was growing increasingly unstable. It was due to explode, TOMAR-RE sought to use a rare compound called stellarium to absorb some of the tectonic pressure. TOMAR-RE already gathered the compound, and was en route to Krypton when a yellow solar flare blinded him, and forced him to drop the stellarium. He quickly recovered, but discovered he was blind. He gathered what little stellarium he could without his sight, and proceeded towards Krypton. He was closing in when his vision started to clear. The first thing he saw upon his sight returning was Krypton exploding. The Guardians recovered Tomar and brought him back to Oa, where he healed and rested.
TOMAR-RE later grew to an honored senior member of the Green Lantern Corps.
The death of TOMAR-RE came at the hands of the villain Goldface. His ring chose another earthman as its successor, John Stewart.
