As the Green Lanterns approached the picturesque planet, Varn and the rest of the Lanterns were unaware as an asteroid literally reared its ugly head. Luckily, one of the Lanterns, the four-armed Pravaek, had arrived late, spoiling the rock-head’s ambush. At the sound of a cosmic collision, Varn turned to see the orange construct and the newest arrival. "Pravaek Tura, Homeworld of Da', Sector 1423. A pleasure to meet more of the core," the newcomer said, introducing himself. “The real question is, who the heck is that?!” Varn exclaimed, as the craggy enemy recovered from the blow. It was a rhetorical question, but Varn’s ring decided to respond anyway. “It appears that this creature resembles the one the Guardians know as ‘Blume,’” the mustachioed face answered. “A construct of the Orange Lantern.” Blume turned his massive head to direct another attack on the Lanterns. As the orange beam raced towards the small crew, it was met by a massive, elephantine construct. Varn gritted his teeth, trying to maintain his focus, as his construct shook its shaggy head, squaring its massive shoulders, and bucking at the orange beam with its ridge tusks. “Come on you piece of shtako,” Varn shouted. “Show me what you got!” Unfortunately, Blume had more than Varn. The orange beam pierced the mammoth, sending green splinters spiraling out into space.
