Biography
His father was a scientist where he lived with his wife and child peacefully. This was until the day his father was chosen to be a Green Lantern. (Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps v1 #43)
This saw numerous Sinestro Corpsmen arrive at the scene in order to kill Tomar-Tu for the death of Romat-Ru but they were opposed by Hal Jordan. Jordan intended for Tomar to be judged under the laws of the Green Lantern Corps. The event served as one of the points that fractured the alliance that was made between the Green Lantern Corps and the Sinestro Corps. (Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps v1 #24) Hostilities were stopped with the Sinestro Corps under Soranik Natu departing Mogo. Tomar-Tu was stripped of his status as a Green Lantern with him wanting to serve his sentence as penance for his actions. Jordan managed to convince Stewart that Tomar-Tu's ring should go to a sentient on Xudar to continue the line of Xudarian Green Lanterns with it selecting Somar-Le as his replacement. (Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps v1 #25) He remained in the Sciencells where Somar-Le would regularly visit him as she sought to understand why a hero of her people would murder anyone. Tomar during his time imprisoned had much time to think over his actions and decided that he had done a correct thing as Romat-Ru would only have escaped custody after which he would have killed someone else. Thus, Tomar came to believe that only through killing could justice be achieved and decided that this was his path. Whilst talking to Hal Jordan from his cell, a Darkstar Exo-Mantle appeared before him looking for a volunteer where it inducted him into their ranks in enforcing justice as Darkstar One. He then departed in his new armor and sought to continue his goal in eradicating evil. (Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps v1 #42) Tomar-Tu then came to head the Darkstars who were all linked to one another and powered by the captive Controllers as they began to target criminals for elimination throughout the universe. (Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps v1 #42) Among his first acts was going to Earth's Stryker's Prison where he killed Goldface for the murder of his father. (Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps v1 #44)
Overview
Personality and attributes
After murdering Romat-Ru, he came to conclude that his actions were righteous as he reasoned that if taken into custody that the Xudarian criminal would only have escaped and killed more innocent lives. Thus, Tomar believed he had achieved a lasting justice by eliminating the criminal in order to save more lives. As such, he stated that he came to have no regrets over the murder and in fact if faced with the choice he would have done it again. By this point, he stated that he was a killer and would kill again so that he could purge the universe of criminals. He showcased an example of his father Tomar-Re who died at the hands of the Earth supervillain Goldface after that criminal had escaped. Tomar-Tu believed that if criminals were killed then they would not escape to kill again. As such, he came to believe that if he were to join the Emerald Space afterlife for Green Lanterns that he would meet his father there with a clear conscience despite murdering criminals that surrendered. (Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps v1 #42)
