"Fear Itself" is the eighth episode of Green Lantern: The Animated Series. It aired on April 21st, 2012.

Overview[]

With supplies running low, Hal and Kilowog search an uncharted Class G Planet for food and find themselves each stranded on different sides of the two warring species that live here. Meanwhile, Razer must bear the emotional brunt of recharging his power ring.

Synopsis[]

Aya informs Kilowog, Hal Jordan, and Razer that the Interceptor is out of rationed food. In order to replenish their supplies, the Interceptor lands at a nearby habitable planet and the two Green Lanterns are given a Edible Biomass Detector to find compatible biological lifeforms. Razer does not need to accompany them because his species has a long-term storage organ in their bodies for food. Kilowog instead finds a village of natives. The tribespeople appear to be using a yellow crystal as an iron substitute, making weapons and armor from it. Meanwhile, Hal encounters a different alien altogether near a large strip mine. The floating jellyfish-like aliens called Nidara are mining yellow crystal and taking it away from the planet. Kilowog's natives and Hal's Nidara come into conflict because the tribespeople believe the Nidara are taking away a vital resource to their primative tribe. Unbeknownst to them, the yellow crystal present is the same yellow crystal found in the Spider Guild prison, sapping the Green Lantern's Power Rings when in close proximity, as well as causing fear when in close contact with humanoids. The Nidara are immune to the crystal, and striving to remove it from the tribepeople's planet to remove its' influence from them. In a large battle the affected Kilowog and the tribepeople attack the Nidara, until Hal can convince Kilowog about the yellow crystal. The Nidara taking the tribepeople's sacred statues from their village, which had been made from yellow crystal. The episode ends with Aya giving Razer a new oath to comfort him, which he appreciates. After she leaves, he silently reveals it doesn't work, so Razer secretly recharges his ring using the original oath with great sadness.

Trivia[]

  • Although it was never named, this planet may very well be Qward. A later episode, "Scarred", revealed it was the only planet with a heavy presence of yellow aurrem. Perhaps, enough still to make a power battery?
  • Aya made an alternate Red Lantern Corps Oath for Razer.
