HISTORY

A member of the Corps for many years, Wissen's arrival on Veltre as Green Lantern ended a millennium of civil war. In time, he came to be regarded as a god by his people.

One day, a trio of Green Lanterns came to Veltre to stabilize its planetary core. He had not seen other members of the Corps in years, and was surprised by their appearance. Wissen's mind was wandering as the three alien Green Lanterns saved his world from a peril he hadn't realized existed. Shown to be only a man, he believed he had betrayed his planet, the Green Lantern Corps, and himself.

His high priestess, Da'n had made him realize he was still important and needed by his people. - Green Lantern Corps Annual #3

Wissen was most recently seen with the majority of the Green Lantern Corps under the thrall of Krona. - Green Lantern: Emerald Warriors #8

POWERS AND WEAPONS

As a Green Lantern, Wissen possesses a power ring and power battery.

GLCWP NOTE

This story takes place sometime after the destruction of Krypton, and after Hal Jordan resigned from the GLC in Green Lantern Vol. 2 #181. One of the rescuing Green Lanterns refers to the planet Veltre's instability as the Krypton Effect. Earlier, Jordan used "stellarium" control rods to stabilize the planet Omnicron Ceti IV, a techinque developed by Tomar-Re, but employed too late in Krypton's case.

Also of note, Wissen's surprise at seeing other members of the Corps. He had almost forgotten there were other Green Lanterns. My guess is the three Green Lanterns were sent by the Guardians of the Universe shortly before they left our dimension with the Zamarons.

Wissen's costume changed from the standard body suit, adding a pink coat and purple cape clasped by Green Lantern insignia.
