Perdoo (New Earth)

Perdoo is a member of the Green Lantern Corps.

History

Perdoo lived in an insane asylum on his home world Qualar IV. His insanity gave him an edge over his compatriots: he felt no fear, as he was completely unaware of his surroundings.

When the badly injured Green Lantern El'qa Squa Zreenah was forced to retreat during his fight against the Statejians, he landed on Qualar IV in the hopes of finding a temporary replacement. The first couple of natives were so frightened of his ring that they fainted. Perdoo was the only one without fear, simply because he was completely oblivious to danger.

Perdoo accepted the ring and engaged the Statejian fleet. He thought they were large flitterbys, insects that lived on his planet, and grabbed the lead Statejian's ship with his ring, examining it with a giant ring-constructed magnifying glass. The Statejians, impressed by his apparent fearlessness and demoralized by the later destruction of their leader, fled in fear. Perdoo handed the ring back to El'qa, and readmitted himself to the asylum.^[1]

When the Guardians chose to recruit two Lanterns per sector, Perdoo was given the second Ring. His fellow Lanterns give him plenty of room during battle because his constructs are erratic and some Lanterns have claimed that those constructs have attacked them; this hasn't been confirmed.^[2]
