| - Back to the Green Lantern character sheet. The Sinestro Corps are fueled by fear the way Green Lantern rings are fueled by willpower and their powers are very similar, including flight, constructs and communication. Whereas the Green Lanterns seek to bring order to the universe by promoting justice, the Sinestro Corps want to rule the universe through fear. Since Sinestro was drafted back into the Green Lanterns, his corps have gone rogue without his rule to keep them in line. When Sinestro discovered that they had taken over his home planet of Korugar, he forcibly disbanded them, and most of the Corps were captured or killed in the aftermath.
* Ax Crazy: Well over half the team is comprised of violent, unstable psychopaths.
* The Dreaded: To be part of the Sinestro Corps, you need to be able to inspire great fear.
* Egocentric Team Naming: They could have been called the Yellow Lantern Corps, but it was named the Sinestro Corps instead.
* Galactic Conquerors
* Green Lantern Ring: Yellow power rings work pretty much exactly like their green counterparts, with the addition of being able to sense their opponents' fears and project them as energy constructs.
* I Know What You Fear: Sinestro rings can materialize a victim's fears out of energy.
* Psycho Rangers
* Shout-Out: You can find a Xenomorph and a Predator and many others in group shots.
* And fitting, to boot: where else would horror movie monsters find a home than the Corps of Fear?
