Fictional character biography

Legion is a robotic humanoid containing the consciousness of the Tchk-Tchkii, an insectoid race whose planet was sealed off by the Green Lantern Corps to stop them from conquering other planets. Unable to leave, the Tchk-Tchk began to starve and transferred themselves into a "Soul Jar" to survive. In the modern day, Legion pursues revenge against the Guardians of the Universe and comes into conflict with Hal Jordan. He destroys their armor, but Legion survives as a disembodied consciousness before being returned to Tchk-Tchk.
