EVERY LANTERN CORPS EXPLAINED: Founders, Oaths and Iconic Members

For almost fifty years there was only one Lantern Corps. Then Geoff Johns gave us the emotional spectrum: red rage, orange greed, yellow fear, green will, blue hope, indigo compassion, violet love, and beyond them death and life. Here's every Lantern Corps explained: who founded it, when it first appeared, how the rings work, the oaths, the iconic members, Blackest Night, and which Corps Lanterns could bring in next.
