A Force Gathers:
For several months now, Atrocitus has been gathering the Red Lanterns to him. The rings have found those with great rage in their hearts.
There. Bleez. Her life was destroyed by the Sinestro Corps. She was tortured, her family and people murdered, all for the entertainment of one of the members of the Corps. Then the ring found her. Freed her. Unleashed her rage. Her tormentors no longer live, thanks to the power Atrocitus's rings gave her.
There. Laira. Betrayed by the Green Lantern Corps for doing what she believed to be her duty. Stripped of all honor. Her love killed by the Sinestro Corps, along with every member of his family.
Vice. His mate consumed. Serron. Her family tortured and killed one at a time before her eyes.
All of these Red Lanterns with a purpose, given direction and power by the red rings.
"Soon," he promises them all. "Soon, we will have our vengeance on those who have wronged us. Beginning with Sinestro."
Behind him, Malvolio watches silently. Atrocitus is waiting for the right time. The half-human son of a Green Lantern had used the Manhunters as soldiers. The same Manhunters that destroyed his whole sector. His whole family.
He feels the rage build in him again. The rage flows through his veins, replacing his blood, replacing his heart. Malvolio is rage.
And he will direct it. Very soon. Against all those who have wronged him.
