Story history — History and later developments — spoilers

Dex-Starr is one of the Earth-born Red Lanterns, alongside Jack Moore. His career also reaches beyond that army: Justice League Odyssey later places him alongside Jessica Cruz, Orion, Starfire and Cyborg against Darkseid. Issue #25 concludes that team adventure; it is not a standalone origin.
