Saint Walker is a fictional comic book character appearing in American comic books and other associated media published by DC Comics. Created by writer Geoff Johns and artist Ethan Van Sciver for the ''Green Lantern'' series, Saint Walker is an alien member of the galactic Blue Lantern Corps, an organization dedicated to spreading peace and harmony through the power of hope throughout the universe. ==Fictional character history== Walker was a priest on his home planet of Astonia (with a wife and two children), which was doomed, as its ancient sun was dying. Saint Walker manages to calm his despairing people and give them hope in the face of extinction, which causes a Blue Lantern ring to choose him as a member of the Blue Lantern Corps, stating that he "has the ability to instill great hope". With his ring, he sets his sun's age back 8.9 billion years, thereby saving his home planet.〔''Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps'' #1 (July 2009)〕 Saint Walker and his fellow Blue Lanterns are first introduced in the midst of the ''Final Crisis'' event as part of the build-up to the ''Blackest Night'' storyline. During the Final Crisis, Hal Jordan and John Stewart of the Green Lantern Corps have just been ambushed by the Red Lantern Corps, who take the rogue former Green Lantern Sinestro from their custody. After Jordan is injured during the conflict, his wounds are healed when he first comes into contact with Saint Walker.〔''Final Crisis: Rage of the Red Lanterns'' #1 (October 2008)〕 In the ''Blackest Night'' storyline, having joined Hal Jordan's and Indigo-1's efforts to rally one member of each Corps to attempt to destroy the Black Lantern power battery, Saint Walker agrees to use his power ring to ease Larfleeze's hunger while they work together. When deputizing an Earth hero to assist in the current crisis until the rest of the Blue Lantern Corps can arrive, Walker's ring selects Barry Allen as a temporary Blue Lantern. After Nekron is defeated, Walker works with Carol Ferris to heal Mera of the influence of her red power ring. In Justice League of America #55 (2011), the character joins the titular team in battling Eclipso, and attempts to assist the resurrected Hank Henshaw against Doomsday on Batman's orders.〔Renaud, Jeffrey.
