Lord Graven alomost defeated the mighty Kyle Rayner after he defeated John Stewart and a slew of other green lantern corps.....
So Graven is pretty powerful.... Heres the story...
parts of issue 74 and 75
#74 - It turns out Donna came to Gateway City looking for Wonder Woman. She explains that some unknown foe has destroyed twelve planets, and with them nineteen Darkstars. Kyle offers to help and they meet up with the other seventeen Darkstars (yep, that's all that's standing between the unknown enemy and total destruction) on the planet Rann. The group is still preparing defenses when the enemy shows up. Donna and Kyle lead a successful space battle, but the problem lies with the ships that made it to the planet. The Darkstars there put up an admirable fight, but they are simply too overwhelmed. John Stewart, leader of the Darkstars, falls at the hand of the enemy leader, LORD GRAYVEN. The story is continued in the next issue, but that is a pretty good cliff-hanger, eh?
#75 - LORD GRAYVEN turns out to be another of Darkseid's sons. He wants to take his place as ruler of Apokolips and needs a weapon from Rann in order to complete his goal. Kyle is the last hope for Rann, the other Darkstars are down or busy fighting Grayven's minions. John Stewart, nearly dead, manages to use the weapon Grayven was looking for in order to defeat him, but Kyle's work isn't finished. The city where the battle took place was really a city above the planet, and all the destruction caused by Grayven had caused it to fall out of orbit. It's up to Kyle to save it, which he's not even sure he can do, but tries anyway. He answers the question he went to Gotham, Fawcett and Gateway for, he now knows why he is a hero. Also on the plus side he and Donna decide to talk and everyone's happy. Kyle does have one unanswered question, though. GRAYVEN was so intent on pleasing his father that Kyle wonders what happened to his father. There's definitely more to come on that front in the next few issues as we continue another long-standing superhero team. . .
