HISTORY
The original homeworld of Red Lantern Atrocitus, Ryut was laid waste by the Manhunters in what became known as the Massacre of Sector 666. In more recent times, it has been revealed as the homeworld of the Black Lantern Corps. When the Anti-Monitor was defeated by Superboy-Prime, his body was thrown across the stars. It came to rest, albeit briefly, on Ryut, where the Central Power Battery of the Black Lanterns formed up and around it.
Ryut was used of the so-called "Entity Thief" who was later revealed to be Krona.
