History
Edit
OriginEdit
An employee of Ferris Aircraft, Kalmaku discovered Hal Jordan's secret identity as Green Lantern and became a confidant and sidekick of the Emerald Warrior.
Early LifeEdit
Thomas Kalmaku was a young Eskimo engineer at Ferris Aircraft, also the employer of test pilot Hal Jordan. For a while, he was nicknamed "Pieface" (a play on Eskimo Pie), however this has not been used for some time. He had a girlfriend named Tegra. They later married, but separated. Kalmaku was one of the few people who knew Hal Jordan's secret, and kept a journal of Green Lantern's adventures. He often assisted the hero, or required rescuing. Hal had considered him as a replacement GL, and the Guardians of the Universe even offered him a Green Lantern Ring (which he declined). Kalmaku was revealed to be one of the "Chosen" who formed the New Guardians. He had the superpower to bring out the best in people. However, he decided to leave the New Guardians to be with his family. After Hal's (several) deaths, he went on a final mission on Hal's behalf, eventually reconstructing the planet Oa. Kalmaku is also a father, and about to become an equal partner in Carol Ferris's aircraft company.

NotesEdit
- Although this character was originally introduced during DC's Earth-One era of publication, their existence following the events of the 1985-86 limited series Crisis on Infinite Earths remains intact. However, some elements of the character's Pre-Crisis history may have been altered or removed for Post-Crisis New Earth continuity, and should be considered apocryphal.
