Caolan finds his way to Earth-0, more precisely to the Space Station above Earth-0. There he finds some Radiant Dead and is barely able to escape their attack. He does learn that part of the Space Station has fallen to Earth, and knows he needs to find their target, John Stewart.
He is able to track down John in Metropolis, and just in time to save him from a Radiant Dead Varron. Caolan is able to over power Varron and get John help at the Steelworks. He is there when John wakes up, and agrees to help John track down the Revenant Queen, in the Amazon.
While in the Amazon, Caolan and John fight back the Radiant Dead and the Queen's attack. John is taken away and things look bleak for Caolan and Earth-0.
Oath
I am the Lantern in the Dark,
The Torch that batters back the night,
Let Evil cower in the light,
Of all who wear the Lantern's mark.
