    Deadman is the only of the 12 resurrected that has a White Lantern Ring, he had brought a baby bird back to life. Hawk thinks that Boston will be able to bring his brother, Don Hall, back to life. But Don remains at peace. His task is to embrace life and find the one who will replace the white entity. Boston and Dawn leave to begin searching for the one who will wield the white light. He tries everyone from Resurrection Man to Batman, and he ends up getting a lesson on wanting to live.
