Razer is a character from The Green Lanterns: The Animated Series who started as an antagonist and later nearly became the main protagonist.

Personality and traits
Razer presumably was once a peaceful man before his involvement with the Red Lanterns. Though he was very protective of his wife Ilana and his planet, it is presumed that he had high respect for others but he was willing to fight when someone threatened to harm them. After losing his beloved wife, he became a Red Lantern, allowing evil within to take over and becoming ruthless with rage. However, even in this state, he did seem to have some moral conscience, as he questioned Zilius Zox and Atrocitus about their methods of killing, and hesitated before attempting to kill Shiyr Rev.

After abandoning the Red Lanterns and joining the Green Lantern cause, he displayed a sharp and biting nature towards the Interceptor crew and showed little concern for their lives. He often made sarcastic quips about them, mainly Kilowog, and began on a rough relationship with the crew before growing closer to them over time. Razer soon learned to trust them, and developed something of a friendship with Aya, even going as far as protecting her in battles. This led to him developing romantic feelings for her, but believed that she was only a robot and did not feel the same emotions that he had. He at last admitted his feelings for her on the brink of her death after she was wounded mortally by the Anti-Monitor, but when she returned and questioned him of his feelings for her, he informed her that he was confused of her appearance and did not really love her, though the true feelings behind this are unknown. After this, Aya became so depressed that she abandoned the Interceptor crew despite Razer and Hal's attempts to convince her to return. In "Dark Matter," after mortally wounding Razer and realizing what it was that she had done, she gave up her life to save the universe from the destruction of the Manhunters. Razer begged her not to leave him, but she promised that she would always be with him before disappearing. Following the end of the Manhunter war, Razer left Oa to search the universe for her, believing that she was still out there.
