    Origin

    Kari Limbo was an psychic entertainer at a circus when she met Guy Gardener before he became a Green Lantern. The two of them fell deeply in love. In the midst of their romance, Hal Jordan decided to leave Earth and asked Guy to take his place while he was gone. Hal was unaware that his power batter had been sabotaged, and the battery exploded the first time Guy tried to charge the ring. Kari, Hal, and the rest of the world all assumed Guy had died in the explosion.

    Hal comforted Kari over the loss of Guy. Though Kari's grief led her to blame Hal at first for everything that had happened, the two eventually fell in love and, after some time passed, they decided to get married. Unfortunately, Guy was not dead - the explosion had sent Guy to the Phantom Zone and he could see everything that was happening outside of it. Just before the wedding, Guy managed to reach out to Kari telepathically, leading Kari to realize that Guy was still alive and to call off the wedding. Hal went to rescue Guy, resulting in Guy being alive but comatose.

    Kari felt that she couldn't marry Hal if Guy was alive, but when Guy came out of his coma he felt too hurt and betrayed to renew their relationship. Hal and Guy both moved on and Kari was left alone.

    Kari comes to the Green Lantern Citadel to ask Hal and his team of Earthbound Green Lanterns to help her help Guy. She can sense he is in danger but needs their help to save him. Hal agrees and the team save Guy from Appa Ali Apsa and his team of Honor Guard Lanterns.

    Then later Kari is walking around when she is psychically attacked by Glorious Godfrey while is his spreading is word of hate of superheros.

    After the events of Legends, Kari is back to her normal self, and again she gets a vision of Guy doing something dangerous. This time she goes directly to Guy and learns that he is planning on attacking Russia because he belives Kilowog, John Stewart and Katma Tui have defected. Kari uses reverse psyclogally on Guy, but it does't work and Guy flies off to Russia anyway. Kari is forced to warn the rest of the Lanterns about Guy actions.

    On New Years Eve, Kari gets a vision again that Guy is going to do something to hurt the team. Again she is too late and this time Guy has posioned the team with a drug that makes them all drunk. She then injects Guy with the same drug as well as drinking it herself. Theis way everyone is on the same playing field. She then tells Hal she is no longer in love with him so Arias doesn't need to jelous but warns them that one of Hal's ex-loves is on their way. She then tries to convince Guy that she still loves him but the hot head he is could not belive it and flies off to join the Justice League, leaving Kari heart broken once again.

    Death

    During Zero Hour, it was revealed that Kari Limbo died with the other residents of Coast City when Mongul and Cyborg Superman destroyed it. During Underworld Unleashed, Neron tried to temp Guy Gardner with bringing Kari back from the dead, alongside Kilowog, Ice, and Gardner's family. Gardner did not succumb to Neron's temptation.
