In the Brightest Day, in blackest night
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil’s might
Beware my power, Green Lantern’s light! - Green Lantern oath

One of the most powerful forces in the DC Comic universe. The Green Lantern refers to anyone who wields a green Power Ring. This ring gives the user the power to emerge green energy in almost any form he/she chooses. This green energy can take the form of a powerful energy blast or take any solid form (like a weapon or a force field). It can do almost anything including creating wormholes to travel the universe or surround one's allies in a green shield. Its only limited by the willpower and imagination of the user, though it does have a power limit that can be replenished by a green lantern (hence the name) that each one has.

The rings were created by the Dark Lord... oops, wrong ring, I mean the Guardians of the Universe in an attempt to bring order and justice to the universe. They then gave the rings to people that were noble enough and had enough willpower to wield them. After a Green Lantern dies, the ring will seek out a new noble master. The Guardians direct the Lanterns to bring order and peace to their sector of the galaxy. When the Green Lanterns are together, they are referred to as the Green Lantern Corp.

The Green Lanterns of earth included Allan Scott, Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, Kyle Rayner, and Jade. Others from earth also wore the ring but only had it for a short time.

Why is the Green Lantern cool. Well for one, he/she is a very powerful force. Together, the Green Corp is almost unstoppable. Green Lantern ranks as one of the most powerful members of the Justice League; right up there with Superman. Another reason is that his powers are a bit different than the usual Flying + Super strength. Instead of just flying, he surrounds himself in a green force field and takes off or he might summon a plane, bird, or even dragon (All green of course) and have them fly him somewhere. That brings me to my niext point, Lantern is cool because he is unlimited in his power and fighting style. Not only that, he is unlimited in character. Because there are more than one of them, you can choose which Lantern you like best or the one you relate to the most. They are also not limited to earth stories or earthling characters. The Green Lanterns travel the universe taking us to new worlds. (and now for the overstatement of the post. I need it to bring this to a conclusion.) The Lanterns are as unlimited as the universe itself. (see, a good close.)

Flaws in the character? Their powers are weakened by the color yellow. The color Yellow? What kind of stupid weakness is that?
