He’s the most well known and well merchandised version of the character ever, having been around now for sixty years and counting. All key elements of the mythology to this day.
It was the Hal Jordan version which introduced reader to the larger world of the Green Lantern Corps space cops, as well the Guardians of the Universe. His appearance made the character relevant for a new generation of Atomic Age kids, who loved the sci-fi angle to his stories. The cocky Air Force test pilot is considered to be the Green Lantern by most fans. Maybe a combination of the two, a closeted gay man in a prejudiced WWII-era America could be interesting? So I wouldn’t totally rule him out. An updated modern version of Alan Scott appeared in recent years, now an out gay man. He’s not connected to the overall Green Lantern Corps mythos, and if you change that aspect of him, you might as well just use another Green Lantern. He largely disappeared after the ’40s, mostly showing up in second tier roles since then. He said a mysterious oath, charged his ring with a lantern power battery, and created green constructs with his ring. But he was very different from the Lanterns who would come later. Alan ScottĬomics’ first Green Lantern debuted way back in 1940, and quickly became one of DC’s top characters.

Here are our guesses as to which Lanterns could soon become TV stars. This would be ambitious, and a different way to approach a superhero series.īut which two Earth Lanterns will make the cut? There have been several over the course of the past eighty years. I think we could be seeing two separate Lanterns in two totally different eras, with their stories converging at the end. An intriguing factoid in this piece of news is the idea that the show would span several decades. Given his status as Green Lantern’s number one enemy, it makes sense to focus on him as well. That’s two Earth Lanterns, and a new iteration of Sinestro.
