Generally the ability to fly is limited to roughly twice the speed of sound (1440 miles per hour) but in certain situations has been known to exceed the speed of light. It manipulates anti-gravitons, and directs molecular movement. In fact, it is fully possible to use this personal force shield as the sole means of life support for the ring wielder (which is why on extended missions, the Green Lanterns never need to use the washroom, or eat, drink, or sleep).įlight: All Lantern rings grant the user the ability to fly. The ring constantly adjusts this personal force shield to make the current environment hospitable to the ring’s wielder, so that they will always have the right amount of gravitational pull, and oxygen needed to survive. These force fields are constantly used by the various Lanterns because it actually allows them to survive in space (filtering out cosmic radiation, and repelling or shielding them from space debris that would kill them if they hit it while flying through space). The general appearance of the energy projections vary between Lantern Corps though, the projections from Red for example, often resemble blood.įorce Fields: The rings can use their energy projection to create force fields of varying sizes and shapes, to fit the needs of the ring-bearer. These blasts can be manipulated into various shapes as long as the Lantern can imagine it and has the willpower to make it happen. Lanterns can also use this energy projection to create and simulate radiation (including Kryptonite). Some people use this projection to create machinery/weapons and project the energy blasts from there (though the strength of the blast is not dependant on that, it is solely dependant on the strength of the ring-wielder). Now the Ryan Reynolds movie doesn’t seem so bad does it?)Įnergy Projection: The user can project blasts of energy from their rings and/or constructs. The original Green Lantern movie concept featured Jack Black who would make things like giant green condom constructs to capture criminals. It allows them to make whatever they need to deal with the problem at hand (including temporary buildings, vehicles, creating giant hands to catch falling people, or if needed, condoms. One of the most important aspects of the Lantern Rings. General Abilities Regardless of Ring Colour:Įnergy Construct Creation: The ability to create energy constructs. So under notables, you may see the same name multiple times (while many such as Sinestro and Hal Jordan have been part of multiple Corps, Guy Gardner is the one most known for wielding multiple rings, often at the same time). Some people are incredibly powerful in multiple Lantern Corps, others are powerful in one, and rather weak in another (but strong enough to still become a Lantern of that corp). Just because you are strong in one emotion, doesn’t mean you aren’t strong in another as well. It should be noted that there are some people who have wielded multiple rings throughout their time as Lanterns. And there is also one special ring that isn’t part of one of the Corps. Not just Green Lanterns, or Red Lanterns, we’re covering all of the various Corps, because as the core of the ring is similar, they each function differently. On our next edition of Legendary Weapons of Comics, we are going onto the Lantern Corps Rings.
