Green Lantern
Green Lantern is the name of a number of fictional superheroes that appear in American comic books published by DC Comics. They fight evil with the aid of power rings that grant them a variety of extraordinary powers.
The first Green Lantern was created in 1940 during the first superhero craze, which began with Superman. Alan Scott usually fought common criminals in New York with the aid of his magic ring. Publication ceased in 1949 during a general decline in the popularity of superhero comics.
In 1959, to capitalize on the booming popularity of science fiction, the Green Lantern character was reintroduced as Hal Jordan, an officer for an interstellar law enforcement agency known as the Green Lantern Corps. Over the years, DC Comics introduced other characters to fill the role. The most prominent of these are Guy Gardner, John Stewart, Kyle Rayner, and Simon Baz.
The Green Lanterns are among DC Comics' more successful properties. They have been adapted to television, video games and two motion pictures. ...more on Wikipedia
