Green Lantern (Comic Book)

From Mental Block

Green Lantern is a long-running series of comic books published by DC Comics. Created in 1940, and reintroduced by DC in 1959, Green Lantern is a superhero who derives his power from a ring that grants him superhuman powers. Over the years, multiple characters have taken on the role of Green Lantern. The 1959 reboot also introduced the Green Lantern Corps, revealing that Earth's Green Lantern was part of a much larger intergalactic organization of heroes with similar rings and powers.
