Which would you rather have?

Mjolnir all day unless it's Kyle's ring from his solo run.

the ring personally, id hate lugging mjolnir around

Assuming I'd also gain the means to recharge it, I'd rather have a GL ring.

Depends. If I also get all of Thor's other powers in addition to Mjolnir, itself, I'd go with the hammer. Otherwise, I'd get the power ring.

Ring. In the real world carrying a large hammer around all day isn't very practical and far too conspicuous. Plus you can use the ring to give yourself innate powers.

Ring, with a big ass mallet I would cause unnecessary attention to myself. Also it takes more effort to use. The ring is imo easier to master eventually and it's really versatile. (granted I can recharge it)

hammer easily

in comics lanterns can just will things into being and it turns out fine, in real life i'm inclined to believe it would require a shitload of studying and trial and error to recreate things from human memory, let alone experimental stuff like teleportation. real willpower doesn't work like it does in comics, if it did we'd all be astronauts by the age of 30.

thor's hammer only had one flaw, and that's gone now, and by default you are a functionally immortal, mountain throwing, doesn't have to breathe, immune to earthly diseases, etc god without having to experiment with anything. thor doesn't even need to recharge

I'd rather have the ring, but the hammer would beat the ring in a fight.

What if the hammer left Thor, and Hal's ring joined it? The Adventures of Mjolnir and Power Ring.

If you get Thor's base stats and his inherent powers outside of the hammer itself, then it's no question.

Hammer easily

I have more will than PG, so hand me the ring.

The bio on the power ring claims you have to have an understanding of what you're trying to create, like how a plane's put together and such...

Kyle Raynor kind of put the lie to that, considering all the crazy mecha and stuff he comes up with.

Anyways, unlike with the hammer, you get a computer and preprogrammed protocols to help you operate the ring. You could do like Mongul and just ask the computer to outline all the rings capabilities and how to do them, if you wanted to.

All things considered equal, the ring.

It helps, but it's not necessary.

Id take the hammer and become a god but there is that one thing i would hate though cause i thought thor couldnt fly without his hammer and people say he can and idk.....wait nevermind i want the ring screw that hammer

Imagine Thor's "hammer" inside Hal Jordan's "ring".

heh

sounds like a horrible gay joke

Both

if you want to use all feats. the ring is just as versatile. id go with the ring personally.

i'll take the ring...the ring can do virtually anything..it's way more versatile than the hammer..

much as i love mjolnier and thor, i'd go with a green lantern's ring. lest conspicuous, fits in the palm of my hand and can do a lot of shit.

Mjolnir can be inconspicuous. It can revert into a walking stick, or if you go the Jake Olsen route, you can just summon it via slamming your fist into the ground and willing the transformation.

What if you get shot in the head while being transformed into Jake or your human form, is that the end or do your human form also have Thor durability or some type of healing factor?

What if the same thing happened when your ring was out of juice or for some reason, not on your finger to begin with? Rings auto shields are all over the place in terms of showings.

It depends on the specifics of Mjolnir and what you get with it, ultimately. You could get the classic Donald Blake scenario, in which you slam the stick on the ground to become Thor, but you have the sixty second limitation. You could just be "Thor" 24/7, but you could make yourself a disguise and carry a duffel bag around like the Sigard Jarlson days to carry Mjolnir. You could have the Jake Olsen bit, in which you have two separate forms, but without having a stick to trigger the transformation, but still have the sixty second rule. Or you could have the current Thor bit, in which there's no sixty second rule, but you can transform from a Blake like form to Thor if you wanted.

Ok, I was just asking. Both have advantages and both have limitations...I don't know which one I would want. With Thor powers, you would gain immortality.

Thor power doesn't give immortality..wasn't it Idunn fruit that makes asgardian immortal??what advantage does the hammer have over the ring??

Cool.

You'd be immortal to a point.

He has longevity to a point naturally, but the Idunn apples further contribute to this.

It doesn't require recharging, for one.

Hhhmmm...just thought about it. Doesn't Thor have to ear from the tree (bite the Apple), every century or something to keep his immortality (basically all asgardians)?

I wouldn't be worthy of the hammer and I wouldn't be able to overcome great fear.

You'd have to be a bit thick not to keep the ring charged, imo.

I know some really stupid friends of mine that would wind up killing themselves with the ring somehow. :P

Be glad the ring only picks the best and the brightest, then.

The Hammer can't make me a sandwich while I sit on the couch watching tv.

I would pick Mjolnir, over a standard GL ring.

Kyle Ring, over Mjolnir.


But as cosmic items go, the Quantum or Nega bands seem like a far better choice.

With the hammer comes Thor's abilities too

Quasar doesn't have the ring computer, or auto defenses.

That's a big selling point for a noob, imo.

i'd take the ring, assuming full knowledge of both.

How about the knowledge you get is your own personal knowledge of how they work? Sounds like a cool idea.

well, that would amount to pretty much the same thing for most readers, so..... yeah. gimme the ring.

Well the Cosmic Awareness is a nice substitute to the rings computer. No recharging, and a monster energy manipulator to boot is a nice plus.

The hammer can be conceal like a cane, or become with some one fist like in the Stormbreaker with Walt Simmson!

Hammer all day for me!

All things equal I'll go with the ring, pull a Mongul Jr and have it tell me everything it can do. Then I'd go about setting up a financial empire so large that Bill Gates would be coming to me for loans

pretty sure if you could become thor you could have an actually harem of hot chef women if you wanted to

I will take Thor in a fight over pretty much any GL. But the answer is the ring here, and I'm shocked at how torn the thread is.

Planetary scale storms? The ability to summon the winds of hundreds or thousands of worlds? Being able to absorb virtually any energy blast and send it back anywhere from x10 to x100 fold? Draining someone's soul/lifeforce?

On average, Mjolnir operates on a higher scale than a power ring does.

Conversely, what advantages does a power ring have over Mjolnir outside of creating hard light constructs?

Sure the hammer might make you more powerful but the ring is close enough in terms of power... Plus there is just so much more you can do with it.

Originally posted by JakeTheBank

The ability to allow me to become a very wealthy man without resorting to overt displays of power

I'd have the ring come up with a design to create complex micro circuitry for things like pace makers etc. I'd develope advanced power sources, come up with technology that helps to advance our space program etc. But I'd do it in a way as to not overtly sway the course of human destiny, only give it a subtle nudge here and there lol.

If we get the ring, do we still have the "no usage for personal gain" thing?

I'd assume -or at least I hope- so, I mean we're getting Mjolnir without the "Worthy" stipulation lol.

hal has done that and more. he can even trap powerful mages inside his ring. the ring used to have its own dimension.

Good, then.

Mjolnir would be cool for the weather control and flight and all that stuff but AI would still die if i was shot or stabbed or something. Going with GL ring. Assuming I also get a power battery of course.

I'm assuming your body gets upgraded to Thor level physically or you might even get a copy of Thor's body. Conventional weaponry wouldn't be a problem.

Good thing I wouldn't be subjected to comic book CIS and PIS. I think a lot of cats are thinking in terms of power and superhero stuff. I'm thinking of practical uses. For my own personal gain of course

It'd be nothing for a GL ring to use its capabilities to look at current tech, analyze it, then improve upon its designs and transfer the blue prints onto a damn SD card or something lol. I'd apply for patents or whatever and presto.

are we choosing base on which is more powerful in a fight??cuz if it is i think the hammer is more powerful..but the ring is powerful too..both of them can make us into a high herald..

but if we're choosing base on which is more convenience..i chose the ring everytime..why would i choose a hammer that can do something over a ring that can do anything??that's just weird..

I don't get it either. The choice is fairly obvious imo.

so..we get a ring that we can't even use properly??what's the point of this thread then??if u wanna go that way..are we even worthy to lift up the hammer..

PG can't use it properly because he has lousy will.

Well, they're fighting intergalactic threats all the time, and they spend far too long away from the battery. For one of us, that really shouldn't be a problem...

I always wondered why they never like put the battery inside the ring's dimension or tether the battery to the ring so they could bring it out regardless of their own location. But i guess that would make too much sense for comics and ruin some suspense.
