Magneto is A LOT more powerful than Dr. Polaris. GL shields have never really impressed me - every time I read an issue they're getting smashed. Mags control over the EM spectrum allows him to sense whatever is getting through the shield. For example - light. Magneto can then generate light to go through the shield, then once it's inside the shield, convert it to lethal radiation.
Current Magneto doesn't even have to work that hard. He controls reality...oops, no more shield, no more ring, no more Hal.
When did hal go cosmic level? You talking about his spectre form? I am familiar with the Green Lanterns, and they are tough. I refer to kyle or John because I actually like those two. The others or just creepy. Guy "I am not a third rate hero" Gardner. And Hal "please forgive me for my sins against the universe and make me a hero again" Jordan. Anyway, a green lantern is equivalent to magneto's current power level or right under it. Kyle--teleportation, and containing an exploding star. John, destroying a planet, building machines that can do whatever he thinks of, and taking out fenris after he kicked the JLA's collective buts. But magneto has always been able to amp up his power level by tapping into earths magnetic grid. When push comes to shove magneto can surpass anyone.

Magneto doesnt have COMPLETE controll over the EM spectrum, otherwise he would have been able to stop a sentinal from destroying genosha
Magneto was stuck in a wheelchair at a Genoshan hospital at the time. He only had enough power to stay alive.

I'm just saying Magneto can't make a GL kill themselves because the ring prevents them from killing AND does its best to protect the GL from mortal harm.
ok, fair enough. Lots of other ways to make GL die...
magento losses come on be real people and by the way his bac http://dccomics.com/comics/?cm=4153
An 'average' Green Lantern?
Are you familiar with their books?
You mean like John or Hal league, or like Ch'p and Kilowog league? Either way, if they put there mind to it (and finished things within a reasonable amount of time), they could take Magneto. Some less than most though. Magneto's not the greatest when it comes to physical stamina, if a GL could form a vice around his energy field and exert enough force on his shield, it would wear him out. And with a GL's protective aura, I'm not sure the iron in the blood trick would work. If he can instantly place a black hole within someone's brain or something like that, I'd be more inclined to take him over a GL. As is, a well trained GL can probably stalemate Mags if they went all out, and a high end GL would take him with much less effort, but not easily.
But then again, that's all dependent on if the Power of Oa isn't within the realm of the EM spectrum. If it is, they might actually be in trouble against Mags. I know Oan power can substitute for and create energies within the EM spectrum, and these energies can be used energies to recharge a GL Ring if necessary, but I'm not sure Oan Power is wholely an EM based energy source, if at all.
Hope that doesn't confuse you too much. 😂
Oan energy is part of the EM spectrum, apparently, since Photon was able to absorb and process it. If that's the case, all GL's are in serious trouble against Magneto.
GL Hal (the best of them) was narrowly beaten by Dr. Polaris, and Polaris didn't even try any of the Magneto tricks.
Magneto also controls light, he could easily blast a GL with yellow-colored radiation, which would go right through the shields. Remember, yellow weakness is back.
^ Interesting.
That answers my question then. If the Oan Power is part of the EM Spectrum, a GL is in trouble against Magneto (or Surfer). He can counter all of their attacks, and go through their shields to pull off the old "forcibly remove the iron in their blood" technique (at least on some of the Humanoid GLs, some don't have iron in their body composition).
