I'm not talking about any parallex GL or Superman prime, I'm talking about regular everyday Superman vs everyday Green Lantern..point blank...
Leonheart: You think people haven't "already" used kryptonite to exploit Superman's "weakness"? Wake up and smell the java, many enemies "try" and use Kryptonite to topple Superman and in the end Superman's battle intellect reigns supreme..
In the past many villains overcame the power of the ring and gave GL a good ole fashioned spankin', the leader of the JL and overall quitisential superhero of all time would find a way as well, you're doing Superman an injustice by saying Green Lantern would simply use his ring, create Kryptonite and knock Superman form pillar to post, Superman is not THAT simple, you compare him to a mere soldier, this man leads Green lantern(and the entire Justic Guild for that matter), I just can't see Kal-EL lose that stupidly and easily...
No, Dooms didn't have a weakness in which Green lantern could exploit but that is irrelevant, you're saying that if GL doesn't find a weakness against an opponent then he and his ring is helpless?
In order for the Green Lantern to "create" Kryptonite he needs to know the composites used in its ingredients, otherwise it would just be a green rock...Besides that GL's power is based on willpower, imagniaiton etc...if he doesn't fully believe he can beat Superman he would lose..
Actually, a Green Lantern doesn't need to know how something is built to make it, he just needs a simple understanding of how it works. And from what I've heard, a Green Lantern (can't remember which) has already made Kryptonite with his ring, so that arguement's out. And to beat Superman, it depends on the GL also. Kyle would lose, John could come close, but would eventually fall. Hal has the best chance against Supes, being that he's the more experienced and the strongest willed, and if he knew he needed to beat Superman, he'd know he had to believe it. And as far as battle intellect goes, Hal was a war hero before becoming a GL, and spent years fighting intergalactic threats that would give Superman hell on nearly a regular basis. He was also the Green Lantern that beat every other Green Lantern, and against about 3600 strong, that's a hell of a feat. I'd say if there's anyone on the league that has a chance against Superman, Hal's one of the people on that list.
Oh, and you don't see Superman losing to simple kyptonite? I guess you don't remember Batman doing it then.
And, it's League, not Guild, if you didn't know already.😉
Tron:When did Batman actually defeat Superman? Are you referring to the "cartoon"(the source deemed unofficial by yourself on another thread??), that's the "only" time I remember Batman ever getting the upper-hand on Supes and he still didn't "win" the fight...
Besides the cartoon I want you to show me an actual link or comic where Batman beat Superman using Kryptonite or did you just "hear" someone say it on this forum and "assume" you can use it to your advantage??The truth of the matter is those two "never" battled head on and to the death in "any" comic book, you're just going off of bs..Until you post a comic summary or link then I'm not going to even acknowledge that statement further...
Ok, Green Lantern "can or already has" created Kryptonite with his/her ring, BUT yet you say that Kyle and John would lose in a battle with Superman...WHY..if your total argument is based on Superman getting beaten so easily by any lantern creating Kryptonite then WHY and HOW would he defeat Kyle and John in your eyes?? Would thier Kryptonite not be as effective as Hal's?? If Superman CAN somehow "manage" to defeat Kyle and John despite the Kryptonite factor "in your eyes" then how come he can't "manage" to do the same with Hal??
everyone seems to give kyle a hard time...saying he can be smacked around by supes...but hal would axe supes.....the two GL's cant be that spaced in their abilities..can they?.....if kyle believes that he NEEDS to beat superman...then why cant he?....hal has more experience i guess....but if both created kryptonite....kryptonite is kryptonite.....it does the job....
It's in "The Dark Knight Returns" comic series OJ, NOT any cartoon. It's talked about all the time on here, I'm surprised you don't know about it, it's pretty much common knowledge on here.
And, my opinion about Hal winning winning over Kyle or John has nothing to do with the whole kryptonite arguement, I was getting away from that arguement altogether.
why would it be tough to trash hal if he could trash kyle...which he couldn't....is hal supposed to be more powerful than kyle?....if hal can conjur up kryptonite...whats to stop kyle from doin the same thing?
hal has more willpower and experience than kyle. kyle is too cocky.
with kryptonite he has a chance
but i still say supes.
