You should be more careful about tossing about words like "ignorant" particularly when you haven't done much research on the topic at hand.
For one. SOmeone mention lighting. LIGHTING? WW has took lightning from an enraged zues. You think Thor has what it takes to out do zues?
Perhaps due to the "lets compromise all our other characters to make superman look better" curse, DC portrays it's gods as much weaker than Marvel. Thor probably could take DC Zeus although he would not stand a chance against Marvel Zeus.
Thor's lightning, btw, is far more powerful than anything Wonder Woman can handle. Thor effortlessly incapacitated Hercules with a single bolt of lightning, did the same to the hulk (not even major sustained lightning assault, just a casual gesture bringing forth a single powerful lightning bolt), etc... If he really turned it on they would all be dead.
The Gl's can shield themselves from lighting.MM is going to be intangible and unable tobe hit by lightning.
Do they have FTL reflexes? Will they be able to raise their shields or will MM be able to go intangible before they are electrocuted? If MM goes intangible before the fight, or is lucky enough to go intangible just before multiple lightning bolts rip through him, what will he do, stay intangible forever?
In any case, Thor has created lightning millions of times stronger than earth lighting. Can the green lantern's energy based shields hold up against that kind of power? I doubt it. GL shields are no different from Quasar's or Silver Surfer's shields and Thor has busted through those with his bare hands.
Supeman can withstand some lightning. It may hurt him a bit if it's magic, but he sure as hell ain't gonna die or be knocked out from it.
He had trouble with lightning that was only 100 times hotter than a standard lightning bolt but Thor has called forth energies millions of times greater than that on a planetary scale.
Flash won't be hit at all.
He's fast, but he can't escape something that's everywhere at once. There's nowhere to run.
And people are still acting like a green Lantern is some one to be played with. They are for all intents and purposes DC version's of Quasars or silver surfers.
More like quasar in terms of energy constructs but the surfer can do much much more. Not even in the same class.
Two of them is too much for the surfer.
They wouldn't even get to fight one on one or even two on one with the surfer as their shields would already have given way under the combined energy assault from Thor and Surfer resulting in the incineration of the fragile bodies of the GL's.
What tips the scale so dramatically in favor of Thor and Surfer is their ability to summon wide-area energy assaults far beyond the capacity of any member of the JLA to match or survive. If Thor and Surfer were limited to duking it out, then they would certainly lose against the combined power of the JLA heavy-hitters, but it will never come to that.
