Does It Fit?

Going off topic, but Style Time, I just noticed your sig. Is that the late Andy Hug?

If it is, my hats off to you for honoring a great martial artist such as Hug.

a lot of talk about giving other ppl the gl ring got me thinking out of these ppl who be better at having the gl ring and who'd be worst.

Wonder Woman

Gladiator

Wolverine

Cyclops

Thing

Juggernaut

Spiderman

Elektra

Storm

Mine's won't fit...oh wait i mean Juggernaut...

People you gotta remember that the ring doesn't just require immense willpower it ALSO requires fearlessness. Literally. You have to be completely fearless.

Which may take Storm off the list due to her claustrophobia

Kyle admitted to being afraid a number of times IIRC 😕

I think it's less a matter of being afraid and more of a matter of facing that fear and overcoming it. Or at least ignoring it.

It was about total fearlessness but now it's more about realizing your fear and facing it for what it is. That's why Kyle should surpass all other Lanterns someday or at least would have before they made Hal all perfect again.

You really hate rebirth don't you? 😂

Though the explanation for the yellow weakness was wonderful the story took a dump on Hal's run as The Spectre, The Final Night, and a fundamental part of what made Kyle so unique among the other Lanterns. Also why I'm glad Kyle will separate himself from the Lanterns and take up the Ion title again.

Re: Does It Fit?

Wonder Woman - Is OP anyway, what does she need the ring for?

Gladiator - His confidence fluctuates too rapidly, he'd probably be the worst candidate here.

Wolverine - Has one of the greatest heroic willpowers in the universe, he might be second only to Captain America. His constructs would lack imagination, but the raw power behind them would be devastating.

Cyclops - Cyclops has a pretty good head for tactics, I can see him making some inventive constructs and constantly finding new uses for the ring. His willpower isn't the greatest, but it's not bad. He'd be at the very least a competent GL, and perhaps a great one.

Thing - Thing's fighting spirit is right up there to Wolverine's. Similarly to Logan, he'd probably suffer from a chronic lack of imagination. I see him constructing "brass knuckles" of GL energy and wading into battle like he usually does. But again, his will could make him a great GL.

Juggernaut - Not an especially strong will, and certainly not much for imagination. Let's face it, his invulnerability and strength have never lended themselves to creativity, and after years of smashing things working just fine, why would he vary it? Juggernaut would be a poor GL.

Spiderman - His willpower is considerable, although it usually comes from him being in an underdog situation (as well as his strong sense of responsibility.) Spidey's mentally tough only when he's on the ropes, in essence, so I think he'd be a ho-hum GL.

Elektra - She certainly has some good self-control, considering how much work that figure must take. 💃 Not terribly creative though, a sub-par GL IMO.

Storm - Her will comes from a strong sense of pride and identity.... I suppose she could be fairly imaginitive (she's not a BAD leader... unless you're a Morlock), but I don't see her being an especially good GL.

Thanks. It's nice to know someone knows the guy in my signature. It is indeed Andy Hug. I figured I'd dedicate my first sig to him because he was such an inspiration to me and probably all who saw him fight. I believe he embodied all of the late Mas Oyama's kyokushinkai principles. I will work on a better one because this one is quite blurry and doesn't do him justice.

I hate that such a great warrior had to leave us at such a young age. I believe he would have taken Oyama's style to a new level.

Spidey. I'm not being a fanboy, but there's multiple issues where they say something like "A lesser man, even with amazing Spider Powers, would have fallen by this point. Only through his magnificent and unbreakable will does Parker continue to fight." and similar stuff like that.

And he's smart enough to have fun with it.

Spidey, Thing, WW, and Wolverine have all done this before to some degree.

My personal choice would be Spidey.

Wolverine might get it, but he'd definetly butt heads with Guy Gardner.

WW wouldn't get it. Why, you ask? She hasn't gotten it yet, OR been offered as far as we know. Probably because of the slightly gender-biased nature of the Guardians.

Storm, same reason. Plus you put her in a box and she's done.

Gladiator? Probably same reason Superman, although I dunno about Gladiators homeworld status, though.

Juggernaut and Elektra aren't exactly the kind of person you'd want as a Lantern.

Cyclops, Thing, and Spidey are probably the best bets for Lantern..ship.

How many do you suppose are female?

I to think Spiderman, and also Thing, would be best with the ring. They have good hearts and strong wills and would do whatever they can to save the day.

I'm not so sure who would be worse.

wolverine has a far far far far stronger will then spidermans

they wouldn't give someone like Supes or WW or MM a GL ring cause then they'd be too powerful. They were going to give Supes one in an alternate universe but refrained after adding in the Super-powers.

prove it.... or at the very least give some reason for your statement

I would say that superman would be if he were on the list. He didn't sleep with WW after staying a tent with her for 1,000 years in Asgard for war. That itself tops it for me.

Gladiator could handle it, but probably wouldn't want it. ;P

But yeah, the best from the list would be Thing.

wolverine beserker rage for one is surpressed purly by his will. his will is mention all the time to be so unbelievable.x-men x-tinction agenda mentions that wolveriens body was beaten and he should not of been able to even be standing even but only throw will alone was he able too. when wolverine lost his powers they mentioned that his will to live and to fight was the only thing that kept him alife for so many months and would allwoe dhim to battle sinister even though he was dieng. his will power is mentioned far far more then spidermans is. thing is the only one on the list that probly has equal or almost equal to will power. also when master mind tryed to take overs mind wolverine would not allow it even thou every single other x-men was taken over so very easiliy wolverines will was to strong. when he finaly took over woverine mind after wolverine battle his whole team for hours on end was wolverien in enoguh of a weaken state to take over his mind. also later wolverine breaks free of the mind control from sheer will power to rescue the other trabbed x-men.

I would think that WW would have a will at least as good as Wolvie. She holds back alot too. And its not just willpower its imagination which I would say WW is above wolvie or thing. but overall as a GL I would say WW or Spidey.
