If Superman was the green lantern!

If the man of steel held one of the greatest energies of the universe what whould be the result? What about his costume design?I mean his "S" and his natural colors would have to fit somewhere.

... He would be a badass.

Didn't we see this idea during that time the Key took over the watch tower?

Superman would be even more amazing

that would be fantastic

Right after the Infinite Crisis, he took a ring from Hal and did be a GL for a bit.

I wouldn't read him.

Their flagship character is overpowered as it is.

No, his jobber aura is over powered....He, himself, doesn't have that much power to me.

Oh right.

Super Strength
Super Senses
Super Speed
Flight
Heat Vision
Ice Breath
X ray vision
Telescopic Vision

Off the top of my head, and he doesnt have that much power? Laughable, any one of those powers would make for a reasonably powerful character. Several characters only have one of them, whereas he has shedloads.

I don't mind though, as long as it's well written I dont really care to be honest. Except of course if he had a GL ring that'd take the piss, Hal Jordan's one of the most powerful dudes on the planet and he's human. Imagine Superman with one, that'd be a pisstake.

xray vision and telescopic vision would be under the 'super senses' heading...

and the list of characters who'd kick the living shit out of him goes on and on... so he can't be as overpowered as some people seem to believe...

At least according to people that don't read much Superman.

Just because he gets his arse handed to him everytime DC needs him to look better (ie him coming back and owning them or w.e) doesn't mean he's overpowered. He always manages to defeat oponnents that the entire JLA don't manage to. I just find it silly, he is VERY overpowered IMO.

lol, i'd be the first person to defend superman against the characters that are more powerful than he is, but as much as i like the guy (and i do), even i'll admit the guy isn't invincible...

the jla as a team, are, well, shit... most of the enemies they fight as a group could be better dealt with by individual members of the team...

and superman has been given hard fights (some that he barely won, so i hardly count that as owning) plenty of times even in the last couple of years...

He isn't invincible, but he's not beaten very often and Like Kyle says in the crossover with the Silver Surfer when Terrax shows up. I hope that's Superman.

Like I said...that's his jobber aura, not his powerset. With people who can control energy, matter, or flippin' reality, I don't think Superman is all that powerful. His powerset is generic (these days).
