Superman vs Hal Jordan

Hal Jordan the Green Lantern (Green Lantern - First Flight)

vs

The Man of Steel (Superman Returns)

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

In the DC Universe, Lex Luthor has setup Superman to take the fall for a murdered Green Lantern. Hal Jordan has been dispatched by the Green Lantern Corp to bring Superman to Justice.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Now I know Superman is quite popular, and also has a significant speed advantage. So I'm going to have to give Hal some help.

He has the full power of the Lantern Core in these fights.

Scenario I - Pure Hand to Hand punch on. No super speed.

Scenario II - Anything goes. Sinestro teams up with Hal Jordan.

I know most people probably haven't seen the film, but comic Superhero fans should definitely watch it. Its better than Superman: Doomsday or the Justice League film IMO.

Heres the trailer...

YouTube video

Haven't seen the new film yet. I hear it's good. What kind of constructs does Hal create?

Hard to say...he makes a few things. Nothing too fancy though. He made a large construction drill machine thing, and rocket launcher. He'd probably just stick to straight blasts and shields vs SM though.

Is it worth watching?

As for the thread I don't see why Hal can't win assuming his will power is great enough for his shields not to break on the impact of Kal's punches.

IMO, its worth watching. Its not excellent by any means, but the fact you know who GL is, you would probably find it entertaining. Rated 7.4 on imdb if that means anything...

Even though I think IMDB is total shit I suppose that's pretty good for a DCAU flick. Can't wait on the Batman/Superman: Public Enemies.

Wouldn't Superman destroy Hal in a h2h fight? I'm assuming he's unable to shield himself or use the ring at all to hit him in that scenario.

He can use the ring for the personal shield that is always up and also strength amping.

Did you read the rest of my post? Also it wouldn't be the first time Clark's strength was greater than a GL's willpower.

When Hal Jordan absorbed all of the energy of the Lantern Core, he was strong enough to pull two moons (looked like Saturn's, but not sure...) against its orbit, one with each hand...

Thats definitely in league with Superman's lifting feats (however, one should note, Supes was lifting a kryptonite embedded mass, as well as having it in him). A good matchup I say...

Hmmm 😉

Edit: Just noticed Batman is actually laughing. Thats crazy.

Delete..

Batman should facepalm there. It would've been a lot more awesome. Or simply smirk.

If we're using First Flight Hal vs Routh Superman, then Routh Superman.

If we're talking the comic versions, then things change dramatically.

^ Which scenario are you referring to Raoul?

And yea, its Routh...

both, tbh 😂

Routh's Superman destroys First Flight GL since Jordan is just a rookie Lantern.

FYI, the GL movie is decent enough to add to your library if you are a fan, I have to admit. However, I was left wanting more.
