Originally posted by CosmicCometThanks, The reason I included Kilowog here as the resident Green Lantern of this thread is because he has vast superhuman strength of his own with the ring supplement, And can problem hang longer with these vastly powerful type than any of the human GL's.
Great fight.Superman's speed should be too much for anyone on team 2 save for his own allies Billy and Orion.
I think either of the two will be able to stalemate with Superman long enough for the rest of team 1 to be neutralized.

^ Anybody ever post scans definitively proving Kilowog's independent super-strength? Geoff Johns' haters may scoff, but Hal Jordan H2H wrestled with Kilowog with rings off, didn't he?
He did, yes.
I could be mistaken, but I think Kilo displayed some super strength in both that Superman/Batman issue where he and Hal sqaure off against Superman and Bats for a moment or two and again during his fight with Arkillo in SCW. I can't say for certain, though.

^ But he had his ring on both times, didn't he?Taking for granted that Kilowog is super strong, I just don't see normal Hal Jordan making Colossus' or Thing's head snap back with a kick to the chin like Hal did against Kilowog.
More than likely, yes.
I don't really see Kilowog as being a "100 tonner" or anything like that myself without the ring as I can't recall or cite specific examples of Kilo's strength feats sans ring. A couple of instances here or there, but nothing concrete for me to say without a shadow of doubt that Kilo approaches x level of strength.

Personally I've never understood why Green Lanterns couldn't amp their stats to Class 100+ levels using their rings. Instead of making a construct to lift/push/destroy something big/some enemy just use that power like tactile telekinesis or to amp a punch.
I'd imagine it's because GLs tend to be very visual kind of characters, especially in a comic book format, so it gives artists the chance to really draw some unique and wild things via constructs.

However many times the constructs aren't all that imaginative.
I'm just saying for someone like Guy Gardner it would make sense. Like that could be how they differentiate him, by making him use his ring to become a brawler.
