Who in Marvel can use Hal's ring?

What characters in the Marvel universe have enough willpower to put on Hal Jordan's GL ring and use it effectively without being completely overwhelmed and destroyed by it?

This is the ring Hal himself forged in Rebirth-

-For the purposes of this thread the ring's "unauthorized user" safeguards are turned off.

Willpower is one of those things that's really hard to quantify so it's super hard to say for sure. As far as the guys with the most willpower in Marvel(and thus the best chances at succeeding) IMO would be Doom, Cap, and Thanos, plus Mags and Namor with a lower chance of success.

Just want to mention that even Kyle Rayner barely managed to control Hal's ring/willpower initially(and that was AFTER Hal had literally willed his ring over to him.) Additionally, the ring actually started asserting Hal's will into Kyle's own consciousness:

So whoever the Marvel character is, they'd need to have willpower no less than equal to Kyle's just to have a shot at controlling Hal's ring to any extent...

Frank Castle

Steve Rogers

theres a difference between having enough willpower to use a standard gl ring, and having enough willpower to use HALS ring. even guys like batman can barely even interface with a normal gl ring for example. hals ring is a completely different beast

kyle rayner is one of the most experienced and powerful lanterns in dc (probably only second to hal himself). this is a guy who has wielded the power of ION on more then one occasion, the power of every lantern color, AND the f&cking power of the white lantern. but even kyle could barely get a hold on hals ring. its THAT powerful

so no, i dont see someone like steve rogers using hals ring at all. i think marvels best shot would be someone like thanos.

too easy for Victor Von Doom

Thanos, easily.

I could see Doom or Thanos being able to control it thanks to all their stints with highend power over the years.

Anyone else have a shot?

Don't forget, Green Arrow (who also has buckets of willpower) had the WRONG sort of willpower, being too cynical to use it.

So that's another factor to consider.

And like was mentioned- that is just "a" GL ring. The ring Hal forged is SO much more.

I think there's a misconception that any random character with decent intelligence and/or willpower can pick up a GL ring and start using it successfully right off the bat... Not the case at all.

And as has been mentioned already: Hal's ring is on a completely different level from your 'standard' GL ring. The fact that Kyle was struggling immensely just to contain it is extremely telling.

Maybe Doom:

Carol Danvers. Well, at least given enough time.

Below skyfathers?

Definite's: Thanos, Doom, Captain America

Possibles: Strange

Up in the air: Ironman, Wolverine

No one..not for long

Hal has the highest willpower there is. This was pretty clear when Kyle a fellow green lantern could barely manage to use the ring

I don’t think anyone can manage to use that ring for long.

I'd also add that as of "Darkseid War", it was stated that even Batman could "BARELY interface with a power ring":

...And that's Batman, ffs... A guy who obviously has immense willpower, has extensively studied Lantern rings, and had actually used Lantern rings a few times by that point -- yet successfully operating a GL ring was still beyond him.

Point being: it takes more than *just* general willpower to harness the power of a GL ring and use it successfully. While there are some characters in Marvel that I don't mind giving the benefit of the doubt to, there are others that I don't think would have a chance in hell at using a normal GL ring... Nevermind Hal's ring.

I've seen multiple people mention Cap, for example. Not a chance, imo.
