Talk:Green Lantern

message: With all due respect to Mr.Nodell, I own a copy of Steranko's HISTORY OF THE COMICS Vol. One and in it, Finger claimed he was the one who had the idea of using "Alan Ladd" as a play off the name Aladdin. Finger commented on the actor of the same name on how they missed a publcity opportunity! Since Finger is the same writer who came up with the "Bruce Wayne" identity for Bob Kane's Batman, I tend to believe he did likewise for Nodell's Green Lantern.MARK VENTURE (talk) 04:24, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

text: You can have your opinion on it, but Bill Finger is officially credited with co-creating Alan Scott's Green Lantern. Please check 'Batman: The Brave and the Bold S3 E11'. In the credits you can clearly see he has official credit from WB/DC. It says, "Green Lantern/Alan Scott created by Martin Nodell and Bill Finger". If you can't access the episode, here's a link to a picture of the credit: https://imgur.com/a/xhY886t Kaii-El (talk) 06:37, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: Bill Finger and Alan Scott

message: Someone might want to clean up the last para in this section, updating the sequence of this "trilogy", publication dates etc., I'm not enough of a scholar to be reliable, I just happened to notice the availability of Blackest Night after seeing the reference here and looking it up on Amazon.Jeff (talk) 21:50, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Later developments 

message: Shouldn't we make an article about the War of the Green Lanterns storyline. I mean, it may not be as important as Blackest Night or Brightest Day, but is still pretty important for the Green Lantern series. So, what do you say? Leader Vladimir (talk) 23:27, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Powers and Abilities  

message: The lead speaks of the DC Universe (mentioned again in the body of the article), but it does not link to anything nor does it explain what the "DC Universe" is. So: what is it? AugustinMa (talk) 08:30, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

message: Since he knows I dabble in Wikipedia, I received a snail-mail letter from John Hertz asking me to clean up the reference to Alfred Bester and the Green Lantern Oath citing his research including discussions with LASFS members who back the change.

message: Hello everybody!  I just learned about a relatively new term in academic political science, punditry, and journalism : "Green Lanternism", which refers to the tendency of the public to demand that political leaders be omnipotent, and to attribute every disaster or problem, including inevitable ones like aging or earthquakes, to political leaders' alleged weakness or malice, as if the leaders' capabilities and powers, like Green Lantern's, were limited only by the leaders' will power.  I think this term is notable and appropriate for GL's Wikipedia page, but some people might disagree with me (it does happen, occasionally), so I'm opening this section on the TALK page for those who do, to vent, or for anyone to discuss, question, or debate, any aspect of this.
