DC Gold/Green Lantern

Green Lantern is a comic series created as part of GazzaB9's DC Gold project.
== Characters ==
=== Main ===
* Alan Scott/Green Lantern - an engineer and owner of the Apex Broadcasting Company in Capitol City. After a train crash that resulted in the death of his friend James Henton, Alan was visited by an avatar of the cosmic force The Green, which spared his life and transformed him into it's human conduit. Alan is a level-headed, serious, and rational man with the ability to create light constructs of almost anything, limited only by his imagination. However, due to how the power of The Green functions, Alan's powers don't work on anything related to plantlife, notably wood.
=== Supporting ===
* Charles "Doiby" Dickles - a quite goofy and silly but capable cab driver who is childhood friends with Alan and is aware of him being Green Lantern as he decides to help his best bud out in situations that the powers of the Green can't exactly solve, being quite skilled at hand-to-hand combat and can be somewhat aggressive at times as well.
* Irene Miller - Alan's secretary and one of his helpers. She primarily covers for him at work and also does research on criminals, cases, and missions for him. She is loyal, jokey, and intelligent, able to think on her feet and come up with ideas outside of the box that more often than not work out in her favor. However, she sometimes gets into trouble while trying to help.
* Streak - Alan's pet dog. He is characterized as being playful and very attached to Alan with a surprisingly good understanding of morality, able to tell when someone is a villain.
* Molly Mayne/Harlequin - an energetic and acrobatic woman who often accompanies Green Lantern out on his adventures. She initially wanted to become a supervillain, but quit after realizing she didn't have it in her to commit actual crimes, becoming more of a nuisance. Even as a hero though, she continues to bother and annoy people because she finds it funny. Her primary weapons are a mandolin and goggles that let her project illusions.
=== Antagonists ===
* Vandal Savage - a genius master planner who has been alive for several thousand years, beginning his life as a caveman. After discovering a mysterious meteorite, his intelligence was greatly increased and he was given the ability of immortality, which is so great that he will regenerate from almost anything. Due to his immortality, he believes that he is superior to other people and thinks that it's his destiny to become the ruler of the world. He is egocentric and has an over dramatic way of speaking.
* Cyrus Gold/Solomon Grundy - a gangster who was betrayed and gunned down by his men, dumped in Slaughter Swamp. Years later, he was resurrected as the conduit of The Black, becoming a large, powerful, living dead creature which was set on destroying the conduits of the other forces of the universe. Grundy cannot think very clearly and his mind is often consumed by anger, becoming frustrated easily. He speaks in the third person as "Grundy" and more often than not recites the famous Solomon Grundy poem.
* Vladimir Sokov/Red Lantern - a Russian immigrant who moved to America to start a new life as he was instantly met with mass xenophobia and hatred towards him. This hatred towards those who hate him had attracted the cosmic force known as the Red, who after having its own hatred of humanity for slaughtering countless animals, decides to make Sokov their own conduit. Due to this, he becomes a violent and rage filled vigilante out to show the Red's vengeance on humanity, often clashing against Green Lantern although Vladimir seems to be somewhat attracted to Green Lantern but refuses to admit it.
* Steven Sharpe III/The Gambler - a cocky young mercenary for hire who quite loves gambling and leaving things up in the air, having designed most of his weaponry around luck and chance as he is quite amused by Green Lantern, seeing him as more of someone he can test his luck on instead of someone ruining his schemes. He also has a code of honor, refusing to cheat and hating it when either hero or villain plays unfairly.
* Lawrence Crock/Sportsmaster - a former star athlete who was discovered to be cheating and promptly shot the man who exposed him, but was caught soon after. Years later, he returned with a series of sports themed weapons and became a super-criminal. Though posing an obvious threat, Crock has a very tongue-in-cheek attitude when it comes to his criminal career, his dialogue often incorporating sports puns and lingo.
* Dr. Joar Mahkent/Icicle - a scientist who was stationed in the Antarctic by the US government. However, he was promptly abandoned there by his collegues after it was discovered he had been performing horrific human experimentation. Isolated for years, he managed to make it back to America and began a career as a criminal mad scientist, outfitted with his go-to weapon, his Cold Ray Gun which he invented during his years away from home.
* Rose Canton/Thorn - an employee at the Capitol City branch of S.T.A.R. Labs who has been routinely picked on and put down by the people in her life, resulting in her becoming shy and submissive. However, as a child she had a mental break that resulted in her developing a more assertive and manic superpowered alter ego named Thorn, a split personality that quickly becomes a plant controlling serial killer and lethal vigilante who swears to hunt down and kill anyone that abuses others in any way.
* Guy Pompton/Evil Star - a movie star whose career was ruined after a cheating scandal. By chance, he came across a crashed alien spaceship and stole a device on it which had been phsycically calling to him, that being the Star-Band, granting him several abilities. Initially wanting to be a superhero and redeem his public imagine, Pompton's mind was corroded by the Star-Band, transforming him into a demented and dangerous supervillain.
* Tobias Manning/Terra-Man - a cowboy from the late 19th Century who was abducted by alien scientists who trapped him in cryogenic ice and kept him frozen for years until one day, the ship he was in crash lands on Earth, causing him to wake up. He steals the weaponry that the aliens used and decided to commit a string of robberies using his new high tech, clashing against Green Lantern.
* Dr. Grace Balin/Orca - a mad scientist who believes that one day the world is going to sink, and that humanity needs to be prepared for it as she injects herself with DNA from an orca whale as she mutates into a gigantic orca-like creature yet retains all of her intellect, wanting to turn the entire world into sea creatures, becoming a menace to the Green Lantern.
* Ferenc Aldebaran - a criminal stage magician from the year 5702 who after realizing that he can never stop that time's protectors, traveled back in time to the 1930s to try and use his tech on those he claims to be less intelligent neanderthals, clashing against Green Lantern on multiple occasions while being absolutely perplexed on how he could lose to him.
* Abel Tarrant/Tattooed Man - a poetic and sadistic villain who is covered in strange markings resembling tattoos which he is able to reshape into anything he wants. He was a sailor before his criminal career and discovered a sunken ship where he first gained his tattoos, which later turned out to be a series of nano machines that engraved themselves into his skin, funded and created by government scientists whose ship sank.
* Otto Von Furth/Plasmus - a German scientist who fled from Germany after WWI as he studies plasma, developing a way to try to use some form of plasma as an enhanced healing factor. Unfortunately, his funding got pulled and he can only use the unstable serum on himself, mutating into a horrifying monster made out of pure plasma with only one goal, to get more energy.
