  • "In brightest day, in blackest night, No evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evil's might, Beware my power...Green Lantern's light!" These days, you’ll find a Lantern Corps representing every emotion on the spectrum but back in 1940, Martin Nodell and Bill Finger introduced All-American Comics readers to one of the most enduring superheroes of all time. Railroad engineer Alan Scott comes into the possession of a magical lantern after a railway crash and fashions a ring from it to fight crime in Capital City. Debuting in issue #16, the Green Lantern has transformed over the decades from a mystical enigma to an intergalactic peacekeeper that draws strength from his indomitable willpower. To say that fans were chagrined by 2011’s live-action Green Lantern film would be an understatement; Ryan Reynolds has continuously trolled the movie in the years since and Zack Snyder completely skipped over the character itself, even in the Snyder Cut! So we thought we’d reacquaint you with the reason why the Lantern Corps exists and introduce you to some of the universe-level threats they’ve thwarted across their storied publication history. Here are the 10 Most Powerful Green Lantern Villains.

    Kyle Rayner has a huge possession from Parallax in Sinestro Corps War. It seems that Guy Garnder and John Stewart can also overcome the control of Parallax. IF Sinestro lets Parallax out again, I can see it going for Jessica Cruz fully controlling her.
    Atrocitus isn't the only red lantern who can make constructs. Whoever dipped into the blood pond on Ysmalt could regain their awareness and control over the rage.
    Neckron was defeated BECAUSE William Hand was brought back to life by a white ring at the end of Blackest Night. Without the physical anchor, Neckron was weaken enough for the White Entity to finally defeat Neckron.

      in theory Parallax probably could be any shape but the most common look is of some sort of bug which goes back to the origin story for the entities that was explained at the end of Blackest Night. For Parallax, it was a bug that felt fear for the first time which allowed it to tap into the yellow light and become Parallax.
