G Is For Green Lantern Kyle Rayner

Posted to Flickr on 19 March 2010.

Kyle Rayner was a young, struggling, gifted graphic artist who was given the opportunity to become the last member of the Green Lantern Corps during a dark period of the cosmic police forces’ history in which its entire roster was either lost or killed. He carried on the proud tradition of the Corps for several years until it was rebuilt.

This 4 1/2 inch figure was produced by Kenner as part of the Total Justice line in 1996.

Green Lantern

Green Lantern is the name given to numerous superheroes in comic books published by DC Comics. Alan Scott, the first Green Lantern, was created by Bill Finger and Martin Nodell and premiered in All-American Comics #16 in 1940. Each Green Lantern is armed with a power ring that projects solid-light constructs limited only by the wearer’s imagination and willpower. Except for Alan Scott, Green Lanterns are specially selected members of the Green Lantern Corps, an intergalactic police force. Notable Green Lanterns of Earth include Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, and Kyle Rayner. Throughout their history Green Lanterns have often been members of the various incarnations of the Justice Society and Justice League with fellow superheroes such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and others. The Green Lanterns have appeared in numerous TV series, including Green Lantern: The Animated Series (2011), and the film Green Lantern (2011).
