Disclaimer: I never read the Green Lantern series comics...
Facts (?)~
1) IIRC, the Lanterns cannot effect / are powerless against Yellow.
2) Superman is powered by the light of the Yellow Sun.
3) Superman is vulnerable to Magic.
Question~
1) Can the Green Lantern(s) affect Superman?
2) Are the Lanterns considered "Magic"?
3) Has this ever come up in the Comics?
Yes, super man gets his power from the Earth's yellow sun.
Yes, super man is vulnerable to Magic.
Yes, the Green Lantern *any of the Latern Core* can effect Super Man.
(The ring gives the wearer the ability to spend his WILL to influence things around him: create a wall of force, a bridge, a buble to catch or hold people in, a later around the body which allows them to fly and travel through space....it has too many ways to be used to name here.)
NO, the Lantern Rings are not magic, they are apart of a Cosmic power source watched over by a race of beings *can't remember* those who give out the Lantern Rings, forming the Green Lantern Core.
Hale Jordan-most powerful Green Lantern, became Paralax *Cosmic Being* also, at one time, held almost every Lanter Ring. (Hale is prob the only one who could match Super Man.) He was a Vietnam Vet, he has insain personal will....hence why his ring is so powerful.
The way to take out Superman With a Lantern Ring: hold in in a cube, or sphere which is so tight that it blocks out light...keep him there untill his power runs out and he passes out. *however, Superman is like a battery, once in the light again, he will repower.*
How SuperMan could beat Hale: the ring is powered by will, will is based on thought, SuperMan, has, at times, been able to move faster than the speed of thought....so, he could take off Hale's Ring, or do w/e before Hale could act (example; SuperMan Red Sun) GREAT BOOK: three part, you should read it.
Game On
