Green Lantern (Alan Scott)

Introduction of the original Green Lantern

Alan Scott, engineer and adventurer, becomes the Green Lantern of Earth-2 when he discovers an ancient Chinese lantern and makes a ring from its metal. The powers of this ring are powerful and vast, its only weakness is an ineffectiveness against wood and related vegetable matter, a drawback when battling Solomon Grundy of Earth-2 who is composed of plant material. The Green Lantern takes on a sidekick, Dolby Dickles, who accompanies him on many adventures.

The Green Lantern is a powerful member of the Justice Society of America of Earth-2 and served a term as its chairman. (first appearance, All-American Comics No. 16, Jul 1940: "Introducing the Green Lantern!")
