Description
A comic website I frequently visit has a forum where artists show off their talents by partaking in friendly competitions with a variety of criteria. This is an entry for one such contest.The premise is pretty simple, pick a character and assign them a ring from the Lantern emotional color spectrum. I knew I wanted to use Spider-man because he is my favorite comic book superhero. I did struggle picking which Lantern best fit Spidey's personality. Since there is no "GUILT" lantern color, I ended up going with Green Willpower. I also considered Hope, Compassion, and Love. All of which are parts of Spidey's character, but I think his will to do good and honor the memory of his lost uncle drives him more than anything else.
What do you think? Should I have picked a different Lantern hue for the Web-Head? Or do you agree that Green is the best choice? If nothing else it let me make those sweet glowing webs so I'm calling this one a win, even though the contest isn't over.

Nope! This is a more natural cross-connection than most fans might think. The "Tales of the GL Corps" DC used to print, as back-up features in the 1980's, included a little-known predecessor to Abin Sur. A 1950's school teacher named Donna Parker whose husband had died in the Korean War!
Making Peter her grand-nephew would be a natural tie-in.

That's interesting. Thanks for sharing that.

Green is the best, cause if I have read enough Spider Man comics, he has the will to fight for truth and justice no matter what the outcome will or is to become.

Willpower most certainly fits well, although I'm surprised you were able to make Spidey even more of a badass now!

What did you think of the GL movie?

I liked it... except the part where the antagonist looks like a giant space spider thing

Heh, yeah. They really didn't do Paralax justice. But other than that I didn't have much of a problem with it like most people did.
It felt like a movie about 7 years out of it's time. Like if that GL movie had been around in a pre-Iron Man world, it wouldn't have been as hated by so many. But in a world where Captain America and Thor and Iron Man have had massively successful films, it's a whole different animal.

I dont compare marvel movies... they're all good to me (well, the ones from 2000+ are) and i agree, they didnt do Paralax justice... thought he would be more menacing then a space-tarantula
