If Marvel Characters Had Lantern Rings

[NicoSuave]

So, I found this clip on Youtube:

And I thought it would be fun to bring this here. I'm gonna set a maximum of 3 characters per ring, and my picks are:

Black: I'm trying my hardest to name someone other than Thanos, but I can't.
Red: Punisher (believes that vengeance equals justice)
Orange: Norman Osborn (so hungry for power, he was willing to turn his back on his own son to get it)
Yellow: Kingpin (cross this dude, and he'll **** you up)
Green: White Tiger (she must constantly control the power of the amulet)
Blue: Squirrel Girl (like John Cena, she's the underdog that consistently wins, and she represents the innocence of humanity)
Indigo: Ghost Rider (made a bad deal with the devil, but found a positive way to make it work)
Violet: Rogue (she craves affection, but can't have it without putting someone else's life at risk)
White: Deadpool (can't die, and at one point in the Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe storyline was basically Marvel's version of God); Groot (going off of the end of the movie, when the talking tree dies, a new one sprouts from the remains)

Well, I'd say Hulk would obviously be a Red Lantern. Cap would either be Blue or Green. Tony could possibly be Oarnge.

I need to ask, is the video link working? I'm the one who posted it, and I can't see it.

 

[Spider-Jay420]

Doesn't work for me.

Doesn't work for me.

I can never get these attachments to work on this forum.

 

[KevanG]

Just put in everything after the equal sign =.

 

[NicoSuave]

So, since I'm struggling with the attachment, the guy in the video made these picks:

Black: Thanos
Red: Hulk and Red Hulk
Orange: Dr. Doom
Yellow: Carnage
Green: Beast
Blue: Steve Rogers (he and Beast are both interchangeable)
Indigo: Silver Surfer
Violet: Couldn't think of anyone
White: Jean Grey

Black: Uncle Ben

That's all that needs to be said.

 

[BarryAllen]

Daredevil would be the main (as in the most prominent) Green Lantern.

 

[SlamAdams]

Like this idea. I made similar lists at Comic Vine

Green: Spider-Man, Carol Danvers, and Daredevil as Ion
Yellow: Trauma, Dr. Doom, and Nightmare as Parallax
Red: Hulk, Namor, and Wolverine as Butcher
Blue: Hope Summers, Hank Pym, and Captain America as Adara
Indigo: Bullseye, Legion, and Carnage as Proselyte
Violet: Elektra, Mary Jane, and Medusa as Predator
Orange: Taskmaster, Maximus the Mad, and Norman Osborne as Ophidian

Woah woah woah woah woah! Aside from the AXIS storyline, when the hell has Carnage ever shown compassion, and when was there ever a moment where we should feel compassion for him?
Indigo is an entity that allows for the channeling of the other colors, and their own emotional powers. The territory you'd give to multidimensional characters who have been around the emotional block, like Ghost Rider, Sue Storm, Magneto, Punisher, Venom, and the MCU's Kingpin...

But CARNAGE????? NO WAY!

Green - Spider-Man, Hawkeye

Blue - Captain America, Nick Fury

Thanos is Black for obvious reasons. I think giving him even more power like a Black ring would be kind of underwhelming for him since he's been God a few times by now.

Indigo - Sue Storm, Charles Xavier

Violet - Black Cat, She-Hulk

Red - Sabretooth, Hulk, Magneto on a bad day

Orange - Norman Osborn, Kingpin

Yellow - Carnage, any of the fear wannabe guys, like Scarecrow (not the DC one) or Mr. Fear

I think Doctor Doom could actually handle all of them and be the White Light.

Yellow - He's been using fear to secure his country for years and even the mention of his name is enough to make world leaders second guess themselves.

Indigo - He cares deeply about his people and homeland enough that he's willing to go to war over a single countryman being attacked outside Latveria.

Green - His willpower is second to none, he stared down the Purple Man who had his powers kicked up with nothing but willpower stopping him from doing whatever he was told which pretty much no one has ever done.

Orange - He's gone after power enough to destroy the universe to satisfy his wants and succeeded.

Blue - He inspires Hope because if he is on your side then you know you have almost a perfect victory before the battle even started.

Violet - He loves his homeland and his people. He has set up charities world wide for people who were hurt by his actions if they were from Latveria. If Latverians have left and they were injured or died he will set up a sizeable pension for the family so they wouldn't need for anything.

The problem with the Marvel characters is that they tend to overlap and IMO are more like people than the DCU. The DCU tends to stick to a single expression of the person no matter the reboot and don't vary too much from that.

Could you explain your logic in giving She-Hulk a violet ring?

The way I understand it, with the Indigo Tribe, they pretty much consist of the worst people you can think of. So when somebody suggested Carnage, that's actually a pretty good choice. As would....I don't know...pretty much any villain who has done some pretty heinous s**t. It's kinda their thing to take psychopaths, strip it all away, and turn them into super compassionate freaks.

Outside of Ray Palmer that one time, most of the tribe is full of monsters with no compassion who have to have compassion dumped into their empty souls by the rings.

Huh... I'm gonna re-read the Indigo Tribe description multiple times.

She's all about the luv. Look up who she's been with.

The Indigo Tribe were not characters that showed compassion. They were characters that need compassion. They were killers and sociopaths and the ring were like mood stabilizers.

Wasp would be a good candidate for the violet ring. Assuming we're allowing the non-rapey kind of Star Sapphires (i.e. the ones in comics Geoff Johns didn't write).

An argument could be made for Thor as a Blue Lantern. He inspires hope in the hearts of the gods because when he shows up, the battle is pretty much won. Although you could make a case for red, yellow, or green, too. He's enough of a rage-fueled behemoth on the battlefield that he's known for slipping into warrior madness occasionally. He's feared by all the enemies of Asgard. He's one of the most tenacious beings in the universe; even though he's a powerhouse himself, when he comes up against even more powerful enemies, he'll throw himself at them over and over again until they yield or he basically falls down dead.

Loki would of course take an orange ring, since he's defined by jealousy and greed for all the stuff he thinks is rightfully his, like the throne of Asgard.
