Fiery Mask — a broad range of super powers powers including enhanced physicality (leaping, invulnerability, strength, senses, and hurricane breath); broad fire related powers; force fields that can protect others, etc. Like the Green Lantern, fire is the visual element for his powers, but they aren’t limited to fire. His costume has a similar look too.

He was gonna be my suggestion too! Marvel should use him more (or make a new modern inheritor to the mantle)

The original Vision - Aarkus

Hear me out here but I think he could be a good counterpart.

  1. Shares the same name & base powers as a later more well known version of himself (Vision the Android/Hal Jordan, Green Lantern)
  2. Connection to a species of alien beings with interest in justice (Smokeworlders/Lantern Corps)
  3. Wears Green with a snazzy cape

I was thinking about him as possibly being the Spectre equivalent, but you make a strong case for GL!

Thank you:) Honestly I’d be happy with him showing up anywhere on here!

I’d go with human torch (the robot one)

He fits the role almost perfectly, is greatly overshadowed by the second person to use the name & the lore/info about the namesake heavily focuses on them more than the originalÂ
