Green Lantern: Stop!
Superman: You think you can stop me? With what? The most powerful weapon in the universe on your finger?
Green Lantern: Don’t make me–
Superman shows that he can easily take down Green Lantern Hal Jordan anytime he turns serious. Sure, Hal wasn’t really in a fighting mood and was trying to pacify Superman, but the most telling thing in this fight was that Superman can steal the Green Lantern ring from Hal’s finger anytime he wanted. I always figured the ring has an automatic protection for that, like requiring the person to have enormous will power same as the Green Lantern. But nope, Superman just yoinks it away with his super speed.

This is not Hal Jordan, it’s Kylo Ren.
Green Lantern has an endless number of ways to overcome Superman to include flat over powering him. While Superman’s strength is incalculable, the same is true for any Green Lanterns willpower which powers the ring. The Green Lantern any thing that possess it has more willpower than any being you know. So they are among the strongest beings, in pure strength period. The same can be said for speed. But the crazy notion you can just take a ring off a Green Lantern’s finger and that is it is wrong. The Green lanterns still control the ring mentally, so they could will it to become a piece of Kryptonite in Superman’s hand. The ring of all Green lanterns can control gravity making Superman infinite times his normal weight grounding him and making his arms even heavier where he could not defend himself. Every Green Lantern can control gravity, that is a default move even the artist Kyle Rayner can pull off making him more than a match for Superman in combat. Now if we step up to the one Green Lanterns who’s willpower is greater than the rings limitations, John Stewart, Superman would stand zero chance. Though, John being a Military man he knows not to point a loaded gun at a friend so he would be far more restrictive in a conflict with Superman meaning he would find another way like trapping him inside an energy bubble and whisking him away to a red planet galaxy to reduce his strength to de-escalate the matter…
