Green Lantern
Alan Scott, the first Green Lantern, was motivated by a railroad engineer. That won't surprise comic book readers because the character had the same position. After observing a subway employee remove a blockage from the line with a green lantern, creator Martin Nodell had the idea. A magic green lamp that Scott used to make his ring saved him from a train disaster in All-American Comics #16 (July 1940).
After being eventually canceled, The Green Lantern made a comeback eight years later, revamped and once again based on a real life person. Gil Kane, a co-creator of Hal Jordan, utilized his neighbor, now-famous actor Paul Newman, as a model when creating the character. It's interesting to note that Newman, who reminded people of his test pilot lookalike, eventually developed a passion for motorsports and started driving race cars.
7-inch scale and up to 22 points of articulation allow the DC Multiverse John Stewart Modern Green Lantern 7-Inch Action Figure to be fully poseable and playable. The John Stewart Green Lantern action figure is based on how he appeared in Justice League #6. (2018). The Light Projection Machine Gun and base are included with the Green Lantern. The figurine comes with a collectible art card with John Stewart's Green Lantern artwork on the front and his character biography on the back.
