Answer: Hal Jordan

Test pilot Hal Jordan was the 1st Green Lantern in the comics I enjoyed. To this day, I remember what he had to say to recharge his power ring as follows: 'In the darkest day, or the blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evil's might, beware my power, Green Lantern's light.'

Answer: Mon El

Mon El came from a world similar to Krypton and has all the same powers as Superboy. When visiting Earth while suffering amnesia, he tried to convince Superboy he was from Krypton. Superboy, trying to prove him a fake, exposed him to green Kryptonite, which was actually lead painted green and found out that his memory returned and the lead was deadly to him.

He was put into the Phantom Zone by Superboy to save him. Braniac 5 found a cure years later and freed Mon El. Ultra Boy has most of Superboy's powers if not all, but he can only use one power at a time.

Supergirl, Kara El, is the daughter of Zor El, brother of Jor El Superman's father. When Krypton exploded, the city of Argo remained intact.

Zor El and the rest of the population were killed.
