The Green Lantern has a very distinctive and beautiful outfit, characterized by the presence of a small, yet powerful ring, a refreshingly designed suit in different shades of green, a mask of the same color and of course - the lantern. Understandably, a decent number of DC fan artists have put a lot of effort in creating some outstanding cosplays.
The most popular individuals associated with Green Lantern Corps are Alan Scott, Guy Gardner, Hal Jordan, Kyle Renner, John Stewart, and Jessica Cruz so both male and female characters have been equipped with the Power Ring. Most of these heroes are male so here are 10 of the best genderbent female cosplays which every Green Lantern and DC fan will greatly appreciate.
10 SnuggieMouse
The gorgeous costume of SnuggieMouse features an element that is sometimes present and in other times absent when it comes down to the outfit of the Green Lantern and that is the cape. Examples of its presence in comic books include Parallax/Hal Jordan or the very first version of the character - Alan Scott. For one, the cloak makes the wearer look more heroic and secondly, it should help the Lantern with aerodynamics when she starts flying.
9 Krystle Starr
As stoic and prideful and as she is beautiful, Krystle Starr makes for an awesome female member of Green Lantern Corps. The decoration lines across the suit's abdominal area give her a very authoritative appearance as Starr strikes a pose that clearly states that the heroine can take on anything and everybody at any time. The heroes possessing the power of the Green Lantern have faced some of DC's most terrifying threats like Sinestro, Black Hand, and Atrocitus.
8 Asamiryuichi
Asamiryuichi's outfit is a tiny bit grittier, shinier, and more grounded. The most impressive detail of it is the Lantern itself - a vital part of the DC hero's costume.
The first possessor of the superhero's abilities was Alan Scott and he received them after the magic lantern appeared in front of him and promised him the coveted power. The color of her hair also makes her suitably reminiscent of Jessica Cruz.
7 Supershowgirlcosplay
Cosplayer Supershowgirlcosplayer also pays tribute to the most popular female version of Green Lantern, although it does so in a more obvious manner - the fan artist is wearing the lantern-shaped eye decoration. The superheroine that is of Mexican, Honduran, and American descent has extremely dark beginnings. She is tortured both by the Ring itself and the tragic death of her friends before receiving the supernatural abilities.
6 Kamiko_zero
Kamiko_zero's Green Lantern outfit also has a unique design. The costume's surface emits a delicious shine, which is very fitting for a science-fiction character.
Furthermore, there are various separate elements to this suit, the shoulder pads being one example and the ring being another. Just like the character itself, Kamiko_zero has used her imagination to craft something unique and singularly striking.
5 LadiLegasusCosplay
The result of LadiLegasusCosplay's hard work stands out with its slightly oversized mask and the glowing Power Ring. The source of the Green Lantern's powers allows them to create various objects - weapons and shields alike. Additionally, it can be used for all kinds of other transformations within the limits of imagination. The blinding green light is produced every single time the Power Ring is used.
4 Saramonicosplay
Saramonicosplay decides to transform into the DC Bombshells version of Jessica Cruz and she does so in quite the style. Covered in green and black from top to bottom, the cosplayer successfully pulls off the mixture of attractiveness and respect.
The many props - the badge, the whistle, the handcuffs, and well-placed symbols - on the buckle of the belt and at the center of the hat, brilliantly bring the character to life.
3 San Diego Comic-Con 2017
It is always a refreshing sight to see a futuristic superhero suit, like the one Green Lantern is in possession of, being reinvented as a period outfit. This steampunk variation, which this cosplayer brought to the 2017 San Diego Comic-Con is yet another exciting surprise. All kinds of awesome props are hanging off her belt, while her hat, coat, and boots are decorated in the most stylish way imaginable.
2 Maid of Might
Maid_of_might has the suit, expression and looks of a superhero and her version of Green Lantern is straight-up glorious, particularly with her free-flowing hair and that steely stare. It might not look like it at first glance but none of the Green Lanterns actually have enhanced superhero abilities because all their power comes from the ring so just like Maid_of_might demonstrates here, they need to make up for that with a strong and courageous spirit.
1 Surfingthevoiid
Another rendition of the Bombshell variation of Jessica Cruz that is properly equipped with the whistle, the lantern, the ring and the handcuffs belongs to Surfingthevoiid. The idea of the superhero dressing up as a casual police officer carries important symbolism. The duty of every Green Lantern is to protect the world against the forces of evil. At the end of the day, they are the universe's policemen.
