10 Worst Things The Green Lanterns Have Ever Done

3. Making A Pact With An Evil Spider Cult - Various

It likely comes as a surprise to precisely nobody that a faction called the 'Spider Guild' that live in a world called the Wombworld are, in fact, completely evil. In spite of them being transparently evil, the Green Lanterns make a pact with them, promising not to step foot on their territory in exchange for an armistice.

Naturally, asking the evil Spider-people to say on their side of the line works about as well as anyone with two brain cells could predict, and the cult of arachnids eventually attacks the Green Lanterns, who have the absolute nerve to be surprised at the fact that the evil aliens are being evil.

While the Green Lanterns do eventually deal with the Spider Guild, it's only after they literally have to, meaning the supposedly heroic space police have let god knows how many people die before they finally dealt with the problem.
