20 Mind-Blowing Facts You Never Knew About Green Lantern

13. Batman Painted Himself Yellow To Beat Him Up

Green Lantern's main weakness for a long time was the colour yellow. He and every other member of the Corps were literally powerless against anything that colour, and while Geoff Johns found a clever way to explain that years later (it was all to do with the fearsome Parallax apparently), Frank Miller's All Star Batman and Robin took this trait and used it to humiliate the character. In a room which was pained yellow - meaning he can't create any constructs - Hal is nearly killed by these two disturbed versions of the Batman and his sidekick as they cover themselves in yellow paint and proceed to beat the crap out of him.
