9 Marvel Characters Who Could Wield Each Of DC's Lantern Rings (And Why)

2. Dracula - Death (Black Lantern Ring)

Marvel Comics

Most undead characters in fiction are mindless, brain-dead morons who would be completely unsuitable wielders of a ring with the intricate powers of a lantern ring. Marvel's Dracula, however, is not one of those morons.

The Prince of Darkness would relish the opportunity to gain the powers associated with a Black Lantern ring since, in Marvel, he's not all that powerful at his base level. The Count is a mediocre sorcerer with old magics (the ability to turn in to a bat or mist, the ability to hypnotise and a reliance on spell books to cast his more powerful spells), slightly superhuman physical statistics and good hand to hand skills being his main powers and abilities.

Giving him a Black Lantern ring would augment his physical statistics and make him very, very hard to kill, as the rings have virtually unlimited regenerative abilities and are near impossible to remove. It would make him a legitimate threat to the likes of Doctor Strange (whom, despite comics history, Marvel's Dracula has no right to challenge) rather than someone whom Spider-Man and Blade can take out with relative ease.
