How Iron Man Would Defeat Every Justice League Member

4. Green Lantern

Hal Jordan Green Lantern
DC Comics

If Iron Man is best advised to don his Phoenix-Buster to fight Superman, that's even more the case should Shellhead square off with any one of the numerous Green Lanterns.

With their status as protectors of the universe, the Emerald Knights are some of the most powerful beings in DC Comics and beyond. The ring sported by a Green Lantern allows them to dream up anything they choose, whether that's a gun, a sword or even a comically oversized fist.

Of course, each and every GL has one major weakness. Despite having such limitless abilities to their name, the Lanterns can be tripped up by yellow.

For those comic book fans looking to throw shade in the direction of a Green Lantern over the years, the low hanging fruit has always been to poke at fun how these near-invincible characters can be taken down by a colour. Thus, Iron Man could pull in a bunch of yellow-painted drones or fire up a yellow-infused lights show if presented with the threat of Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner et al.
