Many people seem to take the Golden Age/Earth-2 Green Lantern, Alan Scott, a little too lightly.
Well, we're here to disabuse you of any notions that he might be the more genteel of DC's emerald crime-fighters.
He's got a crook whom he needs information from...
Yow--shake that fist, Alan!!
Later in the same story, when hoodlums have the drop on him:
"Yeh--It's raining FISTS!"
You know who you don't mess with? The fists of Green Lantern!!
DC seriously needs a The Fists Of Alan Scott, Green Lantern series, stat!
From Comic Cavalcade #2 (1943)
I think Geoff Johns reasserted in his JSA run that Jay Garrick was the kind, fun, grandfatherly gentleman, and Alan was the stern, no-nonsense, old tough guy. I think your posts today show that he didn't invent that characterization.
