We all know that iconic Green Lantern oath, but it actually took DC Comics a few drafts to get it right. Today, we're exploring the confusing origin and history behind Hal Jordan's oath, which actually originated with his predecessor Alan Scott!

    So Scott, I found that oath serves as much more meaningful purpose to the corps members. the corps members themselves have gone on record saying that the words don't function as some sort of He-Man-like power-up. More of, it is a phrase that serves as a prayer or mantra with the intention of helping Corps members focus on the task at hand. Unlike the catalytic effect that saying "SHAZAM!" has for Captain Marvel, the Green Lantern oath is, in effect, a prayer or battle hymn, recited as a Green Lantern heads into battle, not dissimilar to the way a Catholic might gesture the Sign of the Cross before a trying or poignant moment.

    One of my favorite explanations for the oath - and with my senior memory, I can't recall where I read it - is that the time it takes Hal to say the oath is the exact time a ring needs to stay in the power battery to receive a full charge. By saying the oath, Hal insures that his ring is fully powered up for the next 24 hours.

    Here is my opening for "GREEN LANTERN: THE NEW FRONTIER": Some time in the 1940s, little Hal Jordan, in his "Hop" Harrigan pajamas, sits in a darkened room, his rapt face bathed in the light of the green tuning "eye" of a 1930s radio, listening to the latest chapter of his favorite radio show, "The Green Flame", as Martin Finger recites his oath, ending with: "...beware my power, the Green Flame's light!" A couple of scenes later, the ring explains to Hal that it is advisable to center his mind on the battery while recharging it, and suggests he remember or invent something suitable. Hal immediately presses the ring to the lantern and recites the standard oath, ending with, "...beware my power, Green lantern's light!" Well...just a thought.

    This would be for the Draybolt Corp (Shh trust me it's awesome) that would wield the sun lanterns. Not to be confused with yellow lanterns, sun/star lanterns are scholars that draw their power from the stellar energy of the universe. The oath is as follows: For all that will be, was, and is Let knowledge guide your way. With minds as one and all together We shall know this day. Through the passage of time and space We come to know what we see. That's the power of the star's light This ring will bring to me.

    I always like the version of the oath that I mistakenly thought was correct. It was essentially the same oath as the most well known one, with one small difference: The line "Green Lantern's Light" was replaced with "For I am light". To me, that line sounds more powerful and inspiring. He's not just using the light, he is the light. A guiding beacon for the world to follow, leading them away from evil and whatnot.

    I created three Corps: Gold, Silver, and Bronze for idealism, rationalism/clarity, and cynisim, respectively. Silver, I decided, would use their rings to dispell illusions, calm those who's emotions had overtaken them, and if nessecary destroy constructs of other Corps. The Silver Lantern oath goes like this: On foggy day, In stormy night I still will keep the truth in sight And to those too lost To tell wrong from right I shall bring clarity with Silver Lantern's Light

    I was hoping that you'd mention an oath I read of some time ago ( wish I could remember it better ) One member of the Lantern Corps patrolled a planet which was in permanent eclipse and had no concept of light and dark and of course lanterns. Their primary sense was hearing so rather than have a lantern they focused their energy through a bell. Their oath also reflected this and went as follows "In loudest din or hush profound, My ears catch Evil's slightest sound Let those who toll out Evil's knell Beware my power, The F-Sharp Bell" Pretty cool, eh ?

    My personal favourite comes from an Alan Moore story - probably titled something like "In Blackest Night" - where Katma Tui discovers a strange potential Green Lantern in the heart of a lightless expanse. With no concept of light or colour, he's unable to understand her initial explanation, but, after some creative translation, agrees to join the "F-Sharp Corps" with his own oath: In loudest din or hush profound My ears catch evils slightest sound Let those who toll out evil's knell Beware my power - the F-Sharp Bell!

    There is a reason for so many different Green Lantern oaths. Hal Jordan once explained that the words of the oath didn't really matter, they were just inspirational and crafted to be relevant to the individual. However, what actually matters is the oath is a timing method to ensure the Power Ring was in contact with the Power Battery long enough to receive a full 24-hour charge of Emerald energy. Apparently, the Power Ring doesn't receive a recharge at all unless it receives the full 24-hour recharge.

    I once wrote a semi-humorous piece called J*L*A, which, as the asterisks might indicate, was a mix between the League and the 4077th MASH from the TV series. Pierce was Superman, Houlihan Wonder Woman, Burns was Batman (who in the comics was a HUGE jerk at the time), and Winchester was Martian Manhunter (because of that awful JL TV Movie). The Flashes were Potter (Garrick), Blake (Barry) and Radar (Wally), while the Lanterns were Trapper (Hal) and BJ (Kyle). Given MASH's medical theme, I made the oath more like one a doctor would take : "By Lantern's Light and Guardians' charm, I first will try to do no harm. Not glare of day, nor still of night, shall keep dark evil from my sight. Let Those Who Worship (Standard ending)." Shortly after the JSA's 'permanent' exile after COIE, GL Salakk started reciting the Main Alan Scott version in the GL Corps book. One time, Katma Tui encountered a sightless race the Guardians wanted to recruit from, and the ring's oath had no meaning to them, so Katma used Musical Notes to create one. She noted that the new recruit had technically never heard of the GLC, since his language lacked all words needed for her ring's translator to function.
