Which lantern can beat Superman?
He's powerful but not invincible, and there are ways to stop him. Hal Jordan, on the other hand, did not need any of these means to beat Superman. Instead, he uses the pure strength of the Green Lantern Corps, proving that a Green Lantern alone is powerful enough to defeat Superman.
The color yellow is Green Lantern's primary weakness, but he was able to use it to save the Justice League. In 1960's Brave and the Bold #30, the Justice League confronts the android Amazo for the first time.
