John Stewart is a member of the Green Lantern Corps and the third Green Lantern of Earth, after Hal Jordan and Guy Gardner. Like Gardner, he foregoes a secret identity. He has also been a member of the Justice League of America.
During his fight with the Earth Green Lanterns, Parallax revealed that Kyle Rayner's "twisted desire" was to be the last Green Lantern again and thus "special". He is stopped from murdering Guy Gardner by the intervention of the surviving Lost Lanterns and the Ion entity.
Before Hal Jordan, there was Abin Sur, an alien from the planet Ungara, who patrolled the spaceways of Sector 2814 until crash-landing on Earth. With his dying breath, he granted his power ring to Hal Jordan, and charged him with accepting the role of Green Lantern of this space sector.
John Stewart, one of the characters known as Green Lantern, is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics and was the first African-American superhero to appear in DC Comics.

The Green Lantern Corps, a fictional organization appearing in comics published by DC Comics, consists of a membership of at least 7200 members, with two assigned per sector (originally 3600 members, one per sector).

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.

Unlike other superheroes, who knew exactly what they were doing when they turned evil, Hal Jordan (aka Green Lantern) wasn't entirely responsible for his transformation. He switched sides when the ancient entity Parallax, which focused on fear, took hold of him. As a result, Hal's light turned yellow.
