Green Lantern and Batman’s Rivalry, Out of all the rivalry that the Superheroes share among themselves, Batman and Green Lantern’s shared friction is no doubt is the most interesting. Both of them are members of the Justice League but this hasn’t stopped their rivalry. Although, Emerald Warrior and the Dark Knight have together defended the DCU. But this hasn’t stopped them from entering into a fight against each other.
The rivalry that these two shares has grown extensively and has crossed the limits of just being a personality conflict. The personality dispute that exists between Hal Jordan and Bruce Wayne has expanded between Green Lantern Corps members and Caped Crusador. It all originated from a punch that would be repeated several times between them and that for several coming decades.
