History
John Stewart is one of Earth's Green Lanterns, the leader of the Green Lantern Corps and a member of its Honor Guard. He is noted for being an excellent sniper as well as a skilled architect. Born in Detroit, Michigan, most of John's life was marked by poverty and clashes with police. His mother was a community organizer, who tried to make things better, and inspired John to try and make the world a better place. Once he finished high school, John felt it was time to leave home and joined the U.S. Marine Corps. His mother didn't like it, fearing John would be contributing to the American military industrial complex, but John felt it was the only way to pay his way to college and that protest without action is not enough. read more
