What? Mauve? Puce? Taupe? Vermillion?
Or should we extend the spectrum?

Infra-red?
Ultra-violet?
X-ray?

Damn right there should be more Lantern Corps. Right up to every human
being in the galaxy being a member of at least one of those
organzations.

Tartan. An army of tartan-kilted Lanterns would scare off any space
baddies.

Sapphire has never had to charge her gem. Does the Sinestro Corp have
to charge up? Seems that the GL Corp is the only one that uses a
lantern.

I think they've all been shown to have lanterns, or, at least, each
corps has a Central Battery. Not clear if they use it in the same way,
though.

Well, maybe a certain 'Color Corps' (led by Rainbow Brite) will appear to
sort things out.

Or a Rainbow (Bat-)Hulk will smash them all.

Or would you prefer a visit from Sailor Mxyzptlk. 9_9

I'll leave now. ^_^!

In the war between the GLC and the Sinestro Corps it's shown the necessity
to move up a battery on the battle field. I guess that's just in case some
member was in the need to charge the ring.

It's also shown that the yellow ring can loose it's carghe (absorbed by a
manhunter).

It's also showed that the blue lantern has no infinite energy when the Saint
Walker recharge a dying sun.

It's als showed that the indigo tribe use a lot of energy to severe the
connection with the black rings.

So I could picture that a recharge lantern would be needed for them all.

Ultraviolet and infrared. The ring does stuff but you can't see it
doing it.

The Lava Lamp Lanterns. Your color range swirls around and disorients
your enemies. Too bad your Power Battery needs time to warm up. And
don't put it on a stove!

Hey, isn't that the power the Invisible Woman has?

I was thinking of things like giant hammers hitting people, only you
