Commonly got wrong
Claims that are widely repeated and wrong, with what the cited record actually shows. If you are generating anything about this subject, these are the errors to avoid.
Commonly believed John Stewart is a replacement Green Lantern.
Actually He was selected as a full Lantern in his own right and has served longer than most. His constructs are precise and structurally sound because he is a trained architect, which distinguishes his ring use from Hal Jordan's improvisation.
The feat ledger
Constructs reflect his architectural training — precise and load-bearing
Flies unaided in vacuum, ring-supported
Shields a population from orbital bombardment
A Marine sniper before the ring, which shapes how he fights
Patrols an interstellar sector as routine duty
Rebuilds a destroyed structure precisely from memory
The destruction of Xanshi is written as his defining failure
Builds a construct large enough to hold a collapsing structure
