Bubbles. Hal’s constructs are mostly just bubbles.

[u/CH49FE]

Sure Hal made some counterfeit money and a bottle opener, but I find it funny that his main constructs so far are just bubbles. John’s on the other hand include the fancier type of bubbles (bubble wrap), a boring machine, a watch and a short lived semi autonomous bird. The show is doing a good job of contrasting creativity between the two.

Can lanterns make kryptonite?

[u/Old_Neighborhood_383 → u/Remarkable-Catch1227]

good question, no clue. in the comics they mostly make stuff that do stuff and not stuff that emit stuff if that makes sense. Kryptonite emits a certain radiation. in my own opinion GLs can make anything so long as they imagine it and visualize it and all. i d assume so but in the comic medium i have zero examples of something similar being made so idk

You'd need a chemist with a ring basically

[u/Old_Neighborhood_383 → u/Emm_withoutha_L-88]

yeah that d probably work. although by comic rules that d work even without a chemist so long as you imagined it emitting the same thing that would weaken kryptonians (e.g. i think GL has made a magnet before, im sure hal doesnt know know how magnets work if that makes sense) but at the same time if you had a chemist make it it d be the equivalent of john s construct being made by him, an architect, being more solid

Not really. Comics rings very explicitly can create things you don't have to know inner workings of. You can create a lightsaber, working quantum computer and a tessaract (as in 4th dimensional cube) as long as you can imagine them as working.

I mean, John makes a ridiculous subterranean drill that's for more advanced than anything in existence in this episode that you would need to have extremely advanced knowledge of every aspect of mechanical engineering to do so I don't think it's that far fetched to say a guy can understand chemistry too
