Hal Jordan was the first human chosen by the Green Lantern Corps, and his willpower-fueled suit remains one of the most recognizable designs in DC Comics. This guide walks through how to draw Hal Jordan as Green Lantern in his classic comic book look with the ring, mask, and full uniform.
Putting the Ring Bearer on Paper
The tutorial contains 12 step-by-step images, ending with the final colored result. The full body drawing covers his entire figure from head to boots, with comic-style muscle definition and fabric folds throughout the suit. There’s already a Green Lantern in flight tutorial on the site, but this one shows him standing on the ground in his standard uniform.
Hal Jordan’s Suit Design
- Green mask with pointed edges
- Green shoulders and torso with lantern emblem
- Dark gray/black suit covering arms and legs
- Green power ring on right hand
- Green high boots
- Short brown hair with side part
The green-and-black color split makes drawing Hal Jordan as Green Lantern a good exercise in handling two-tone superhero suits. For more DC characters, Batman as the Dark Knight has a similar dark suit with defined muscles, and Hawkgirl brings a completely different silhouette to practice.
Step Color Breakdown
Each image uses three colors so you can tell what’s new at a glance:
- Red Color: lines added in the current step.
- Black Color: lines completed earlier.
- Gray Color: base sketch for structure.
