    Default Are Green Lantern rings "one size fits all"?

    Just a random thought.

    Do Green Lantern rings bend and adapt to the chosen user? I assume Kilowog's ring is a lot bigger than Hal's.

    What about alien species with no fingers? Does it just go around their entire body?

    Their size and shape change to conform to the bearer of the ring.

    They adjust to fit the ringbearer. Mogo's was like an equator of sorts, I believe. (He was a living planet.)

    They are like the One Ring in Lord of the Rings - they expand and contract to fit the user.

    In the recent Godhead crossover, Mogo's ring was just hanging out on a tree branch if I recall correctly! Orion just flew by and snatched it up...

    The original Mogo "equator" wasn't his ring but more his "uniform/logo" it was the biosphere's plant-life, gathered to make the symbol.
    How he intephased with the ring or what form it took was was not shown, it may very well have been a simple ring just hanging off a plant, or one buried within him.

    That's just PIS to get Mogo out of the Story, Mogo's ring was in his core at one point, even in GLTAS, Mogo's ring went underground when he was chosen.

    During a recent GL story arc, Mogo's non retcon ring got exposed for everyone to see deep inside his core, btw it was HUGE

    Well, no, the ring on the tree thing was established sometime before Godhead. I initially thought Mogo's ring was still the huge interior thing, and Orion was going to tear that out. It was cool.

    Ohh must have been after he was recreated because it was the ring (and brain) that John shot.

    Yes, exactly this awesome shot. Note that given the size of Mogo (roughly like Earth) his ring is, scaled to human proportions, the size of a sand grain (if even that)

    Resizing itself to fit its wearer should be a piece of cake for a GL power ring.

    I do wonder, however, if a GL power ring can create an edible piece of cake.

    Yes, if you happen to be a being that subsists on energy, than a GL ring can feeds you looooots of cake.

    Well, Power Ring once created popcorn with his, tasted sorta bland but it was nutritive.

    And Guy Gardner created "Death-to-your-enemies popcorn" in DC Universe comic so he could sit tight and watch Brainiac probes slaughter the Sinestro Corps from the comfort of a green beach chair while being behind a force-field.
