Here’s a plot summary for the show: “The story spans decades and galaxies, beginning on Earth in 1941 with the very first Green Lantern, secretly gay FBI agent Alan Scott, and 1984, with cocky alpha male Gardner (Wittrock) and half-alien Bree Jarta. They’ll be joined by a multitude of other Lanterns — from comic book favorites to never-before-seen heroes.”

Jeremy‘s character Alan was the Earth’s first Green Lantern, and was created by Martin Nodell and made his comic book debut in 1940.

In the comics, he was a train engineer by trade, and got his powers after coming upon a mystical green lantern crafted from a mysterious meteorite. He later joined the Justice Society of America, and in universe-hopping adventures would sometimes team with members of the Green Lantern Corps, including Hal Jordan.
