James Rhodes (Earth-8920)

"I'm a soldier, and a Green Lantern. As such, I'm following my superiors' orders - and trying to work out the best strategy possible. That's what a cop does. Regardless of their personal feelings. And that's why I promise to give you... my loyalty"

- - Green Lantern to Captain America
