Why is green lantern the only founding member of the justice league without a sidekick?

He had this thing that was like a space star fish. It was called Itty.

No joke. No relation to Starro either.

hal and the other modern green lanterns are part of a big space cop organization tho, he may not have a traditional sidekick ala Robin, but he has a lot of ally heroes

ww and wonder girl haven't really been shown working together for a long time. hell, i think titans hunt was wonder girl's introduction to the new 52 universe, but even before Flashpoint donna spent most of her time with the titans in some form

Aqualad is the only one you can make that argument for and even that's a stretch. Consider reading more comics.

Because Hal is a space-cop.
He doesn't have powers due to birthright or an accident.
He earned it.

Some punk kid isn't going to be made a space-cop.

What he means is a kid with almost the same powers as the adult hero.
A mini-me.

There's nothing like that for GL

Sidekicks aren't just younger versions. Fucking DC can't do anything but that most of the time but yeah.

The Doctor's companions for example are just glorified sidekicks.

Some kind of ROTC mentorship setup honestly wouldn't be out of place, but they let kids into the lantern corps as seen with Arisia so maybe it's not necessary.

No.

John Stewart getting the ring wasn't an accident.

The accident made him be tagged. He was needed. He wasn't bit by a radioactive spider and felt compelled to help, he was given power on the condition he would.

John got his ring because the guardians hand picked him to be Hal's backup after Guy got hit by a bus

That time Hal slipped in the shower was just one instance of John getting tagged in as the backup, I wish you meme posters would stop spreading lies

You do realize there are about six green lanterns for earth right?
Each and every one of them has also been a member of the justice league. there's no point having a sidekick when you can simply be replaced by one of your counterparts.
