I have always wondered, why isn't there a Kamen Rider-esque Green Lantern?
I always thought Kamen Riders and Super Sentai-ers should be willpower-based. U know, whenever one of them stands up after being beaten and kicks ass, that should be 'cause their powers are will-derived.
As we all know if suits were built technologically, there's always a limit, no matter how "strong willed" you are, if it's broke, it's broke.
So i just thought this would be a cool explanation, and then why not apply it to the most will-powered-based-superhero?
So, why aren't there any Green Lanterns who just will themselves a belt and transforms and pretty much fight without constructs? like say Laira(recently deceased) or that rock guy, what'shisname, one of the Lost Lanterns.

Also applies for Riders like Godai and Shoichi. Plus, it's not all that uncommon for a technology-based belt to suddenly become unbroken after the hero has a surge of... heroism.
