I think the land animals is a more recent development. Even so, with 75% of the earth covered in water, it's nice to know the baddies would have had to stick to land.
Angel: Is that what you think you are--a hero? Spike: Saved the world didn't I? Angel: Once. Talk to me after you've done it a couple more times.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What if you were dressed as a banana while drinking lemonade?
He'd probably beat the shit out of you. For very good reason.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The Wonder Twins were lame.
Ok, who was more annoying: Bat-mite or Gleek?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
The Wonder Twins were lame.

See above. Why not have an extra-strong telepath with control of land and sea animals on your team?
Because he's an insufferable asshat? And because his classic costume has a boat neck? Not to mention his hydration issues. (Though I admit that the other day, I found myself wondering where I could find the good Aquaman/J'onn J'onzz crack.)
Also, the current Earth Green Lantern's ring has no such weakness.
Yeah, yeah. Details, details...
Ah. You've just reminded me of a couple years I spent hearing near-constant rants about Kevin Dooley from my Green Lantern-obsessed former roomie. Pray for the man should we ever meet at a comic convention, because I OWE HIM PAIN!!!
Can I get popcorn and watch?
He triggers it.
I love Anne's spicy brains.

Yet Cyclops has regular work.
And because his classic costume has a boat neck?
Not to mention his hydration issues.
New and improved -- mitigated by humidity too.
Yeah, yeah. Details, details...
But it's not like he can't just pick up a non-yellow building and drop it on the banana guy.
Honestly, if someone gave me a green lantern ring I'd take that too. I'd be able to fly, understand any language, survive in hostile environments, and make things with my mind.
It's one way to pass a Sunday afternoon.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Hee! I'm loving the superhero smackdown and am quite pleased that my Angelverse--->Frayverse theory isn't laughable.

Something just occured to me: Why does Gleek wear a mask? Why does he need to have a secret identity? What, is he a mild-mannered organ grinder monkey by day....

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I love Anne's theory.
And it makes Wes' interpretation of Shanshu - he gets to live until he dies - true and poignant. Hm, in my head this makes sense, but in actual words, nsm.
