Wonder Woman = Abigail Adams Aquaman = Tom Paine Green Lantern = Jefferson I can buy (there's a joke in there somewhere about his weakness to "high yellow" but let's not go there) but I don't know if GL was actually part of the Superfriends Zan and Jayna = Sam and John Adams? I await eagerly the parallels for Black Vulcan, Samurai, and Apache Chief... So let’s see, we’ve got:
