I suspect that he might offer Lex a ring, on about the same basis as he himself obtained a lantern - Lex swears a binding (Gaia and Ophidian enforced) oath not to use the ring for evil (or something to that effect), and, in exchange, gets a ring.

Very few people think of themselves as 'evil'.
Assuming Paul succeeds in getting the Central Power Battery, he can add a third level to that and use the threat of having the connection shut off as another means of control.

True, but I think "supervillainy" counts as "something to that effect," and is much less ambiguous.

Well yeah but that's like a summary. They'd be more specific.

Didn't Grayven do that too in the starcrossed episode?

There was a character in A Planet for the President who did something very similar.Oh my gosh you watch the show?
I think Grayven just used boom tubes the whole time, but if I'm wrong I'll go back and change that as well.
He needs a better grasp on how other people can use the ring without going crazy before he starts handing any out. "Crazy benevolent Luthor" would if anything be worse than "sane not-benevolent Luthor".
Also, Lex Luthor is exactly the sort of guy who would effortlessly and shamelessly find the loopholes in such an oath. Both Grayven and OL did, remember.
He could always pull a Sinestro and upload a copy of himself to the ring for active monitoring.
I'm sorry, Lex. I'm afraid I can't do that.

He was transitioning around inside the Thanagarian ship in I think chapter 22.
But doesn't Nth metal also throw off boom tube generation though?

Although it should be added that Constantine was the one picking the demons they summoned, which changes that scene a bit.
Thanks

@Mr Zoat here are the epubs I made up to now.
The Season 1 epub is completed and up to date as of 09/04/2016
The Season 2 epub will be redone once the transition of the story only thread from SB->SV is finished
epub for Season 1 (Episodes 01-26) [MediaFire][MediaFire Alt. Formatting][GoogleDrive] by @Twilight666 (corrections added up to 09/04/2016)
epub for Season 2 (Episodes 27-40) [MediaFire][MediaFire Alt. Formatting][GoogleDrive] by @Twilight666 (chapters up to 09/04/2016, corrections ->26/12/2015)
Note: The Alt versions have background color deep blue and default text color white. Also the transparent text has a darker color as both the background and the text color, and it is also in black borders.
Also both versions have XenForo like threadmarks between episodes while the Alt Versions has similar threadmarks on the individual chapters
Also @Mr Zoat I think adding threadmarks for the episodes in the story only thread would make searching (and browsing) through it easier. Have you thought about it?

He wasn't carrying Nth metal with him at the time, and he only went within line of sight.
More than a certain amount does, yes. He could get to the bridge because it was relatively exposed.

Thank you, updated.
The Story Only link on each episode takes you to that episode. Changing the links for each story post would a) be a pain in the arse and b) make it difficult for people to read the comments associated with that part of the story.

About this Luthor business: I don't think offering him an Orange Ring is wise at all, whatever oaths nonwithstanding. He'll go crazy in a very short time. He's dangerous enough sane and without a ring. Who's to say he wouldn't kickstart ON with it?

Didn't he grab a number of Nth metal weapons to fix Hawkgirl with?
Doesn't that count if he has Nth metal on him though?

No, no what I mean is add 25 threadmarks in the story only thread, one at the start of each episode

Same. There are 6 billion other people on Earth alone who might make better Lanterns, and then there's every other inhabited planet to choose from besides. Why make a big deal of one guy, when it's probably best to just leave him to do what he's already doing? He could also be hired as a civilian consultant for the OLC if they really need him or something.
And now I want a scene of deities and spiritual beings gossiping about the mortal world's latest trouble-maker.
Everyone in the supernatural community seems to know John Constantine, so OL's frequent association with such a well-known and infamous person might cause word of his reputation and deeds to spread faster than it normally would've.
Plus, I imagine that supernatural creatures use knowledge to barter promises and favors since they don't have "fiat currency" like humans and each species/group has different materialistic priorities if they have any at all in the first place.
Nabiki-Eris: (shouting like a carnival barker) "Information dossiers for sale! Find out about the latest happenings in the mortal world!"
Melinoe: "Do you have anything on the Lantern of Orange? Not that I care or anything..."
Nabiki-Eris: "But of course! And it can be your's for just 30 gossamers or two goats!"
(hands over two goats)
Melinoe: (reading packed)
"What?!?! That magician's daughter tricked him into living with her in Shadowcrest Manor?!?! Oh I am soooo paying the trollop a visit!!!"Nabiki-Eris:
"Mwa-ha-ha! All according to plan!"[(*Nabiki is a greedy mercenary and info-broker from "Ranma1/2"*)]
When Cottus starting forming hands, for a second I thought OL was going to make a comparison to the Helping Hands from Jim Henson's "Labyrinth" starring David Bowie.
Is OL old enough to have seen the theatrical release of "Labyrinth"? Or did he only see it on TV or Betamax/VHS? I heard the movie was better received in Britain than in the US, and has a stronger following there.

I believe it only stops the boom tube from forming, and only if one of the apertures is completely encased in sufficiently thick Nth metal in all directions. I doubt it necessarily prevents the transportation of man-portable Nth metal artifacts through an already-open tube, and to my recollection he never used Ring-based transitioning with the metal on him in that scene though I may be wrong.

Certainly, but he wasn't carrying them with him when he attacked the ship. It was a spur of the moment decision, remember?
