Like I posted earlier, I couldn't think of who would murder a janitor. I mean, that's an unfortunate lot in some respects. Who would kill that guy? Got me thinking to motive, got me thinking foul play. Then I looked up any voice work that Englund had done and hit it shortly thereafter.
I know I cheated, but presumably Custom would be setting the thread loose now, so I'll pick it up:
My Heroclix match today was 500 points, unrestricted, theme-restricted: all figures must use some kind of ring. This includes Green Lanterns (and other color Corps), Legionnaires and their Flight Rings, the Flash family and their super-compressed costume rings. Name two other DC characters who used some kind of extraordinary ring, excluding those I've listed above.
--For bonus points, name four.

Booster Gold
Congo Bill/Congorilla
Lana Lang, Insect Queen
Batman (Kryptonite ring)

Even if I disqualify your Booster Gold answer for repeating "Legion Flight Ring" from my examples, you still nailed it.
Your question, Mouse.

When our story opens, the Question is investigating an impossible locked-room murder mystery involving a midget and a 6'6"-tall call girl into heavy bondage. Don't worry, I'll explain later. It's all vitally relevant.

Both the Spectre and Kulak possessed the "Ring of Life" for awhile. Not to mention the original Green Lantern, Alan Scott, who was never part of any Corps.

I forgot about Kulak. The Spectre I remember, tho I hadn't thought about the Ring.
It slipped my mind to think of Alan Scott. Like "Power Ring".
Tho, in Alan's case, wasn't he once made an "honourary" member of the corps?
And then of course, there was Johnny Cash. He had a ring of fire.
And it burned burned burned,
that ring of fire,
that ring of fire.
Continuing with the off-topic ring talk:
My team: Mon-El, Young Superman, Dawnstar, Triplicate Girl, Dream Girl, Cosmic Boy, Matter-Eater Lad, Congo Bill / Congorilla.
My partner's team: Amazo, KC Green Lantern, Shrinking Violet.
No one played a Batman, though I had some JLA teams that included Bruce (Hal, Barry, Bruce... but who else? G'Nort is JLI).

Johnny Cash wrote that song when he was in the shower, asked Roseanne to hand him the Preparation H, and she gave him the Ben-Gay instead.
Actually, June Carter, later June Carter-Cash, wrote that song about the way she felt for him. At the time, they were both married, but not to each other.
And why would his daughter Roseanne be in the shower with him?
You're confusing the Cash family with the Cyrus family.

Eh, I don't recall when it was. I don't think it was too long ago, maybe 1990's.

I'm assuming you mean the real Amazo and not his "son" that was recently revealed in the JLA Classified book, right? That was a weird one. Half robot and half human. In the womb, it was like that. Weird to think Amazo got lucky with some human.
I, myself, would have considered Amazo as an answer. Not a lantern corps member nor a Legion member. Still, he had a ring.

No, I was confusing the mother's and daughter's names.

Been longer than that since I read a GL comic.

Dear Schwartz in heaven, please tell me you're kidding.

That's alright, my boss once refered to his wife as his mom. We were eating lunch, and his wife and one of his daughters were away. And when telling me about how good it was, as he'd just bought a gift for his other daughter, he said, "I'm glad my Mom took the other kid with her". Then stopped eating and asked, "Did I just call my wife my mom?" And I just had to say, "Yes, would you like to talk to doctor Freud about this?". I spent 3 days listening him come up with new excuses as to why he called her "Mom". It was funny for the first two days, then it got annoying. He finally stopped with the excuses.

And yes, Virginia, there is an Kid Amazo...
Try reading this, I hunted it down on wikipedia.
Pretty freaky. I never did read the end of the storyline tho. The thing about his "lover" is truly disturbing, considering what I said in regards to your confusing the names of mom and daughter.
You discounted Legionaires, not Legion Flight Rings.
Which member of the JSA was revealed to wear a toupée?
No discounts for Legionnaires, those kids pay full price.
Johnny Thunder?

Green Lantern, Alan Scott. Hair today, gone tomorrow.
Correct! This always stuck with me, because it was an attempt to realistically age the JSA in Infinity Inc, and it got retconned away/ignored. At least Alex Ross made him bald in Kingdom Come.
