Green Lantern secondaries?

I'm Interested as to what characters people pick up for lanterns bad matchups, or what characters people main and use Lantern as their secondary.

For me picking a secondary had to help bad matchups and be enjoyable to play. I'm not a fan of just pick up Black Adam because he's broken because that can all change with balance patches. To pick a secondary I believe you have to look at the core of what makes your main loose a matchup i.e lantern loosing to Zoner's that can compete in footsie range (deadshot, supes, Harley)

I myself have picked up darkseid. Aside from the fact that I think he's got the the best stance in the game (eat this 400+ damage with my hands behind my back). His instant air omega beams if done right can frustrate black Adam and his ability to get around deadshot and his favourable trades against top Zoner's make him a good pick for me.
 
Im kind of in a character crisis for my secondary. I've got an ok Atrocitus to keep it in the Lantern Corps, but he seems so one dimensional and kind of boring. I've been wanting to really dive into GA but haven't had the time. I wish Sinestro was in this game, he'd fit in nicely imo.

Ive found Superman to be a really good secondary for me and I enjoy his playstyle. Im a simple man honestly.

MUs I tend to struggle im are Batman, Supergirl, and Deadshot. Those are MUs I feel more confortable as Superman.

Ive played Brainiac as my official pocket low tier since the second week of the game release and lucked out cuz he's getting buffs.

I like GL vs Flash: (spam him all day)

Swamp Thing: Zoning and better mid range punish tools compared to Supergirl, whom Swamp Thing tends to push right out of b12 punish range sometimes.

Atro: if they are stupid one dimensional tier whores and have no idea what footies is

Grodd:(making a read or reacting to his jump is awesome)

Bane: Spam him full screen and break that armor dare him to jump in debuff or whiff a move, use Lantern Might and power that zoning up

Robin: Spam him, bait the jump or wakeup flipsword spin, PUNISH!

Brian: make a read and grab him out of that divekick

That's about it. He's solid, but I don't think he's mainable just yet, he needs something.

I main Cyborg and use Lantern for some match ups like Darkseid and Deadshot.

Right now Cyborg and Lantern are the only characters I actually enjoy playing.

I think im going to try out superman like you said because those are problems for me as well.
 
I think having superman as secondary always makes me think why not main him? He does what GL does but better. I don't like superman as a character (not just in Injustice). I'm now leaning towards maining my pocket character Supergirl as they've fixed all of her problems (b123 safe was all I ever wanted) but I'll still bring out GL every now and then.
