"Find me cards equivalent to: Lantern Spirit"

Here are some equivalent cards to Lantern Spirit (all are blue creatures with flying and an ability to return themselves to hand):
1. Aether Figment (blue, can return via unearth, not a perfect match but similar utility)
2. Cutthroat Il-Dal (not blue, so not included)
3. Drift of Phantasms (blue, flying, but no return ability)
4. Lantern Spirit (your searched card)

Closest functional blue cards:

  • Mistblade Shinobi (can return itself with ninjutsu, but only when unblocked)
  • Nebeling Scout (flying, but no return ability)
  • Phantom Ninja (unblockable, not returnable)

Verdict: Lantern Spirit is quite unique; no direct blue equivalents with flying and pay-mana-to-return-itself exist, but Lantern Spirit matches your criteria.

    Kicker

    Rules

  • If a card or token enters as a copy of a permanent, the new permanent isn't kicked, even if the original was.
  • If a spell's kicker cost was paid, the spell is "kicked."
  • If you copy a kicked spell on the stack, the copy is also kicked. If the copied spell is a permanent spell, the token the copy of that spell becomes when it enters is also kicked.
  • If you put a permanent with a kicker ability onto the battlefield without casting it, you can't kick it.
  • The kicker ability doesn't let you pay a kicker cost more than once.
  • To determine a spell's total cost, start with the mana cost (or an alternative cost if another card's effect allows you to pay one instead), add any cost increases (such as kicker), then apply any cost reductions. The spell's mana value remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.
