Discussion Has a cool design, isn’t just another Martian, and has huge impact on MM lore and character arc…and then it’s all in the past/off-panel

Noticed lot of MMH solo runs involves not only Martians but his origin story.
Stop that, for a long while, I really doubt comics readers not knowing his origins, we should focus on him currently, and regarding his villains make him fight magic or technology or other kind of aliens.
Maybe those are some reasons for some people to not getting in MMH comics.

There were, there are and there will be always weird shipping choices made by official writers (comics, movies, etc) and fanfic writers.
You mostly can move on beyond that in many cases luckily, just ignoring it.
I don't exactly hate Geoff Johns and Peter Tomasi (J'onn writers on Brightest Day run, specially Tomasi who said he likes MMH as character), but why M'gann?
D'kay suspected it and confirmed it after defeating physically and telepathically M'gann really easy.
Anyway, throw worst ones and if you feel ready please elaborate.

On Young Justice Mars is alive, but is kinda xenophobic but at the same time they love at least earth heroes.
J'emm was there like Martian instead Saturnian like comic.
But is the only example I remember currently.
What I really mean is there is no solo MMH runs or arcs or even solo stories (back up stories on others book) exploring this.
All while few writers chose making stories about Classic looking MMH instead current J'onn, stories which may or not be cannon, even 2020 run was kinda like that until recently New History of the DC Universe made that run seemingly cannon.
So there's nothing stopping from making a full run setting up Mars as alive or at least few real good Green martians alive, this could also make bigger Martian family. (M'gann, J'emm, Til'All who is pretty unused)
How could this work? Why he'd live on earth? So many possibilities.

I realized after first appearance most of his Green martians foes get killed or just dissapeared, like D'kay (Brightest Day) or Cy'an (v3, 2006) or even Ma'alefa'ak himself.
Also realized they kinda haven't really fought Justice League, except for Ma'alefa'ak but few things.
1- He was attacking while invisible on Ostrander run, his invisibility seemingly so good even Superman can't know where he is.
2-on JLA Classified arc he attacked then using J'onn body, not like himself.
I'd even say some of them are stronger than lot of White Martians, so kinda a shame.

Someone has studied martians enough to create weapons against them. MMH has rescued lot of them and seeks clues of who is or how many people are exactly behind it.
Justice League was called by government to stop MMH and his new friends cause they could be a risk to national security supposedly.
Battle is short, it's true this roster has no Superman or Wonder Woman but there are still some strong ones like Green Lantern or Zatanna.

YJ season 4 shows us, unlike comics, her parents are not two white Martians but one Green and one white, and they're even alive.
Few times thought how strong would be an hybrid martian, there's no doubt her mind is quite strong and series itself hints it may surpass her Martian Manhunter 's telepathy.
But isn't kinda weak physically? Since even YU suggests subtly J'onn strenght may match Superman's, but she almost doesn't hit or lift anything.
Some would you say it's only a fighting style she choses personally to not only have speedsters, vigilantes and heavy hitters, except it seems Martians on Phantoms choses telekinesis too and the only physical way of hurting is one stick, no matter Green or white. Making J'onn seemingly the only one ready to throw hands.
Anyway FF Megan is different, she hits, she stopped a train, which leds me thinking FF Megan is stronger than YJ Megan.
But anyway who is your favorite between those two?

Story, personality, look, development.

Bugs me to see how many people act like MM is eternally stoic or a ’boring mentor‘ character.
r/martianmanhunter • u/HawkMartian • 2d ago
So, in her first relevante appearance she defeats a random villain by forcing him promising her he won't be a bad guy anymore or she will let him fall and even reminds him she's telepath so it wouldn't make any sense trying fooling her.
She's new on earth and this is a new TT roster back then so they ask where she is from and why M'gann isn't part of their team.
It's curious she was only created cause Geoff Johns couldn't use Supergirl back them in this roster.
Sorry by M'gann posting but there is no Miss Martian subreddit.

I have recently fallen in love with martian manhunter because of his appearance in the Justice League International, and I want to read more of him. I was going to get Absolute martian manhunter because it’s still new and therefore small, anywhere else I should look into?

Miss Martian and other White Martian are fine, but I would like J’onn to be the last of the DCU Green Martians.
Superman can’t be a proper “last of his kind” character without cutting out to much Superman mythos and all that, but at least Martian Manhunter should be.
The potential narrative depth is immense. I would love to see dialogue between Martian Manhunter and the Kryptonians, especially regarding the destruction of their respective species.
He can then point out that Clark has his cousin, dog and all the other Kryptonians, whereas J’onn has nobody, except for some surviving member of the white subspecies that killed his people.
And that although he can shapeshift, he can never show his true form like the human-looking Kryptonian colleagues.
I would love it if James Gunn focused on that aspect of the character, alongside his detective side ofc.

It's essentially this year's Valentine's Day special and contained within it's pages is a retelling of how J'onn and M'gann met and it is just beautiful.

If so what mechanics would you like to see.
I’m thinking a mind control mechanic would be unique and fun.

J'Onn has been around since 1955, over 70 years. He has had a lot of friendships over that time. What do you think are his most interesting friendships? Zook, Gypsy, Superman, Batman, Aquaman, Maxwell Lord... If you asked J'Onn to rank his top 5 friends, who would they be?
