Sadly, the shock of transporting an alien from Mars to Earth seemingly killed Dr. He used his shape-shifting ability to assume the alias of John Jones, a hard-boiled detective working out of Middletown, Colorado.
With his new colleagues, he became a founding member of the Justice League of America. He learned that that Dr. Erdel had not died years before, and that the story of his arrival on Earth as he remembered it was a fabrication. The appearance most people recognize as the Martian Manhunter was based upon Dr. He also learned that he was not only displaced from Mars due to distance, but also time, as the plague that had wiped out his planet, including his wife and child, had actually occurred thousands of years prior.
The virus reacted to telepathic energy and was transmitted from one Martian to another whenever they used their psionic powers. Because of this virus, almost the entire green Martian race was wiped out. His time on Mars was now a million years ago, making him one of the most ancient beings on Earth. When still a young man, he and several other young Martians were recruited for a government experiment, or so they thought. In the 21 st century he became a Super Hero, adopting the name Martian Manhunter.
It was revealed that although he had briefly joined the Justice League, he was not a founding member, and had left after a very brief period with the team due to their lack of trust in him. When the United States government decided to form their own League, the Martian Manhunter was asked to become a part of the team. In fact, Martian Manhunter may have some explaining to do when the action dies down, having stayed out of the METAL apocalypse until all hope seems lost. To grasp just how little hope remains in the story of METAL and the many evil Nightmare Batmen working to plunge existence into darkness, fans will need to read it themselves.
But where a tie-in comic saw Hawkman's own Rebirth take shape , the return of Martian Manhunter comes without fanfare in the main story itself. On the planet Thanagar Prime, of all places, where Green Lantern and Mister Terrific find themselves the prisoners of a cosmic tyrant who's taken over the planet with help from Starro. Until one Thanagarian guard breaks protocol to speak to the prisoners, revealing himself to his old friend Hal Jordan.
Martian Manhunter doesn't get a chance to explain his absence from the mainstream DC Universe since making a brief appearance at the death of the New 52 Superman in DC Universe: Rebirth 1.
She also revealed to J'onn the visions he had were true: Martians were originally merged with Humans in another race, a race connected to a being called Perpetua , the mother of a Multiverse which came before the one they live in. Most importantly though, she revealed J'onn that in his past, while still a child, he was kidnapped from Hypertime by Lionel Luthor , who made experiments on him in an effort to recreate the Martian-Human hybrid that existed in the past.
After telling this to J'onn, the Keep died and the constructs of the Absorbascon with her. Shayera was repented of her actions, and asked for forgiveness: the Universe was in fact afraid that if the Justice League went on with the research connected to the Totality, all reality may suffer a tremendous blow. With new, terrible truths in his heart, J'onn came back to Earth together with the rest of the League, who came to Thanagar thanks to the powers of Starman.
After discovering he was kidnapped by Lionel Luthor in the past, J'onn decided to contact Lex Luthor alone, meeting him on Mars , to ask him explanations about why his father wanted J'onn's genetic material. Truthfully, the Martian Manhunter remembered that Lex, a kid at the time just like J'onn, helped the little Martian escape under the false name of Albie, because he was afraid to make J'onn discover he was Lionel's son.
J'onn and Lex were friends when they were children, both victims of the crazy machinations of Lionel. J'onn tried to reach out to Lex, and make him side with Justice, but failed. Mxyzptlk gave them access to that dimension. In this paradise, he was married with Kendra , and they had a son together, named Shayne. It is Shayne himself who revealed them that all this was not the future, but a completely separated Multiverse created by the World Forger , who was tricking them by taking on the aspect of an older Superman, while the real one was imprisoned.
Together with the other members of the League, he was able to convince the World Forger to not overwrite the current Multiverse with the one he created, where anyone who did not side with Justice was either killed or imprisoned, but to fight alongside them in the real Multiverse.
He started to hunt him down, and found instead Lionel Luthor in Sacramento. He soon discovered that the Lionel he was fighting with was not real, but an Amazo construct of Professor Ivo , who was working for Lex, trying to recreate the hybrid species Perpetua made out of Martians and Humans , which Luthor and Ivo called Apex Predators.
As Ivo tried to take genetic material from J'onn, Hawkgirl found him and helped him escape, also realizing Ivo was not the real one, but a machine as well.
Getting out of the place, J'onn got contacted on a private telepathic channel by Lex, who told him to meet him, alone, in a certain place. J'onn reached Lex's secret base, finding him transformed.
Without realizing it, J'onn fell into Lex's trap: Luthor needed a Martian to complete his transformation in the Apex Predator, after he was exposed to all the seven negative forces of the Universe. In front of an impotent Kendra, J'onn's entire molecular structure was absorbed by Lex, leaving apparently no trace of the Martian Manhunter's consciousness.
Thanks to the sacrifice of Shayne , who substituted himself to him, J'onn was resurrected, and was also filled with the power of the Justice Totality, a powerful part of the original Totality which gathered the seven positive forces of the Universe.
Thanks to these powers, J'onn tried to contact the whole Multiverse with his mind, to revert the will of the Multiverse to side with Doom [29] , but was unable to convince enough people. Against the Mindhunter! She would have succeeded if not for the Quintessence , a group of all-powerful beings who found a way to make the Justice League able to counter Perpetua: they had to access the Anti-Crisis energy by entering an odyssey made of all their biggest adventures.
Coming back to Earth 0 , they discovered that the Batman who Laughs dethroned Lex as Perpetua's right hand, and that the deranged Batman was starting to transform their planet into what would become the Metalverse. After failing to stop the Batman who Laughs, J'onn was one of the heroes who got imprisoned inside New Apokolips. After Wonder Woman and Batman freed the heroes from their imprisonment [32] , J'onn decided to take on the mission of destroying the Throne of Perpetua alone, facing both the Omega Knight and the Mindhunter , as he still was cursed by his guilt in letting the Totality fall to Earth in the first place.
As the Batman who Laughs, now transformed into the Darkest Knight, killed Perpetua and launched the final assault against the Multiverse, J'onn fought alongside the others against the forces of the Last While there, he was part of the team studying the undergoing mutations of their Multiverse, consequence of the deal Wonder Woman made with the Hands.
