DC Revolt: Martian Manhunter

Description

NEED TO KNOW: In DC Revolt, the Martians are not wiped out, in fact, they thrive as a society. They are split up into three different types: White( which retain the physical abilities aka shapeshifting, strength, flight, martian vision), Green( which retain all of the psychic abilities such as Telepathy, Teleknesis, Precognition, and Telemetery), and Yellow (the merging of a White and Green Martian which can exhibit traits of both). The Martians can transfer powers through various ceremonies such as unions and funerals.

After their first try at a universal guardian corps using the Yellow power battery, the Guardians chose to make their secondary force strictly non-human. In this, they commissioned the Green Martian Nation to create the Manhunter robots. They complied and were born, the Manhunter robots. The robots had no AI. The Green Martians could "possess" the robots and act as an agent of the Guardians. J'onn J'onzz was a multi decorated exorted member of the Manhunters. His deduction and investigative skills were second to none.

Then war broke out on Mars. The White Martians came against the Green Nation out of jealousy. A plot arose to disgrace the Green Nation's top Manhunter, J'onn J'onzz. They provided proof to the Guardians that J'onn destroyed a ship with thousands of refugee Yellow Martians aboard. The Guardians deactivated all of the Manhunter units.

J'onn was actually on Earth when the Manhunters were deactivated. He sat locked inside the metal robot inside of a warehouse until the warehouse was raided. The robot was found by Detective John Jones, who, when he touched it, psychically transferred the Martian to his own body.

Suddenly, one of the arrested criminals broke free and shot the detective. J'onzz took over and tackled the criminal (a white Martian in disguise). In the ensuing struggle, the criminal was killed and J'onn took his power to shapechange.

Now, J'onn has assumed the identity of John Jones, hunting down the white Martians on Earth and looking for a way home.

My Martian Manhunter is VERY different from the DC original. I took away a lot of his offensive powers and made him a psychic for all intents and purposes. He has some strength and invulnerability due to his Martian heritage. He is nowhere near Superman levels.

You made Martian Manhunter an actual Man-hunter, you achieved a revelation that DC didn't even realize.
