J'onn is also cold towards individuals that he dislikes for good reasons; like Sam Lane, due to the latter's arrogant, rude, ungrateful, selfish and immoral traits.

## Powers and Abilities

* **Martian Physiology**: Like all Martians, J'onn possesses several incredible powers. Overall, J'onn is one of the most powerful beings in the entire universe.
	+ **Accelerated healing factor:** J'onn's martian physiology has moderate self-healing properties. This caused any wound inflicted on him to glow red and then vanish in minutes
		- **Extended longevity:** J'onn's life span is considerably longer than a normal human and likewise ages much slower. Despite being over 300 years old, his health, performance, and natural appearance has remained unchanged.
	+ **Density-shifting/Intangibility:** As a Green Martian, J'onn is able to move through solid matter (such as walls and doors) or to increase his density to become near-invulnerable. He is able to use this offensively, allowing him to phase through people to cause internal damage or even pull organs out of the body,
	+ **Invulnerability:** J'onn's body is far denser than a human's, but not quite as durable as that of a Kryptonian, like Superman, while he is able to make himself more dense.
	+ **Shapeshifting:** J'onn is able to change his form at will, even on a cellular level, completely altering his physical appearance, allowing him to transform or mimic other people.
	+ **Super strength:** J'onn possesses incredible superhuman strength, although not as strong as a fully-powered Kryptonian; such as Superman at the peak of his strength, though he can surpass a Kryptonian's strength using all of his powers (strength and telekinesis combined).
	+ **Super speed:** J'onn is capable of moving at speeds that are similar to that of most Kryptonians.
	+ **Telepathy:** J'onn is able to read the minds of other people (except for Kryptonians) communicate with others mentally and projects his thoughts into others, as well as hear others people's conversation psychically.
		- **Mental detection:** J'onn can feel and detect the mind of others, as well as their intentions, emotions and mental states.
		- **Psychic translation:** As a Green Martian, J'onn can psychically translate other languages.
	+ **Flight:** J'onn can use the telekinesis to move himself, and simulate flight.
	+ **Opti-chroma kinesis:** When in his natural form (as a Green Martian) J'onn's eye color is a rather bright shade of red. Because of this, his eyes glow this sanguine color whenever he has a burst of adrenaline in a different form.
	+ **Acid resistance**: J'onn has a bit of resistance to acid due to his Martian physiology. However, he can still be badly hurt.

#### Abilities

* **Expert hand-to-hand combatant/Martial artist:** As a former soldier on Mars, J'onn knows several Martian fighting techniques due to his time on Mars. He later battled Superman after he was infected by Red Kryptonite, using a combination of his skills and phasing abilities in just a matter of minutes.

#### Weaknesses

* **Kryptonian minds:** Kryptonians are immune to J'onn's mind reading abilities.
* **Acid:** J'onn can be badly hurt by certain forms of acid.
* **Fire:** Like all Martians, J'onn is very sensitive to fire. While shape-shifting, any part of his body that comes close enough to touch fire partially transforms back into its true form, which could be used to expose him and even weaken him.
* **Power-dampening tech:** Just like with any other alien, J'onn's powers can be dampened by technology specifically designed to weaken his powers.
* **Inorganic Minds:** If J'onn tries to read an inorganic mind, it will cause him immense pain.
