J'onn J'onzz, also sometimes known as "the Martian Manhunter", is a character from Justice League/Justice League Unlimited and is a minor recurring character in AniCity. He is the last living Martian and one of the founding members of the Justice League.

## Personality

J'onn is a serious and level-headed voice of reason for the League. He always speaks with politeness to his associates, both young and old, and has not shown any sign of anger or ego; although he can be stern at times.

## History

### Pre-Series

On Mars so many years ago, J'onn lived a normal life with his wife, My'ria'h, and his two children. However, the planet soon came under invasion under an alien force called "The Imperium", resulting in planet-wide war that took the lives of J'onn's family, J'onn himself took part in the war, and was a member of the strike team that launched his people's final, desperate offensive. He succeeded in releasing the nerve gas that placed the invaders in suspended animation. As the last known surviving member of the strike team, and of the entire Martian race, J'onn then sealed the invaders' underground headquarters to keep them entombed and stood guard over it for 500 years.

While J'onn was in a hibernation cycle, astronauts from Earth, including J. Allen Carter, accidentally revived the invaders. J'onn awoke, and managed to escape to Earth in an effort to warn humanity of the Imperium. Once on Earth, J'onn was captured by Imperium forces posing as members of the U.S. military.

After the Imperium began their invasion of Earth, J'onn reached out telepathically to several heroes on Earth: Superman, the Green Lantern John Stewart, Hawkgirl, Wonder Woman, and the Flash. Superman and Batman, having already encountered the Invaders, freed J'onn, and were joined by the other heroes he had contacted. Banding together, the newly formed team managed to destroy the Imperium and save Earth. Mindful of future threats, Superman proposed the formation of the Justice League. J'onn was initially hesitant, but Superman - who, as the sole survivor of Krypton, empathized with J'onn's plight - assured him that he didn't have to be alone anymore.

## Powers & Abilities

* Intellect

As the product of an advanced civilization, J'onn also possesses a wealth of scientific knowledge and technological expertise. After his long experience of war, he is a brilliant field medic, and his telepathic abilities make him a great counselor and empath.

* Superhuman Strength

Under normal circumstances, J'onn's strength is inferior to that of someone like Superman's, but his strength can be augmented by his phase-shifting and size-manipulation powers. Hence, he might actually be as strong as Supes, if not stronger, depending on the extent to which he used his powers.

* Superhuman Speed

J'onn is not only able to fly but is able to do so at speeds of the level of meta-humans.

* Telepathy

J'onn has the incredible ability to read minds and project his thoughts. He is a powerful telepathic especially with physical contact as he is able to get into one's mind by tear apart their mental barriers with almost relative ease. In addition to telepathy, J'onn could apparently sense magical energy, at least when being actively used or at very high levels.

* Shapeshifting & Molecular Change

J'onn has the power to assume the shape of almost any organism, humanoid, and even object he can think of. He has shown himself able to increase his size significantly, but not to decrease it. In addition to that, he's able to alter his density at the molecular level, which in practice allows him to become invisible, pass through solid objects (and vice versa), or become invulnerably solid. An increase in his density results in a blue aura that increases his strength and invulnerability on par with that of Ol' Big Blue. This also allows J'onn to fully recover after sustaining severe physical damage, such as being torn apart into two.

## Notes

J'onn is the only member of the original JL founders to have a major costume change in this series. The design is based off of the costume he used in the comics following the "Infinite Crisis" event series (a design Young Justice fans might recognize), with the "character model" itself being based off of artwork done by Deviantart user "Azraeuz".
