Martian Manhunter deserves his own solo film played by Idres Elba.

He should get his own movie.

I actually agree, Manhunter is easily one of, if not the most, underrated heroes to date. You forgot to mention his incredible level of intelligence. Many times the JLA turned to him for strategies or advice, sometimes even over Batman. Also, he makes a brief appearance in the show Smallville; where he is both extremely powerful and knowledgeable.

Martian Manhunter to me is more underrated than Aquaman.

THANK YOU! FINALLY SOMEONE GIVES HIM SOME RECOGNITION

DC should stop riding batman's jock strap and give Martian manhunter time in the big screen. and stop putting batman in every movie/comic they throw out.

The Martian Manhunter is one of the most underrated characters in all of fiction not just comics.

Can't blame people for wanting the speed of the Flash, I mean you can do anything, time travel, vibrate through attacks, run through walls, and save people in a matter of picoseconds.

You forgot the best thing about Martian Manhunter- his love of/addiction to Oreos ("Cocos")

Who’s here after watching the snyders cut of justice league?

The dcau version of man hunter will always be my favorite

martian manhunter alone could probably take out the entire avengers on his own. he could wipe the entire hulk persona from bruce banner's head, easily dismantle all of the iron man suits, intangibility would render black panther, captains america and marvel, falcon, black widow and hawkeye useless. thor's hammer too would be rendered useless by the intangibility and he could change thor's mentality and way of thinking, making him unworthy to wield mjolnir. due to the control of his own size, antman wouldn't be a problem and aris has already established that manhunter could beat vision. spiderman could be defeated by manhunter simply by wiping his memory of any powers, or making him forget he has them. alternatively, iron man could be defeated in a similar way, by making him forget how to operate the suit(s). martian manhunter is OP AF.

Seriously, every time you do this, you say "This is one of my favourite superheroes".... are they ALL one of your favourites? :)

Martian Manhunter deserves to have his own animated show

i think batman said it best "i've got a 10 million dollar hunk of rock to deal with the one from metropolis. For you all i need is a 5 cent book of matches"

first time learning about MM was during the JL show in the early 00's. he was like a swiss army knife. always having another power to learn about.

Martian Manhunter would make for an interesting addition to the DC Cinematic Universe and get Peter Mensah to play him because for some reason when I think Martian Manhunter I can't help but think 3 things 1. He has to be tall 2. He has to be slender 3. He has to have a deep voice He doesn't have to be played by a black actor but considering he has been voiced by black males, even drawn as a black male in the animated movies like doom, I think Peter Mensah is right for the role.

all people complaining that he says every comic book character is his favorite is because he's been reading them for so many years and he mostly does videos on his favorites cause there his favorites and theres a lot of awesome characters

Honestly, most of J'onn's physical abilities (invisibility, intangibility, size changing, strength enhancing) come from (I don't remember what I read that explained this, but it was the best one I'd ever heard) his, and most Green Martians', ability to affect the density of his body. When he needs more strength, he literally takes in spare, random particles from the matter around him, and puts them to use. There was a particular story where he was helping the League hold back a flood, and he had to be careful that he didn't make himself too big, at the risk of taking too much physical stability from the lands he was trying to protect. Pretty awesome. The other thing that I absolutely love most about MM is that he's not only as strong and durable as Superman (with even more, and more fun powers), but thanks to his vast intelligence, and helped by his *decades* as a human detective, he possesses detective capabilities on par with the Bat (Batman has said as much many times).

Really wish Martian Manhunter had his own series in the New 52! dont you agree?

Who else like manhunter more then superman

One of the most powerful and yet one of the most underrated character in DC universe 🔥🔥🔥

HE DESERVES HIS OWN MOVIE. No one ever talks about him, he won't be in the JL movies, most likely won't get a solo movie for a long time. He's amazing on Supergirl

I think he deserves his own movie and animated series. On a side note a video game with his level of shapeshifting would be awesome.

I feel like the justice league cartoon really downplayed his powers

Love me some MM, so glad he was added to the Injustice game. I'm really hoping they make him more of a main player in Injustice 2. I also wouldn't mind playing as Reverse Flash and a Red Lantern too.

I like him, but superman is still my favorite. I just hate how much superman doesn't even compare his silver age version. I agree that the man hunter is definitely underated.

One of my favorite Batman lines is from the Justice League New Frontier film when Batman first meets Martian Manhunter. He tells him something like, "I have a billion dollar piece of rock for the one from krypton, but all I need for you is a five cent book of matches."

Most underrated superhero in the DC comics

Who's here after Zack Snyder's Justice League? 😌

You are right! He is GREATLY underrated! Did you even mention his ability to phase through walls and stuff? That is a greater power than many people think!

I love the Martian Manhunter. Such a great character that is highly under used. I wish he would get some screen time in the DCCU

No doubt at all. By far the most under-rated Superhero of all time!!

Who is here after Syndercut 😎 👇

My boy J’onn deserves more respect

Came here after #thesnydercut Can’t wait for the next JL movie

Martian Manhunter is hands down one of the greatest superheroes of all time, at least IMO.

"characters rarely stay dead in comics" Lian Harper, not so much

After watching the Zack Snyder Cut of Justice League, I had to come back and rewatch this episode on Martian Manhunter. With that being said I was very surprised that Zack Snyder included a couple Martian Manhunter cameos. It totally makes sense considering Martian Manhunter was a founding member of the Justice League. I thought it was so cool that General Swanwick has been Martian Manhunter this whole time.

He's so underrated it's a crime shame

Manhunter should’ve been with the justice league and cyborg with the titans

martian manhunter is my fav super hero

Okay, I get it. Makes sense why he doesn't like fire, he has a phobia to it, he isn't actually weak to it in a physical sense. Interesting

Gets teleported to alien planet, can't find a way back to mars. But can fly and survive in the vacuum of space..Aight den john..

Yes. We are here after watching the snyder cut!

HBOMax Martian Manhunter series. Focused on his time in earth as a black detective. Set in the 60s.

Love Martian Manhunter so much ❤️‍🔥🛸

Thank you! I've been waiting for this one! Now, can you do The Vision?

Yall know why we’re here

Martian Manhunter is my favorite!!!! He's so OP!

He truly is more powerful then most aside from High Level Magical Users, High Level Force Users, High Level Cosmic Beings, And High Level Toon Force Users while everyone else should be flies or roaches to him including Green Lanterns even Hal Jordan as Parralex And Kryptonians even Superboy Prime.

You think a guy that powerful would have just flown back to Mars.

Who's here after ZSJL??

I love Martian Manhunter

you said Batman was your favorite superhero now it's martian man Hunter

it would be nice if you could tell, why he sits behind the watchtower organising rather than fighting (he once said its cuz he hates humanity, but would be nice if that side of him could be explored more)

What issue did Martian manhunter find the being that destroyed his planet???

Martian Manhunter is basically a Martian Superman

Omg MM is so awesome. It's about time someone showed him some love

You forgot to mention how much Martian Manhunter loves Oreos. He's like the Cookie Monster of the DC universe.

martian manhunter is so underated compared to wonder woman

saw this manhunter on zack snyders. dont kniw thus man

One thing makes most dangerous is he can copy the others super powers by touching them

I LOVE WATCHING THESE VIDEOS I LEARN SO MUCH THANK YOU

I LOVE MARTIN MANHUNTER

Hey variant comics and everyone out there who do you guys think is stronger Superman or Martian Manhunter cause I personally think Martian Manhunter is a tad stronger with density control and shapeshifting

History of Lobo please.

Thank you solo much always wanted a history of martian manhunter episode thank you Aris and everyone else

History of justice league dark JLD plz

lol im here after the Snyder Cut.

Just finished reading the new Martian Manhunter Vol. 1 that's part of the post New 52 stuff and it's absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend reading it.

Martian Manhunter needs a solo film in the DCEU

Do a list of Martian man hunter villains

can you do like a origin or a brief review of ma'alefa'ak?

I'm so glad I found Arris and variant I love watching these videos and it makes it even better that he's also a batman fan like me just saying

Thanks, Arris. Taught me a lot about Martian Manhunter. Since my only exposure to him was the Justice League TV Series, I didn't really think that much about him. But now I can truly say WOW. Definitely piqued my interest BIG TIME. But that said, here my weekly WATCHMEN episode request! WATCHMEN PLEAZE.

Yes, awesome! Thanks Arris!

Great video

This March 1 Martian man hunter vol 1 comes out and the issues for it that came out in 2015 are amazing

Thank you thank you thank you for this. He is one of my favs and I think woefully underrated. Same goes to the Silver Surfer, although that new series is awesome!

do the history of Harley Quin pls

Who's here after the new Justice League?

Snyder Cut this Thursday and after the trailer 2 drop gotta watch this to refresh the memory 💪🏼

I think that Martian Manhunter is so powerful that it makes him difficult to write. Sometimes it seems like his power is, "Superman and Batman, only better." He is given a huge weakness to compensate for some of this. In someways it is similar to Superman's weakness to Kryptonite, only Fire is extremely common, while Kryptonite is actually rare. He is an awesome character, but there are times where I get the impression that he was forced onto a Justice League writer who does not know what to actually do with him. Martian Manhunter is sometimes used as a way to showcase the power of a new threat; this strategy also has the added bonus of not causing a more iconic and marketable character to look weak.

This was posted on my birthday! 😄

Just look at my profile pic.....this video is an instant like.

When I was younger I thought that Martian Manhunter was weak af. I mean most scenes that I can remember him in was him being bodied bad.

Martian manhunter is one of my favorite DC superheroes

Who here is watching this, after the Justice league Snyder's cut

I hate how weak CW renders J'onn. He's one of the most powerful in the DCU, why restrict that?

I didn't know who the Martian Man-hunter was until I saw him in Smallville abd then later Justice League, I thought his powers were cool and he's strong like Superman.

Arris I have the same holiday tradition in watching "Christmas with the Joker" as well! Really does get you into the Christmas spirit!

I love Martian man hunter

Justice League 2021 brought me here 😀

Yes JL, JL Unlimited, and Young Justice are on Netflix. I'm hoping that's where season of YJ airs. But CW works too.

I always thought of him as a green, bald Superman knock-off but the Justice League animated series changed my mind. He was one of my favourite characters on the show and I did read his solo series as a result. J'onn is a character who deserves to be in the limelight more than he is, both in comics and movies/television/animation! I'd also like to suggest a "History Of..." video for another under-appreciated DC character and that's Red Tornado.

Here after justice league

Well I'm late 😁😁😁 After zach's cut

can we get an updated version of this as the story line of martian manhunter being a weapon made by the white martians has come out

I usually watch the Justice League episode "Comfort and Joy" around Christmas. Starring Superman, GL, Hawkgirl and of course Martian Manhunter
