Powers

Martian Manhunter has a wide variety of superhuman powers, many of which are similar to those of Superman and Wonder Woman, including super strength, super speed, invulnerability and flight. As Superman, Martian Manhunter also has "Martian vision" (a term that means both the ability to see through solid objects and the ability to generate optical power and heat).Superman once called "the most powerful being on earth." During the 1990s, it was stated that the origin of your flight and "Martian vision" is a form of telekinesis (he was occasionally demonstrated more traditional uses telekinesis to levitate and animate objects during his Detective Comics and House of Mystery Appearances). His vision was shown Mars to hit opponents back to the impact could be due to their nature telekinetic. The Martian Manhunter also possesses the power of transmutation, which he uses for various purposes (for example, to get human-like or monstrous, stretching its members, growing to immense size). He can change the chemical composition of your body to mimic various materials such as steel or stone.J'onn can become invisible, and is also able to become intangible, so as to pass harmlessly through solid objects. He is a powerful telepath, able to perceive the thoughts of others and project his own thoughts. He often acts as a switchboard "between minds in order to coordinate the actions of the Justice League. The extent of their telepathic abilities is large, several times he connected to the planet Earth. He has demonstrated the ability to regenerate, once able to regenerate only his severed hand, but at high pressure (due to mass loss that he found it necessary to incorporate new elements from sand of Mars). Early appearances of the character can show you how to breathe underwater, the last time he showed that power was when he found Zauriel the sea of ​​San Francisco in JLA # 6. The Hunter has sometimes been said to have nine senses, but these additional senses are poorly defined and generally ignored by most writers. In addition to his superhuman powers, the Hunter is also a very capable and skilled detective. As Batman mentions in his file, that "in many ways, Martian Manhunter is like an amalgam of Superman and the Dark Knight himself."

Weakness

One of the features of the Martian Manhunter's signature is its vulnerability to fire. Although an element of the character since his first appearances, the writers have portrayed with great inconsistency throughout his long career of the character. In some cases, is portrayed as an inherent susceptibility to physical Martian race, while at other times, it has been explained as a personal psychosomatic disorder. The degree of vulnerability has also been extremely inconsistent, in some cases, able to strip their powers and kill him, while at other times simply to inflict pain or delirium with no real danger of physical harm. This weakness has been diminished or cured in more than one occasion, only to have to come back with a vengeance in a story later. Thus, it is difficult to define. In his first appearances, the character was shown as having a weakness to fire while in his native Martian form. Over time, this was developed into account the character pyrophobia with the fire to be "the Achilles heel of Mars," equivalent to Superman's weakness to Kryptonite. Exposure to fire typically causes J'onn to lose its ability to maintain his fitness, 'meltdown' in plasma pool of twisted green. A portrait explained the weakness of the flame was tied Martian telepathy with the fire causing so much chaos in the minds Martian collapse. It was recently revealed, during the storyline Trial By Fire, that this fear was instilled at the genetic level by the Guardians of the Universe 20,000 years ago, to weaken what was then a very aggressive species to the brink of interstellar conquest-this act to divide the race the Green and White Martians, although not made the third race known as the Yellow Martians. At the end of the arc, this deficiency is partially removed, with J'onn explaining that fires only the psychic significance went from bad to him, as the flames of passion or suffering (this was apparently a roundabout way to limit its weakness in flames pyrokinetic or mystical in nature).Following Infinite Crisis, and a year later, it was shown that the weakness of fire J'onn has changed once again. Martians have no fear of fire, but they lose their powers in his presence, physical fire and intense heat can, in
