Ha ha time for John Jones Manhunter from MARS
Some Silver Age goodness about an alien stranded on Earth who uses his fantastic powers to solve crimes and keep the truth about himself hidden.
In which J'onn encounters another thing that disables his powers
Good old Space Prison.
I like this period, for all the crazy powers the limitations of needing to keep himself secret and the abundance of fire makes for some interesting stuff.
J'onn's actual detective skills are questionable but at least he has fun
In this story, J'onn calls home. This sort of thing would later be retcon'd as severe grief induced delusions. Which is kinda sad.
J'onn pulls out full shapeshifting for the first time.
Diane Meade first appearance, a long standing supporting character for J'onn
The Martian Manhunter stands revealed and marks his inevitable transition to Green Superman
Here is J'onn's brother a lovable scamp by the name of T'omm Jonzz.
Need to take a break, if it doesn't survive hope you enjoyed some of it.

He sure takes being shunted away from his entire life for an indefinite period of time pretty well.
And I'm back. The rest of the detective comics images aren't being cooperative, but they were mostly Zook stories anyway, so you're spared that.
J'onn wouldn't get too much attention, he would eventually rejoin the survivors of the martian civil war and forgotten to the Mars II colony.
UNTIL
The Dematteis and Badger mini that changed everything
