Ma'alefa'ak
for Ma'alefa'ak in MARTIAN MANHUNTER
Suggested by jakubduda
One of the last surviving members of his species, the Martian Manhunter wields such powers as the ability to shape-shift, telepathy, flight, invisibility, phasing, super-strength and Martian vision. His only weakness in an inherent fear of fire, which all Martians have. All of these abilities make him one of the most powerful beings on the planet. But it is his brilliant mind and steady leadership style, along with his gentle soul, that have made him a beloved member of the League in all of its incarnations. Indeed, if there is one being whom the rest of the DC Super Hero community looks up to as their elder statesman and the voice of wisdom, it is the Manhunter from Mars. Although J’onn J’onzz suffered great tragedies in his long existence, including the deaths of his wife, their child and almost his entire race, the Martian Manhunter passionately defends Earth, fighting to make sure his adopted home planet never suffers the same fate as his beloved Mars. A devotee of Darkseid, Malefic created a plague that wiped out nearly all Martians. His older twin brother J'onn opposed him and they thought each other dead after a pitched battle. Years later, Ma'alefa'ak found his brother to be alive on Earth and followed to torment him once more
