Type: Computer simulation
Being the fourth and final part of Jor-El's post-Crisis modeling of alternate rocket destinations for his baby Kal-El...
This week: Becoming the Martian Manhunter
Landing site: Mars (oooh, just missed!) or perhaps just a far-away planet the Martians colonized long ago
Adoptive parents: Unknown -- the computer simulation is really breaking down now
A new life: For some reason, Superman is green. How? Why? Jor-El's files corrupted...
Final score: I (incomplete)
Sadly, the Superman of Mars is never fully realized as Superman's mind breaks down, but his mind merges with that of the actual J'Onn J'Onzz (out to rescue him) and they become a true, physical Amalgam until Kal-El's mind is returned to his body. And thanks to J'Onn's shapeshifting skills, he really looks like the above. Now, this is the last "One Man JLA" combo, but the short arc did yield another Superman. Continued tomorrow!
