Martian Manhunter: Identity by Steve Orlando

2.0

Meh. I understand what the creative team was going for, and could even go so far as say they did a good job with it, but it all just seems so basic by the end. Somewhere around the midway point, amidst all the weird genetics and midcontrol and hand-wringing anguish, this series just got too dopey for its own good, and I lost interest. I adore the Martian Manhunter, but this just seems to miss the mark with fleshing him out. In the attempt to give him his own angst origin, they sort of squeezed out all the things that makes John J'onzz unique.

Just your garden-variety superhero comic. Nothing special.
