10 Worst Things Martian Manhunter Has Ever Done

10. He Killed The Man Who Brought Him To Earth

Years ago, Dr. Saul Erdel was playing around with with a "robot brain" and managed to teleport a Martian to Earth. This Martian was J’onn J’onzz.

When Erdel saw the giant alien, he died from a heart attack. J’onn believes that Erdel died because of his grotesque appearance. As a result, J’onn took on a humanoid form, which he usually maintains while he is on Earth.

With Erdel dead, J’onn had no idea how to get back to his home planet. As a result, he decided to live among the Earthlings until they reached a point where they had the technology that would allow him to return to Mars.

Okay, killing a man isn't ideal but Martian Manhunter didn't mean to do it and Erdel's death was kind of his own fault since he transported J'onn to Earth against his will.

Also, Erdel mentions that he has had a weak heart for years so he should have seen a doctor before tinkering with unknown tech. Nevertheless, this moment is worth mentioning since Manhunter's presence killed a man moments after he appeared on our planet.
