Supergirl Season 1: 10 Big Questions After 'Stranger Visitor From Another Planet'

4. Is J€™onn Suicidal?

There€™s nothing worse than a suicidal Martian, apparently. After we find out J€™onn J€™onzz€™s horrific backstory, complete with the brutal death of his family, it€™s explained that he is the very last surviving member of his race. As he puts it himself, he€™s lived for 317 years, and he€™s had to witness some truly horrendous acts during his life. As he gears up for a confrontation with the White Martian, we see J€™onn explain to Kara and Alex that€™s tired of living. This is a man who has seen it all, done it all, and is now a lonely, mournful shell of his former self. Is it now the case that we have a suicidal Martian Manhunter on our hands? J€™onn seems to have been brought round to his senses by the time this latest episode comes to a close, but there€™s certainly a lot going on in the mind of this long-time DC favourite.
