"Martian Manhunter, you can almost do anything with
him because there hasn’t been a definitive take on him yet. We’ll see what
ultimately happens, but to me, he’s always been like Superman, except he wasn’t
raised by human parents, so he doesn’t have the human element to him. He has
all the crazy strength and powers, but he also has a disconnect from humanity. There’s that element, which I think is going to be
interesting to play with, his true alien-ness. You forget Superman is an alien
sometimes, but with Martian Manhunter you don’t because of the way he looks.
He’s like a man out of place in a way."
"To me, we’re going to see him use those in a way we haven’t
really seen him use them before. In a way, he’s going to be the ultimate
super-spy. [Laughs] That’s probably another reason Geoff asked me to do it,
because he knows I love spies. We came up with a neat way of using Martian
Manhunter where he’s using his powers in a tricky way."
