* The Martian Manhunter has been described as "the Swiss Army knife of superheroes." He possesses many similar powers to those of Superman -- super-human strength, stamina, durability, flight, speed and "Martian" vision -- at levels close to those of Superman himself. In various altercations with Superman, the Martian Manhunter is usually able to stun the Man of Steel, but ultimately loses the fight. He has fought Captain Marvel to a standstill using nothing more than his strength.
* He is also able to shapeshift (adopting human form, elongating his limbs, growing to immense size, and so on), turn invisible (in most Silver Age sources none of his other powers work while he is invisible), and alter his density (increasing it to become tougher and stronger, decreasing it to become incorporeal and thus able to pass through solid objects such as walls).
* In addition to his vast physical powers, J'onn is also a very powerful telepath, often acting as a "switchboard" for other JLAers in order to coordinate the team's actions. His defeat of Despero in JLI revealed that he is able to use his telepathy to completely submerge another being's mind in a permanent "wish-fulfillment" scenario, but that this is such a strain that he was only able to do it once — in Martian culture, this was a last gift to the dying from their loved ones.[citation needed]
* He also possesses 9 different senses, though these are ill-defined and often forgotten.
* For most of his existence, J'onn was shown to have a deep-seated pyrophobia. Numerous explanations have been given for this over the years, usually (but not always) portraying it as a racial trait of Martians. Most recently it was revealed, during the Trial By Fire storyline (JLA nos. 84-89), that this fear was instilled on a genetic level by the Guardians of the Universe 20,000 years ago, when they split the original "Burning" Martians into the Green Martians and White Martians. The Guardians instilled this fear because the psychic suffering of others, combined with the physical conditions of an inferno, allow the barbaric, ruthless, and brilliant "Burning" Martians to asexually reproduce. As a species the Burning Martians existed only "to cause suffering and burn and breed," but if they were too afraid to go near fire, they could not reproduce.
* At the end of the Trial by Fire arc, J'onn told Superman of the changes he'd gone through. "The flame and I are again bound, body and soul... but not as before... I can withstand simple fire without pain. Candle flame, or a burning forest, it matters not unless -- they are flames of psychic significance. Flames of suffering, as The Burning created... flames of passion, as an arsonist might create... flames of love. Those... those most of all I cannot bear."

i disagree. This episode was very good, it tested clark's strength to make a decision on his own. Yes he got a little help from marshan-man but he needed to chose. For once he had control over his feelings for lana and ended up saving himself.
