For readers looking for something challenging and different, it doesn't get any better than Martian Manhunter. You need to seek it out whenever you're at your local comic store. Read Full Review

In general both do an excellent job, very worthy for an iconic hero as it is The Martian Manhunter, well-deserved comments for this duo and this awesome comic. Read Full Review

Another issue, another look into the lonely life of J'onn J'onnz. My favorite thing about this book is that it's really enabled J'onn to wear his heart on his sleeve. In the first 2 issues, that was solely for the sake of the audience. But now we get to see the first time that he opens up to a human and it's a beautiful thing. This is the wholesome Martian goodness I've always wanted. Read Full Review

Riley Rossmo's art is sublime and brilliant in both composition and detail. Every page looks amazing and captures the tone of this story perfectly. Read Full Review

Orlando and Rossmo continue to work together as well as ever and Martian Manhunter's third issue continues to exceed expectations for the character and those of the superhero genre in general, even if this issue is slightly more conventional than the previous two. Read Full Review

Steve Orlando, Riley Rossmo, and Ivan Plascencia continue their journey into the life and times of J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter. It's the story of an alien, but speaks to the humanity in all of us. I cannot recommend this book highly enough! Read Full Review

This feels like a slow-burn noir with some fantastic character work, and I can't wait to see where it goes next. Read Full Review

For a lot of other creative teams, an issue like this would kill the momentum of the book but Riley Rossmo has such a singular visual style that it's impossible to stop turning the pages. Read Full Review

Readers of all kinds will find something to love in this genre-bending mash-up of True Detective, The Thing, and superheroes. Read Full Review

Containing a solid piece of backstory and a development of the Diane/J'Onn relationship which resists trite and too easy closure, this issue is the best of the series so far. Rossmo's art is effective and atmospheric; Orlando's presentation of J'Onn's dignity and sense of responsibility – to the man whose identity he has taken and to the victims of the crimes he's trying to solve – is thoughtful and engaging. This series might have just found its footing. Read Full Review

Rossmos art is an acquired taste that is not without its charm. It might mutate the impact of the story in places, but it makes for a really distinctive impression that should find a nice rhythm as the mini-series pulls into its second quarter next issue. With the backstory fully-rendered, the series has a chance to build into something substantial. Read Full Review

I fell as if now the real story can get under way. Think of Superman: The Movie. Once the origin was told, cast and crew could focus on presenting an original adventure. Same thing here, and believe me, there are far worse storytelling templates to follow. Read Full Review

Slightly less amazing than the first two issues, since we trade the outright weirdness of Mars woth the familiar ground of J'Onn arriving on Earth. But still amazing.

I think I liked this issue more because we didn’t go back to Mars. Does that make me Marsist?

The best issue so far. This was pretty good. I think a lot of that has to do with there being no Mars. Although, the ending does not get me excited. I dread next issue because of it.

Getting used to the art, it was good. Enjoyed majority of the issue which I was shocked by that. Enjoyed the backstory very much.
