    Get his own New 52 title anytime soon? I feel like it could be possible, seeing as how they are finally releasing the trade of Ostrander's run, and how MM's role has gotten bigger IMO in JLA. Any thoughts?

    Not likely, considering his token black guy replacement is stuck being the justice league's secretary

    How would that have any effect on MM getting his own series

    It's possible. If the backups in JLA get a really good response, it could happen.

    I just don't understand how characters like Batwoman and Batwing have solo series but MM doesn't. Is it just because Geoff Johns hates MM?

    MM could have been on par with Superman concerning Popularity it really is just the sad fact that Superman resembles us more, in which people can share a better relation to.

    I would absolutely love one.

    Geoff claims that MMH is one of his favs.

    Martian Manhunter is one of the most highly profiled inconsistently written characters of all time. A solo could redeem him. He is a great character but writers just don't know what to do with him. I mean, DC just rebooted and they've already given him two different origin stories in the New52: One in Stormwatch and now his new origin in the backups of JLA.

    To answer your question though. No, I don't think he'll get a solo series. But I'd love to see one.

    Written by Greg Pak (who's first issue of Batman/Superman made me a fan) and art by David Finch.
