Justice League #17 had a retcon with J'onn and Lex being friends for a brief period in their childhood. It was certainly interesting that Lex can't remember it anymore, I think it demonstrates how much he's changed and can't go back to what he was, but I'm scratching my head as to how this supposed to fit in with the story in DC's winter special where J'onn met Kal Kent while protecting the young Clark from King Kosmos. J'onn was clearly an adult in that story when Clark was a boy, and Clark and Lex should be roughly the same age, or separated by a few years at most. Or does that story take place in the pre-Flashpoint continuity?
It's mention when Lionel is first talking to J'onn, that they used Time Travel to capture him. Presumably the Martians had already been wiped out in the present, so they had to go back in time to find one to experiment on.
