Darkseid once also took an interest in the Martian race. He sent Glorious Godfrey to gain the Martians' trust, then kidnapped legions of them. When the rogue Metron stepped in to aid the Martians, J'onn J'onzz accompanied him to Apokolips where his people were freed. (Martian Manhunter v.3 #33) J'onzz remained on Apokolips for many years, studying with underground leader Himon, and sparring with master assassin, Kanto. (#34)
